I got tired of seeing those, though yesterday I had tried and was denied for http://blogs.msdn.com/b/twistylittlepassagesallalike/archive/2011/04/23/everyone-quotes-arguments-the-wrong-way.aspx

so its either view the list and check against my post while composing /during preview , or trial and error for X amount of urls I use, or stop trying to link to stuff

I've seen other sites use a re-director, I believe all 3 forms defeat the purpose of spam links but not spam posts

 .../external/http://example.com
 .../external?=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com

When you visit this external page ( which robots aren't allowed to follow ), you get message of the form

You are leaving perlmonks.com, we don't know where this link goes, if its safe for work, known for malware, visit at your own risk
Check for safety with

check for ASACP....url=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com

so if a posting doesn't look particularly spammy, but it links to a non-whitelist-approved website, re-director-ize it?
