    DP probably lost PR because it has thousands of nofollow links all over the site (the main forums page has all those nofollows to the profile pages for instance). Google appears to be in a phase of majorly punishing anyone that uses nofollow at the moment.

    IT will rebuild its position slowly or bounce back quickly

    You are forgetting, DP allows webmasters to Buy/Sell links :)

    May be that was the reason of PR drop?

    I don't think so. DP's PR has been going up and down for years for all it's pages.

    Well DP has been falling behind lately. DB errors, slow loading pages. It's probably the reason why it fell in PR.

    so, now it looks like that no follow has actually drained dp's authority, it did not gave the value to the outgoing links but it just died. may be then dp should just remove the nofollow tags from the profile pages so that it actually reaches the profile links. better than being wasted...

    It is a matter of time before dp will bounce back and regain its lost PR. But who cares about the PR. dp is such a big and favorite forum where the knowledge matters more than the PR :)

    to be fair DP doesn't need the PR, it's popular enought on it's own. It's so big that PR doesn't really make a difference.
