What is being said is that you have some conventions you didn't follow. As a result, you are writing overly-complicated code to handle what should be automatic within the framework.
Do this: 1) move / rename your users_links table and data to a links_users table inside mysql. 2) remove completely the model for your join table - the UsersLink model. 3) define a normal habtm relationship between the User model and the Link model. 4) read the manual before you start another project - all of this is clearly explained in many translations.
