Bloody Google! PR3 on my 2257-page

Linkster, I have heard the same thing. People seem to be concerned that it will be too easy to tell that a site is SEO'd by using that attribute, thus google will penalise the sites using it. I have not seen any real reasons other than this and the usual google paranoia.

I dont image that it would get penalised as google are the ones that initiated its use. Plus it is a great tool to stop forum and blog spam and thus is in the SE's best interest use it. Thus I can't see them having a problem with it.

I would have posted this before - but why would having that link dilute any PR transferred as long as you have a link (like a copyright notice) pointing back at the home page - I still think that you are just seeing the subdirectory auto - PR feature but I have been wrong before.

As far as the nofollow tag - the people Ive talked to that have believe that adding that tag to their sites actually caused them harm, have also agreed with me that it is too early to tell with the constant update that Google has been running for the last month - or what I really think is a constant attempt at fixing their database they crashed a while back.

I was saying to be cautious only because I don't think we have seen the true effects of that (whether Google will use it as a filter or not) yet
