I had the same issue and this is what i got from WF members
The power of the links a page provides gets divided among all the links on the page. With that many, those links are pretty much worthless.
Opinions vary, but I generally avoid pages with a ton of outbound links. (Though these can sometimes be gold if you take a look at the backlinks of the other people who have commented.)
I don't care as much if I'm doing a "blast" to my lower tier backlinks. But anything that I manually point to my site won't be on a post with a bunch of other comments.
Well, you probably haven't seen all of their quality backlinks. Most backlinks tools, dont show every single link a site has. They just shows a small selection.
Now, if you ask me, the fewer outgoing link a page has, the more benefit you get from a backlink from that page.
That said, its always good to have a mix of high quality and lower quality backlinks. Its more natural.
Hope this helps
