Done.

Where exactly do you want to see link indicators? Normally link indicators like underlines are not used unless it is an area where it is not obvious that a link is in the text, for example in a paragraph in a post. Common best practice today is to use color versus underlines (see CNN, Google News, Google search results, Yahoo News screenshot attachments, these are all links, but none of the links have link indicators ... just 4 of many examples of best practices today to use underlines and other link indicators very rarely and specifically.).
I assume you mean "links in paragraphs inside posts"? Please provide a link to an example area on the site where you want to see link indicators; because I have gone over the site, and I think all the links are very obvious without having underlines all over the site (unless hovered), but perhaps I missed an area?
Actually, I plan to remove the underlines from almost all links which are in lists, fieldsets, etc since best practices today are not to use underlines (CSS: text-decoration: none) for links. I don't know any modern day website which uses underlines for links, but a few do change colors (or use other link indicators) of a link when the link is embedded in a paragraph of text.
If you have a specific area on the site you are interested in having link indicators please post and I'll take a look!
Thanks.
