you appear to be following a pre rails 4.0 tutorial with rails 4. You need to use strong params now.

http://guides.rubyonrails.org/action_controller_overview.html#strong-parameters

there is also a railscast on it that should help. 

@comment = @post.comments.create!(params.require(:comment).permit!) 


@comment = @post.comments.create!(params.require(:comment).permit(:comment_text,:link))

The first will permit all params to be allowed, the latter will only allow comment_text and link to be accepted.

If the system is throwing ActiveModel::ForbiddenAttributesError, that means you must be using strong_parameters gem or your rails should have version greater than 4, in which case strong_parameters gem is already included in that version. In that case, you add the following code on your application_controller.rb to get rid off from this error.

before_filter do
  resource = controller_name.singularize.to_sym
  method = "#{resource}_params"
  params[resource] &&= send(method) if respond_to?(method, true)
end
