Answered Are Poal links intended to be considered "external links"?

Tried to comment something awe-inspiring, enigmatic, provocative. You know, my usual comments.

Post was in /s/introductions

The offending link was

[He's totally on the niggerfaggot '24 train.](https://poal.co/s/MeanwhileOnPoal/622045/bca85725-6052-41b8-a762-b583c6043083#cmnts)

Received the error

"External links are not allowed in this sub"

Seems that a poal link shouldn't be considered "external". Especially when used in such a magnanimous way.

I forgot to update the error message to say “links” instead.

Some salty fakevoat trolls tried to spam /s/introductionswith old Poal posts linking to fakevoat. Seems like they are craving for attention and traffic. But Poal is dying alright!
