I've skimmed around and can't find it. What are the rules on posting links to other websites in the contents of posts and in your userbars/signature lines?

It's in the Rules. http://www.classicbattletech.com/index.php?action=text&page=Forum_Rules

Pretty much as long as you follow Rule #10

Do not post links to active E-Bay auctions or similar content. It is acceptable to link to completed auctions.
Do not post links to online businesses without first gaining permission from a site Admin. It is acceptable to post links to online or FLGS or other resources to assist fellow posters in locating items, as long as the other rules are followed.
If you are unsure whether your link is acceptable or not, please contact a site Admin.
