Sid, if that is true as you say that the Panda algo keeps rewarding the good (in G eyes) sites then isnt that the point. They want to create a clear line between good and bad and separate them. When new sites enter, they get the same evaluation and prosper or fail just like anyone else.

It doesn't change anything imo. Websites have always been evaluated by the algo and continuity loved or hated depending on what the algo things of them, it's always been self fulfilling.

I think the main issue here now is that G isnt getting it right, there are too many false positives. If and when they do get it right, in theory, i think it's a good idea. Reward the good and push the bad to oblivion.

It's what G has always tried to do in fact, they just never seem to get it bang on. The bad always seems to creep in or worse, they start punishing the good by mistake.
