Subject: I feel like underlining is pretty standard?

(Random aside: every time, I try to start my subject line with 'Hui', because that's what goes in the first box. EVERY TIME. I'll get used to it. ^_^)

Links in HTML are default underlined, aren't they? I might be wrong, but that's my memory. It's not common that you'd have a block of underlined text with a link in the middle; I'm sure it could happen, but I can't think of a reason to do it.

Obviously the Board uses underlines... other places might use significantly different text colour, but I feel like that works best on a dark background, because... I think our eyes are better at picking out differences when they're set against black rather than white? I don't know. Wikipedia uses blue (which I think is also the default for YourWebApps), which works, but honestly I think Board-standard red-with-underlines has serves us well for a long time.

If a different solution is adopted, that's fine. But right now, reading something like this post is requiring me to run the cursor over every line to track down the links.
