Forum hyperlinks containing ":" are auto-converted to html-code

I noticed that when I tried to link to an webarchive page in a forum post, the forum post editor apparently replace the second ":" with ":", and thus breaking the link. 


This link should point to http://web.archive.org/web/20130807142126/http://www.samuriah.com/images/CementTileable03_Thumb.jpg (which weirdly works, if you copypaste it from elsewhere, maybe becasuse it's automaticly detected as an url)


1. I tested this both on  Chrome 69.0.3497.92 (Official Build)(64-bit)(my main browser) and  Firefox 56.0 (32-bit).

2. I tested it on Chrome with all extensions disabled

3. I tested it on Chrome after clearing my cache

Guess:Maybe the linking tool is assuming the second ":" is not part of an correct url, and converts it to html-code equivalent. 

Other: Didn't find anything obviously  similar on a quick web search
