@What_Exit cited the proper post, but just to be extra clear - you can’t include a live link from _this_ thread because it would generate a direct link with the implied insult of the title in the other thread. Other Pit threads, with titles in-line with the current rules, _can_ have live links, though of course, it may be in poor taste.

From @Miller’s own follow-up:

> On reconsideration, I removed this bit from my previous post. “Don’t make links that could possibly be construed as insults,” is a bit more restrictive than I want this to be. The point is to avoid explicit (if unintentional) insults showing up in non-Pit forums, not to completely firewall the Pit off from other forums. If there’s a tangent in the Troll thread about banana bread, and someone links to a really good banana bread recipe in MPSIMS, that should be fine. Stuff that might look like an insult if someone doesn’t take the two seconds to click a link to get the context isn’t an issue.
