No, you misunderstand. It isn't tinyurl or bit.ly sneaking bad things into your posts, it is the potential that exists for someone, anyone, to hide a malicious URL using that tool. I'm just offering you a possible reason why some of us aren't following suit. Making a link clickable with the html code, as I've been doing for 10 years has almost the same potential for abuse.

A lady came up to me on the street and pointed at my suede jacket. "You know a cow was murdered for that jacket?" she sneered. I replied in a psychotic tone, "I didn't know there were any witnesses. Now I'll have to kill you too."
