Default Are Reciprocal Links as Good as One-Way Links?

I'm finding that there are some sites one-way linking to my site, but not many. I have a few reciprocal links (only with related sites) and I'm not sure if one is better than the other. I've participated on forums in related sites and have profiles and whatnot all over the place with my domain (trying to stick with high PR sites). What do you guys think?

Reciprocal links are virtually worthless. One-way is the only way.

One way is certainly better. I wouldn't call reciprocal links worthless but they are most definitely of less value value than a one way link.

Think of backlinks as 'votes' for your site or page. If you receive 1 vote from a site and give 1 vote to the same site, they basically cancel each other out, unless the other site has much more authority and higher PR than yours.
