Forum rules state this isn't allowed, are these posts being deleted and being warned (or their main being warned if they have used it to alt post)? If not does this need to start happening or does the rule need to change?
You can't post in CAOD if you're in an NPC corp, the forums won't let you. Either the posters were in a player corp at the time of posting and dropped since or the thread was moved from GD (something that is pretty annoying - NPC alt threads being moved to CAOD defeat the purpose of that rule)

When sharing killmails, users have a choice between posting a long, hard-to-read killmail, or posting a short link to an easy-to-read website. I don't see any extra harm in linking to eve-kill instead of, say, evenews24. Posts that are a hyperlink only are contentless posts anyway.
Also, this. There is a huge difference between a post like "look, here are killboard links of titans blapping frigates, please keep saying that titans can't track frigates" in a thread about titan tracking and "Ahaha look at your horribly fit Hurricane lossmail here, look how terrible you are" in a thread where such a remark is totally unprompted. The first example can't possibly be trolling because it's on-topic, it isn't particularly meant to berate anybody, it adds to the discussion at hand and it's not like the dudes who lost the ships in those killmails are going to feel ~offended~ because somebody linked their lossmail.
To say that this has been an existing policy based on the "no trolling" rule is simply insulting our intelligence - up until recently, this rule was never enforced outside of IGS and C&P, and how can killboard links, in and of themselves, possibly constitute trolling?
