URL quotingFollow

#1 Sep 05 2007 at 6:33 AM Rating: Good
When I link a URL in a post, it writes the address of the URL into the quote itself.

Ok, this isn't very clear, so let's say I wanna link the film The Godfather, I click on URL, Control+V the adress, and it gives me this:

http://www.imdb.com/find?s=all&q=godfather

It's a bit annoying, since I have to delete the bit in the middle in order for it to look like this: The Godfather.

Is there a reason why it's like this? It's not forum-breaking, but it would make it easier if you left it blank, or wrote URL, like it doesn when you use the Small Text feature.

It's something the boards admin/devs did recently. Actuall all the bb tags are using an auto fill now. Best thing you can do it type it out yourself to avoid having to erase the extra information.
