I'm not overly concerned with the strict filter. If moderate is default and the main page shows up in that (which it does), I am content.

And it is not a correct suggestion (in this situation)... Algorithm filters that change your score are not the same as the filters they use to protect youngsters.

Unless there is some reason to believe that Google will actually penalize your ranking due to adult oriented words (or combinations of them) it is not relevant. (And if Google did do this, it would be beyond ridiculous. That is saying that adult oriented words make a site's information less valuable)

And given that other sites have worse words and rank a bazillion times higher than me for the keywords I target, it is unlikely I snagged the one keyword combination filter that Google really, really doesn't like.

Although there is no clear answer to this, I am leaning towards some error in my linking system and as I stated above, changed that. Although, I find it somewhat of a stretch to think Google would penalize me for 2.5 years based on this... That would mean Google things those are spammy links and have been spammy for 2.5 years.

That's dedicated spam!
