You must be either very new to these forums or never read the 1000´s of generous contributions of fellow members sharing and helping each other with a "do good unto others" attitude.

You really owe an apology to those decent gracious generous fellow members.

You know I just don't get it. People poke into a thread just to attack someone else – what does that add?

I can look at both yours and McMohan's join date, post count, and recent posts in your profiles and judge for myself who has offered helpful advice/opinions on matters. Why take a jab at someone that has been nothing but congenial?

Sure, I may have taken a couple jabs at people that were completely misrepresenting themselves, their sites, and the people that read this thread, but I don't poke into threads to simply attack someone and offer nothing else to the topic of the thread… Simply amazes me people get pis#ed off just because someone is being congenial.

There were two events that hit directories in July. The first on the 22nd. This was either a rollback or the first attempt at pushing sites with duplicate content down the serps.

Those that have been hit would have to confirm this.

Was it only sites that came out of the sandbox with bourbon that were affected?

Not in my opinion as the sites I have seen have been around up to several years.
