"I have been watching a Google Webmaster Help thread for about a week now.  The thread was started by a 3rd party individual who volunteers a lot of his time helping webmasters in the Google Webmaster Help forum.  He was even promoted (no pay of course) to the position of \"Webmaster Help Bionic Poster\" as a top contributor.Autocrat, the name this person goes by, questioned Google's search quality team, to give them more insight in how to help Google.  He said:It would be nice to know;\n* What sort of \"activities\" we should be reporting\n* What hte chances are of seeing any form of action on a report\n* What sort of \"crimes\" could we expect to see action on\n* Whether you have to make multiple reports - or have multiple reports made against you before action is taken\n* how is it that some of the most blatant stuff gets to stay on line and escape the \"algorythm\"I hate to ask - but I'm tired of seeing some of the * in the SERPs - and I now fail t osee why I should bother reporting some of hte cheating * * when I know that I have a less than 1 in 20 chance of seeing them get punished!\nSo please - would the Spam Team please step forward and have a chat with us?We all waited, and waited for a response from an official Google representative.  But a week later we have yet to see a response.It is tough when your top volunteers ask tough questions, but it is even tougher when your top volunteers have to ask some of these questions.Forum discussion at Google Webmaster Help."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
