Spam not being caught

Both of those have been working since we upgraded to 3.4.1, so that's great.
Unfortunately, with "minimum reputation for posting links" enabled, it also means that new users cannot (easily) reply to posts, because replies automatically include @-mentions (which count as links) and a link to the post they replied to (which counts as a link). It would be nice if the link reputation-for-link requirement were only for external links.
Though as I'm replying to this post, I see neither an automatic @-mention nor a link to the previous reply, so that implies that there's a way to turn off that automatic text. However, I cannot find a setting that turns those off. In 3.4.1, how can I turn those automatic "links" off? If I do that, it would allow newer users to reply more easily.
Thank you.

@PeterJones those links are added when you use
@mentionlike @PeterJones or when you quote someone with the quote button on their posts. We should definitely fix it so they don't count against links. I think internal links to the forum shouldn't count against that setting. -
