One of my websites has also had Big Daddy issues since early May... here's the low-down:

- Traffic post May 2 is only 30% of previous
- Pages beginning to drop on May 1-2, to now between 25% to 40% of pages left in index depending on the DC
- Supplemental Results began to show around May 5th, previously no Supplementals showed
- has had a 301 www/non-www redirect for years, doesn't appear to be an issue with the site: command
- allintext: searches have our site missing, other searches fine
- searches for unique text from our homepage has many scraper sites coming before ours for many searches, some we also top the scrapers! (sarcastic-cheer!)

Anyone else have any similar problems? I'm thinking this website's problem is due to scrapers and how G's reworking their BD index. Part of me would like to stay hands off and let it work itself out (over the coming weeks? months?), however, I'm wondering if re-writing a lot of the site's content would perhaps lift the problem that we seem to have due to the scrapers... it's a small site so a rewrite isn't out of the question.
