uclaudius - what does that have to do with anything?
--
Looks like lots of people have disappeared into thin air, gone from hundreds or thousands of listings to one main page listing or none at all. Many, many people are going "Home page only",

Caches disappearing or backdating over a year. And yes, old strong legit sites dropping in the SERPS from top 5 into the hundreds and beyond.

I'm convinced there is a serious meltdown and what we're seeing is info that can be scraped together to provide, for lack of a better term, a false store front while the store is being re-built, hopefully bigger, better and stronger in the end result, if not, then that will spell disaster for Google.

Google has already admitted to a storage meltdown and some great sites are being affected in the meantime. Just because some sites are moving and yours are holding position doesn't make this a non-event.

I also have pre-sandbox (if there even IS such a thing) sites (yes, content rich sites) that have gone from thousands of listings down to one main page with a backdated cache. many people are in the same position.

If you are holding position, good for you, but don't be surprised in the next hours or days if this changes dramatically.
