I'm really rather curious how you and Bill *think* Google would react to a recip-free link list. For example, if I were to accept only clean submissions at the list in my sig, would the lack of recips eventually screw me, or would Google see it otherwise and perhaps show a little love for dropping the whole reciprocal scheme? It sounds like the recips could be hurting me more than anything. By looking at my stats, they certainly the hell aren't helping me.
We'll assume that those who already link to me wouldn't drop their links, and that others would, over time, link to me from hubs, blogs, or where ever (because they love me). I have no intention of doing the standard traffic trade link exchanges with other lists, though I do sometimes link to a submitter's own list or page from within one of my new, beefy descriptions. (though I don't think any of them have ever noticed)
What are your thoughts? I am more than willing tinker with this list to see how Google would react.
