Rule #1: If this way my site, I wouldn't be coming up here defending it, putting even more oil to the fire.
Rule #2: Protect your kids against the threats of the internet. Don't blame the fucker playing a game with Google while you are covering your eyes. If you setup a blog for your six-year old and you think there will be roses and bees the kid will run into in this fucked up online world then by god, all the best to you. One such spammer down, 1000s more to replace him. So now what? I am defending the guy? See, I give a shit. I see things as they are. You doing your keyboard dance on GFY won't help your kid in any way. Do your job and protect your kid. No one else will.
Fact #1: The point of the thread is Google not being perfect in 2010 with people getting away with spammy links. Boohoo. The point here is the SERP "quality" and some guy thinking that we should report it for the sake of all whitehat folks who sweat blood to get the puritan methods working. Whitehats are just angry they do not have the guts to do blackhat, while others do and then those others even manage to pass them by breaking "the rules" some website put up.
Fact #2: Every good SEO does blackhat. It's only the classiness and extent that differ. What is borderline whitehat today, will be blackhat tomorrow. Just because it's not up on the Google's "rules of conduct" it doesn't mean you won't get kick in the but for it next year.
Next someone will come here saying Google is evil for letting this pass because some webmaster that they list is spamming links on blogs that some kid my own.
So it's everyone else's fault that your kid my run into porn. I salute you.
Blackhat always irritated me when done by stupid webmasters who can't match the fucking niche. But here I as a novice user of Google I wouldn't notice a thing. Got what I looked for. Not quality, but hey with terms like the above, you are not looking for quality - you just got your fucking internet connection today.
