Dear well,

I wish to be able to send hyperlinks and format private messages using HTML. To achieve this, I'm sure you'll use your magical water-holding powers to make PM's more like post forms which give message notifications.

Thank you.

P.S. you may be able to use your magical water-holding powers to enable RTE for PM's...that way people can't fuck shit up via PM as easily.

I'm pretty sure this has been rejected a few times.

I couldn't find anywhere it was rejected. There have been ideas vaguely similar in the past (very broad vague there)

Edit:: RTE has been suggested. Make PMs the same a similar but separate submit form as posts 3J - it'll make hyperlinking possible. That's all I want is hyperlinking xD

Woohoo, this means I can finally up my PM-phishing game. But seriously though, I don't know how much work this is to implement, but why would hyperlinks be that much more useful than just sending regular links?

I guess it would save three seconds.

hyperlinks > plain text link

Though this is an eloquently written and well-argued statement, I'm still not really convinced...

Allow me to rephrase:

HYPERLINKS > plain text link

convinced?

I'm sorry, can you speak up a bit? I'm not wearing my glasses.

WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT?! I'VE PROVIDED A WORLD OF EVIDENCE! I LITERALLY GAVE YOU A MATHEMATICAL PROOF AS PERSUASION!

Pfft, mathematics are also just an opinion. I saw some alternative mathematics on my Facebook feed that said hyperlinks are overrated and, quite frankly, sad.

Did you make that? xD

nah I googled it and it just happened to be the first result

You look a bit tense, did you get enough sleep this night?

I've gotten 0 sleep this night :P

Why can't all derails be this classy and entertaining?

Apparently, all they need is more Romulus, haha!

Hear, hear!

(Raises ale mug in agreement)

Hyperlinks are for chum buckets. To be honest this would just save a few seconds and the work needed to make it wouldn't be worth it in my opinion.
