The new Forums use Trust Levels.
TRUST LEVEL INFO HERE
Trust Levels
Trust levels are a participation system on the forums. The more you post, like, reply, read, and visit the forums, the more you work your way to a higher trust level. Increased Trust levels grant additional privileges. Everyone who is new starts off at Trust Level 0 but will quickly climb by reading and visiting the forums within their first few days.

Post animated gifs, images, compatible video embeds, and links to any website
If you lack the ability to directly post links or images (requires Trust Level 3), then highlight your URL and click the </> icon above where you are typing.
That will allow the whole URL to be posted (albeit without the ability to click it directly ). It will look similar to this:
www.worldofwarcraft.com
Then anyone wanting to visit the link can merely copy/paste your link.
