Isn't that the kind of link farming that Google hates?

You 'plant' a load of 'fake' links, and the site is built for nothing other than 'growing' links between sites to gain PR, rather than being an actual, proper website with actual, proper, useful content.

Google (and probably most search engines) work on the fact that people link to important related content because they think it's good. If you're basically hosting a list of keywords that people can buy as links and nothing else (which is what it sounds like) then you've not got the content and you're doing it purely for increasing people's page rank rather than because it's good content, hence Google sees 'link farms' as poisoning their ratings.

I'm not saying people don't get away with it, just that link farming is against the idea/rules of most search engines, and that it isn't at all ethical (IMO) to screw up the results by giving undeserving pages high PR just because they've got more money behind them. I'd rather a site built its links because it deserved them rather than hitting a crappy site with no useful info that had bought hundreds of farmed links.

Personally I'd blame the search engine. Why is it ranking a site so highly if all it has are a lot of incoming links?
Good search engines, like Google, will rank pages on more than incoming links and PR. If a site doesn't have good content it isn't going to get ranked highly in Google, that's a fact SEO experts know.

Anyway, my site focuses more on traffic and a creative idea than SEO.
