How many posts must be done before you can use URL's

Is it the first post only? I would like to post something but I need to reference a steam snapshot and got the message that you can't post URL's on your first post. I hope this takes care of that.

I think it's first post only. You might even be able to go back and edit it after posting.

I wish I had known that ahead of time. I did this long detailed post, hit post and lost everything due to that rule. Time to try again.

This is why I type *long* posts in notepad and C&P it into forums. I lost myself some long post due to such issues or connection loss etc :).

You can post without links and immediatly edit the post to contain the links. That's how I put a link in my first post. I didn't lose my text when it failed to submit because it had links in it at first.
