My pages in http://www.frostquest.com experienced the drop in page rank last march 7, 2013
(or technically at end of the pile, even the spam sites has higher rank than I have when I search “www.frostquest.com”)
For example http://www.frostquest.com/contact.php can still shown at top, but game review pages like http://www.frostquest.com/free-download/… will displayed at bottom of search.
Frostquest is my game review web site where users can share the youtube videos and game reviews through the site, (include link to the sites that provides the download link)
I don’t really know what it caused it, I just listed the possible factors here, so please help me find the cause and get my site rank back.
1) I have added the text affiliate links in iframe.
2) Google fetched iframes, reserved only for ads, even it is only loaded when Java Script is active.
3) I have added the random game suggestion links at free banner space.
4) Comment feature has been spammed. (but I remove it regularly)
5) Comment feature use Java Script for dynamic images, which caused my site to drop traffic before (and I don’t know why)
6) I have opened exchange link for ads service, but I got no response and removed it from site yesterday.
7) Google returns me wrongly fetched meta tags at webmaster tools, e.g. Google reported me the meta duplication warning, so I have updated the pages, but Google still reports it. (But search shows correct meta)
I really need quick response, thanks everyone in advance!

From time to time, Google does this to sites that they’ve crawled and deemed as spamming, or link spamming, since you seem to have added a lot of links, including in ad spaces. Perhaps you should clean out your sites first and give it time. Otherwise, you’d have to redo your site’s optimizations. Good luck!
some of your iFrames and javascript stuff might resemble some cloaking techniques used to deceive search spiders, they react strongly when such trickery is detected. I didn’t look at your site…
The Canonical tag may be one way for dealing with on site duplicate content, by pointing out the master copy that should get the indexing.

If one experiences a sudden drop in search ranking,. it’s a good practice to look for a drop in search referral traffic in your server logs that coincides with the date of one of the Google algorithm changes you can find in this calendar of algorithm changes.http://www.seomoz.org/google-algorithm-c…
Google recently updated their algorithm like panda and emd. I think your site hit by those update. Don’t worry you can get back your rank again by simple step.
may be it has been penalized ?
