As soon as I did I saw some of my more important rankings returning. Not all of them, and it could be a coincidence, but who knows
I put them back...and a day later I was gone. So...I took them down again, and for now they are coming back a little.

I said before, your pages had no h1 tags and most of the tags were integrated in the CSS file. Nice to know that your site is getting good ranks again. Please put emphasis on bold tags also. I have a lot of websites getting good ranks and most interesting thing is, I never cared about CSS formatting. And the W3 Validation shows horrible reports.

I am not quite sure about this. But limiting your keywords and
SEO emphasis for large number of pages is a decent thing to do. If you have more than 700 pages, then I would request you to make the site more user friendly, than search engine friendly. Large number of pages slightly
SEO optimized and mostly User optimized can get you good rank.
