    Sure... but I think the *most common* is #2.

    #3 would really suck and if that were the case you could easily start fake threads and list the URL's of your competitors and sink their SERPS... unlikely.

    #1 doesn't even have to be directories I suspect if you get a high number of backlinks from just one type of sites then your site doesn't look natural.

    If you take a look at some of the top ranked sites in the Google SERPS they have backlinks from everywhere.

    -directories
    -blogs
    -related websites
    -articles
    -social networking links

    Hope that helps! :)
