No Auto Linking of URLS in Blog Comments
On other parts of the site URLs seemed to be auto-linked, but not in blog comments. Is this a spam prevention measure or just an oversight. It's confusing to have an inconsistent policy, especially as blog comments can't be edited.

Inappropriate?Hi Andrew,
The blog comments have our simple text editor, which has a link option.
I'm not sure if you're referring to something else, feel free to contact us at the Ning Help Center if you need one on one help.
Thanks

Inappropriate?Some of the other parts of Ning (from memory, the forums and group discussions) also have an editor with link option, but actually it's not necessary to manually do the link as URLs are auto-linked.
This behavior is inconsistent so confusing. Would much prefer to have auto-linking.
Anyway - not such a big issue.
I’m moving on

Inappropriate?Hi Andrew!
You're totally right, this isn't auto-linked, and it really should be, as it is on the forum. I've filed this, and hopefully we can fix this some time soon. Thanks for reporting it!
Cheers,
