Comment (by dankop):

 Just leaving a comment to support these changes. Internal links shouldn't
 be nofollow, even if left by a user.

 Think of it as me as the author replying to a user in the comments, and
 pointing them towards a different page on the website. This is an internal
 link, posted by the author - shouldn't be "nofollow ugs"

 Second scenario - a user replies to another user with a link that leads to
 a different page on the website. Even though this is user generated
 content, it's still an internal link and shouldn't be nofollow.
