I do have a suggestion to solve this problem, but it would require some
more implementation effort, so I'm not sure if that is doable:

Allows every user to post links, but unless a user has enough karma
don't make them into links (i.e. not <a> tags). Instead of an error,
just give a warning/information to the user, why the links don't show
as such.

In addition allow forum moderators to approve a post for links (by a
single click), which would make the links show up with <a>.
Ideally "to be approved" posts show up in the top bar like flagged
items, so that can be done quickly.

Best,
Christian
