Is there anyway to restrict links in OT topics or even restrict OT topics?

Take the example of the suspect link to a mortgage broker. I realize the topic of refinancing is relevant to many including me but given this is a bike forum is this where we should be asking advice?

I’m guilty of asking advice on off topic stuff (suggestions for a sports car for example) so I’m not sure what the answer is.

Do we always need links? Helpful in posting PSA’s so I don’t know. I’m so ignorant of how scams work. Is it possible to post a fake link to what appears to be a Craigslist ad but is a link to some malware? I really have no idea.

Is there a way to restrict posting links until x number of posts? Similar to posting ads?

There’s a good chance of tossing the baby with the bath water on this one.
