Re-inclusion Request at Google

Just wondering if anyone has submitted a re-inclusion request for an adult site to google?

If so, did it work?

If it worked, how long did it take? Did you hear back from google, or just saw an increase in traffic?

According to Matt Cutts, "If there’s an algorithmic reason why your site isn’t doing well, you can definitely still come back if you change the underlying cause. If a site has been manually reviewed and has been penalized, those penalties do time out eventually, but the time-out period can be very long. It doesn’t hurt your site to do a re-inclusion request if you’re not sure what’s wrong or if you’ve checked carefully and can’t find anything wrong."

That last sentence above could lead one to believe that google would initiate some sort of communication with you if you've checked your site and can't find anything wrong.

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with re-inclusion requests with adult sites at google.

An FYI, we submitted one of our sites for re-inclusion about two weeks ago and haven't heard or seen anything yet. The site that we submitted has always gotten a small amount of traffic from google, less than 1000 uniques per day, but no where near what it should be getting.
