		<description>Could it be that google really isn&#039;t God? Seriously maybe removing no follow causes them some grief! then again it could be the result of trying to take over too much control of  the net!!!                                        James</description>

		<description>@ MMM (Make Money Online)

Gosh that would have been a great anchor text! ;)
Just jocking. I stopped using Akismet about one year ago- it was catching wrong people. It caught many legitimate comments so I have switched to Spam Karma Plugin.

@Sapphire
I have not requested the reinclusion, but I the website I mentioned never sold any links, got slashed to a zero just to recover to the previous rank two weeks later. I do however own a website- the worst offender of all that was not touched by Google but it was only PR2 to begin with.</description>

		<description>Oh I love the merchandise. I think it could be a hit.

I haven&#039;t noticed much increase in spam with do follow links.   I get a few from the site where I listed myself as do follow but most are people out there actually commenting and they seem to actually at least look at the picture.

I&#039;ve been looking around and haven&#039;t noticed a lot of talk about this.   As far as I can tell I am not breaking any of MSN&#039;s rules, but they hate a few of my sites--won&#039;t index them even after I request--and they used to index them. The only thing that I can think of is that the ones they hate are all addon domains.  Have you found this anywhere?</description>

		<description>Hmm. I have had do-follow on this site for months and seen no increase in spam. I think there have to be other factors.

I&#039;m not seeing any of my zeroes bounce back yet - except the one where I asked for reinclusion. Of course, the ones I got zeroed on do still have paid links up, so I&#039;m not shocked. ;)</description>

		<description>I think the increase of spam was probably associated with the fact that I have removed &quot;nofollow&quot; from my comments. It is hard to say though.

Some of my blogs though after being ranked zero are back to their previous rank. I am speculating here, but maybe Google is moving to some sort of different rank system, or maybe they will be updating the PR dynamically instead of doing so once a quarter. We know they have been doing that for long time and what was shown in the toolbar  was a little outdated. But who knows?</description>
