Aug 30, 2017 at 17:19 | comment | added | Murch Mod | The url shorteners created by Stackexchange are fine, they will only ever link to our own content, so we always know that they are safe. URL shortener linking to external content obfuscate the destination, though, and especially since we are talking about money here, it would be an obvious attack vector to direct people at malware. That's why we prohibit them. The meta post was not about your posts. :) | |
Aug 30, 2017 at 17:19 | comment | added | Murch Mod | I'm sorry, maybe that was a bit to sharp. If you just mark and copy text on the site, links would not be copied. You'll have to go to "edit" your post and copy the content of the edit window, then you'd be able to copy the post including the links. :) | |
Aug 30, 2017 at 16:04 | comment | added | Mine | In fact, I recently saw your post bitcoin.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/861/…, and thought, apparently mistakenly, "Oh, that must be why they removed the links on my post, because I had linked them in a small way and they were concerned I might be putting in inappropriate links". Yes, I understand now, I was wrong. I had no malice whatsoever. | |
Aug 30, 2017 at 16:02 | comment | added | Mine | ! @Murch I did not misrepresent anything!Your description of the situation sounds reasonable, but I was totally unaware that the links even stood the possibility of being "erased" when I moved the post. I honestly, & truly, thought a mod had erased the links. I had no idea they could have been missing! I thought a mod had intentionally removed the actual links for whatever reason and thought it would have been hostile of me to put them back in as a result. Obviously, I misunderstood. I'm not sure I fully understood the option of the system moving the post or thought I should do it myself, idr | |

Aug 23, 2017 at 16:11 | comment | added | Murch Mod | Please don't misrepresent what happened: you deleted the post yourself on Aug 14th at 9:21pm, no mod interacted with it before then. At that point only a few regular community members had suggested that it should be closed as off-topic and moved to meta instead. If you had agreed with the off-topic flag instead of deleting the post, it would have been moved here automatically. — Instead you probably just copied it and reposted it here, which lost the links. Nick just edited the post here to add notices that there used to be links that were missing now. | |
Aug 23, 2017 at 16:06 | comment | added | Mine | That's REALLY weird as I know they were. Interesting...iirc it was the same mod who pinned my post who removed the links. Thank you for adding them back. I assumed he had a reason like he didn't want me comparing posters or something. | |
Aug 19, 2017 at 19:55 | comment | added | Murch Mod | According to the edit history of this question, they were never part of this post. I assume that you simply copied over the text from the main site and thus the links were not part of it. I've added them back. | |

Added links back

Aug 17, 2017 at 23:18 | comment | added | Mine | They were removed by someone else, I think a moderator or something, so I merely identified they were removed so people at least had some context in my statements regarding them. | |
Aug 17, 2017 at 5:43 | comment | added | Murch Mod | Why do you mention the links as being removed? If you're going to talk about them, shouldn't you link them? If you don't know which ones they were, they are still visible to me on your deleted post on the main page. | |
