It's bad form to make your first post on a forum a bunch of links with no explanation.

I'll show you how god falls asleep on the job.
And how can we win when fools can be kings?
Don't waste your time or time will waste you."

I'll bet that this isn't just the first post, but the last. Drive-by Buddhist proselytizing.

Do I even need to click on the links or just ban this person as a spammer without looking?

Isn't standard practice to make the links inactive and explain to the poster (who will most likely never come back) that there is a rule against posting links as a first post?  Yeah, it seems obvious that this person was a drive by who just wanted to promote something, but isn't it better to err on the side of caution just in case they want to participate?

I know, you're right. Gotta err on the side of caution. Dagnabit!  :)
