This time from what I can see, rather than an old onsite link, there are a bunch of offsite links pointing to pages/subdirectories in the old /reviews/ directory.

That is of course beyond your control and redirecting like you are doing means you aren't losing any traffic. The only alternative would be making those pages 404 until most of them drop out of the index in weeks or months and you would lose the traffic and I guess the backlinks too while waiting for that to happen.

So I could be wrong but I don't see it as a problem and like I said ain't nuttin you can do about it anyway even if it was.

Looks like you may need to fine tune the /reviews/ to /review/ redirect rules though to prevent cases like these:

http://www.adultsitesurfer.com/reviews/

http://www.adultsitesurfer.com/revie...tml/index.html

but I suck at redirects so can't help you there.
