It is often against the rules to link to the Pit from a topic in other categories.

It is? I didn’t know that.

I had a certain type of link in mind where the link was made to a pit thread against the poster. For example, from the thread titled New Rules for Great Debates and Elections - January 2020:

@Jonathan_Chance

Linking to Insults. Do not link to insulting posts or memes either in the BBQ Pit or off the SDMB as a means of getting around the ‘no insults rule’.

Under the current system, you could for example make a Pit thread titled “Max_S is a fucking idiot”. Then you could quote every one of my posts. Discourse will automatically append a link that reads “Max_S is a fucking idiot” to every post of mine (or anybody else’s) which is quoted in that Pit thread.

I noticed this because UltraVires is the subject of an active Pit thread, and whenever someone in that thread quotes UltraVires somewhere else, the quoted post (eg: in IMHO or GD) gains a link that reads “We have a winner for West Virginia’s dumbest lawyer”.
