Question shortcut name changes

I've noticed alot of people can copy a shortcut to a website like so-- http://www.pinkfloydfan.net, but they can change it to say something else e.g. I was on the "websites I've found intresting" thread someone said --something-- then you might find this intresting, with the url shortcut inside "this". Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Re: shortcut name changes

Yes. You have to use a BB tag like this:

I found (url="http://www.website.com/")this(/url) to be interesting.

...except replace all the brackets with [square ones].

Re: shortcut name changes

This is some anti-Bot-plot. I'm convinced of it.

Just because he's a nice guy with floppy hair.
