Well, if you are referring to update in May, I never got hit by it cause most of my shady link sites got nuked last Oct when new penguin (spam link update) got out.
Thing is, mainstream SEO was always ways ahead of most stuff thats going on in adult - things like "duplicate content is a no no" and "omg, you have way too much keyword density on pages" or "omg, you have only pics and no text on your page!!" are, sort of, rule of a thumb.
For example, why did sites running smart thumbs mostly escaped while majority of other sites got nuked?
Easy - if you check each and every thumb on their page, they appear to be "google unique" compared to majority other scripts (not an advocate for DamageX, but still lol, know him for a long time).
So, unique content (including videos/pics) and good descriptions IMHO is a way to go - how you put it in a form at the user end does not really matter - google has no eyes, they can't see your design, gauge how really "good" your site is - metrics is all they can do + check how unique stuff on your pages are. Kinda... self explanatory, seriously and no SEO plugins needed in any place lol.
Mainstream mostly got hit because of spammy links, rarely cause of shitty content on pages. So, rebuild, relink, off we go again. We even got a new term - chun'n'burn sites - you get by from update to update - make site, nuke links, rank, bank, get burned next update - rebuild. Rinse and repeat. Hence mainstream IMHO now is populated by all "camofobia garcinia new cheap jerseys" more than adult... IMHO today its easier to get a new adult site up and running...
