I just received this message in the Chatterbox:

You said "Reaped node at: [id://630189] because [[chacham]]: offtopic" to root

So it correctly notified root, but maybe that’s just because in this case the OP was Anonymous Monk, who can’t be messaged. Anyway, that’s how it displayed in the Chatterbox, but in my Message Inbox, the links work correctly:

told root Reaped node at: Reaped: Re: When I count, I think of numbers as... because chacham: offtopic

“Curiouser and curiouser!” cried Alice.
