>>Reading and understanding are two different things, you could come away from some of these threads and the SEO bit at google with some some very ill-conceived notions about ranking and SEO.

Lack of understanding isn't the issue. Lack of confidence that Google does anything to filter out blatant TOS violation is the issue. I'm not talking about anyone's definition of "spam" but Google's. Report this, report that is all yada, yada save for a few people that have actually seen a "spam" report work. Let's not go off on some false tangent about my client's understanding, he understands quite well. After a year, the results of the effect of violating that TOS is quite clear, nice positioning.

>>This, Grasshopper, is the Zen of White Hatism.

No one will ever accuse me rightfully of residing in a White Hat camp. The dark side beckons...
