Plox can has either underline or brighter blue? (or both) Or even Bolded! (I always bold mine because it stands out a little more as a link, but navy blue is so hard to see against the black. We have old people here, remember. >.<;

I posted about this at one point quite some time ago. Though I have grown a bit used to it, it's still not an easy job.
And no, I'm not old. I just have crappy eyesight XD
I'd go with underlined instead of Bold/Re-colour though.

What browsers are you guys using, you can usually overwrite link colour setting in most of them with either check boxes choices (ie & opera), extensions (chrome) or setting user style sheet (firefox).
About a hundredth of all users (read: the silent majority that play/view games without shitposting with us on the forum) will be using a CSS overwrite extension.
It should really just be done right by default.

I don't understand what this topic is about... Am I dumb? Or is it something I am blind to but others aren't?
url links in text.
They're navy blue in colour (by default) and hard to see when combined with the default text unless you hover over them by chance. This thread is asking for a change so that they're easier to be seen.

Oh I've never had any problems. There's so much linkage (especially in the community pages or forum pages) that I like that fact that they don't stand out too much. But I feel they stand out enough so that in text it's fairly easy to find the links without them being detrimental to a reading experience.
Of course I don't know how colour-blind friendly it is and stuff like that so...

Hence the idea that a lighter blue might work. Not a bright blue, but a lighter one than the one that is currently used. I've 20/20 but even I find it hard to spot them. They're only just lighter than the black.
(It's also why I bold links for others in my own posts - because they're hard to see.)

Maybe people should stop hiding links in text in the middle of a sentence ;) Put the whole url next time, http and all.
A lighter blue would work great, I think :D The color we use now is just a little too close to black.
I actually agree with this. It can be pretty tricky to see, and it should be a good compromise to have them easily distinguishable without it being intrusive.
Most links I see stand out by how they are presented. More often than not the user sets up a link by saying something about it or the like.
I've never had a problem with seeing a link within a text because they usually aren't hidden and aren't just found "accidentally"
