Linking To Mirrors & Penalties?

Well I for one hope the search engines don't penalize for linking to mirrors since I both build them and list them on my link lists. Of course, I know NOTHING about search engines so I may be hurting my link lists instead of helping them.

If they aren't, I would have to believe it's only a matter of time. These mirrors or doorways are creating a lot of dupe pages and I seriously doubt the se's will look at those duplicate or near dupe pages as quality content.

This is all assumptions and theories, but if we link to doorways or mirrors that the se's have tagged as not valuable we could be hurting our LL's in the listings. Hoping others will chip in on this??

It is my personal opinion that doorways and mirrors are not really helpful as a freesite builder or LL owner linking to them. Do you guys/gals think that model will ever change, maybe it's time?
