I've noticed lately that if I post a link in a reply, either to another (non-banned) site, or to another thread within GLP, I get banned from posting. I can still read the site, just not post.

After politely requesting unbanning, they do and I am back to reading and posting. As long as there isn't a link within the reply, that is.

Today I tried posting a link within my reply (again, a non-banned site) and this time, I wasn't banned but my reply didn't go thru. I tried three times. Then I tried replying without a link and it did go thru

Why can't I post links?
