LW uses Markdown for urls and such-- the details are under the Help link at the lower right of the comment window.
Uh, the comment you are replying to is definitely spam.
I clicked "Vote down" and it got bolded the way it does when you vote on something, and the comment's score went from 0 to -1, but when I reload the page, "Vote down" is no longer bolded and the score is back to 0. I tried in Chrome and Firefox (on Linux). I went and voted up another comment, and that works fine.
This is happening to me too. Looks like we have a bug...
People have reported it (someplace around here), someone has fixed it. Waiting on a pull request and a production deployment.
And not very well done spam at that. I'm sure I could write a better black hat marketing spam bot than that.
If this sort of thing started happening frequently it would be good if this sort of post could be deleted or at least have the link stripped. (The outgoing link being the important part of the spam.) For example, the code could simply not display outgoing links from users with < 100 karma.
Yeah, we don't want to be encouraging spam or other kinds of noise posts on this site. I voted it down.
