How do I make a comment link?

[Randoman01]

I want to know, on this site. Sometimes while browsing I will see users have links in the comments that they have instead of it looking like this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game


The word is the link like: Video Game. But it is blue and you can click on it. How can I make a link out of something like that? Thanks.

Here is the syntax of how to make a hyperlink to the page you provided but with custom text set to "Video game":

[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game]Video game[/url]

If you copy/paste the above in a post, you would get this result

Video game [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game]

Also, for future reference, you can quote somebody and you'll see what syntax they used for a particular command. Saying that, if you do want to have a look at that how that works, ignore the second line of my comment, as I had to horribly mutilate the code to get it to not parse by the forums markup - the fourth line is what you'd normally get.
