My site was not a directory. It *was* the recipient of a site wide link on another banned site. Perhaps the filter penalized both the "sellers" of links and the "buyers" of same.

Now that would be interesting if they really would penalize a site for ROS links instead of neutralizing the ROS links. I have seen evidence (although not conclusive enough to state it as fact) in the past where ROS links did not help sites at all. I never believed in those anyways ;)
