[Safety Feature] You're Now Leaving Wolvden Warning

Hello!

My suggestion is as follows: There should be a warning that pops up when you are leaving Wolvden.com. Almost every other browser game has this feature to help protect its players from clicking suspicious links, getting scammed, etc. ToyHouse does it too, so here's an example from them:



I see this as a very important safety feature and I'm honestly shocked it's not already in place.

Thanks for listening!

Yes, please! I'm always taken by surprise when a link on someone's profile page or forum post takes me to a different website.
At the very least, we need a small "external link" symbol for those links.

An example from a random website:

I think we do have an external link symbol in the chat box when external links are posted, but not anywhere else on the website. I don't personally think that's sufficient as far as safety and protecting the site's players.

Oh, I wasn't aware of that. And that's fair - I definitely support an external link warning pop-up!

As someone who specializes in cyber security, I thinks this idea is imperative to the safety of the player. I believe having the extra barrier providing a warning that you are clicking an external link is important in maintaining a player's safety. Sometimes users may even click a link on accident without realizing it's external, the extra page providing a warning will give them a chance to back out before entering a potential risky link.
I fully support implementing a warning that you are exiting the site.
