GoArticles and nofollow links?

I have submitted my first article with GoArticles.com a couple days ago. When I checked the released article, I noticed that all links in the article body have the "rel=nofollow" attribute, while the link in my author box is dofollow. Is this standard behavior or did I mess something up when submitting the article?

tia,

    GoArticles is in the process of changing a lot of things in their structure.

    To know if it is the new standard, look at other articles on their site also.

        Well, my Google Webmaster Tools is showing a lot of backlinks coming from GoArcticles.com.

        I don't really care if they are nofollow or dofollow b/c I'm getting credit for my backlinks either way. Obviously.

        CHEERS!

        And for CLARIFICATION: In Content hyperlinks are nofollow. Signature hyperlinks are dofollow.

    Its natural. But nofollow backlinks are still important. However dofollow ones are better, but nofollow backlinks can still help your ranking. I don't think any article directory allows you to have as many as you want dofollow backlinks in the body and resource box of article.
