Q: Have you ever spammed or tweaked a relatives (or your own :)) site as a favour either manually or by giving them "the key" or ever been tempted?

A: Let me answer a more interesting question: have you ever taken action on a relative/friend’s site that had spam? And the answer to that is yes. :) Our hidden text detection recently found hidden text on the page of someone I knew from college. That page got the same treatment as any other page. When the white-on-white text was removed, the page came back just fine and everyone was happy. The take-home message is that the spam guidelines apply uniformly.
