I took the liberty of renaming some variables (and you must be ruing the decision by whomever to name a custom object with so many words :-))

Your save action method:

public PageReference save() {
 Intralinks_Group_and_Contact_Links__c[] igclInsList = new List<Intralinks_Group_and_Contact_Links__c>();
 for (Intralinks_Group_and_Contact_Links__c igcl : copyFrom.Contact__c != null
                ? [select id,   
                      from Intralinks_Group_and_Contact_Links__c
                      where Contact__c =:copyFrom.Contact__c]
                : new List<Intralinks_Group_and_Contact_Links__c>() {
    Intralinks_Group_and_Contact_Links__c igclCopy = igcl.clone(false,true); // w/o ID
    igclCopy.contact__c = mainGroupLinker.Contact__c;  // new parent
    igclInsList.add(igclCopy);  // build insert List
 }
 insert igclInsList;  // if empty, no problem.  Could be wrapped in try-catch
 return null;
}
