Buying links to improve PageRank violates our quality guidelines.

Isnt that PPC? Sounds like they are moaning that everyone isn't paying
them and maybe paying someone else?

Laughable but that's business at times.

Does anyone have problems translating this?

--------
Help us maintain the quality of Google search results.
We work hard to return the most relevant results for every search we
conduct. To that end, we encourage site managers to make their content
straightforward and easily understood by users and search engines alike.
Unfortunately, not all websites have users' best interests at heart.
Some
site owners attempt to "buy PageRank(tm)" in the form of paid links to
their
sites. Buying links to improve PageRank violates our quality guidelines.

Google uses a number of methods to detect paid links, including
algorithmic techniques. We also welcome information from our users. If
you
know of a site that buys or sells links, please tell us by filling out
the
fields below. We'll investigate your submissions, and we'll use your
data
to improve our algorithmic detection of paid links.

-----------------------------------

Translated this is asking you to ask for a site to be ranked lower,
becuase google wants their revenue! Google is NOT an ethical business.

We'll 'improve' our algorithmic detection! I wouldn't mind hearing how
they do that!
