The problem isn't with the links, it's with the bot itself; see here for a recent discusion Many subreddits have banned that bot (and others) for those reasons.

Leaving the beginning slash off is an easy way to talk about a specific subreddit without linking to it and I personally hope that remains in place.

Yea. Fuck bots. Gives me flashback nightmares to my yahoo and AOL chat days when I was a teenager.
