I'm not sure what the "id=" parameter is doing, functionally, but there are many ways to control it, and Robots.txt is probably not your best bet. You could META NOINDEX the duplicates, or you could rel=canonical to the "master" page. It's a complex subject, and I've got a comprehensive post about it here:

Those duplicates can definitely dilute your ranking ability, and even trigger a Panda problem (that could harm your entire site).
I don't believe there's really a sandbox in 2012, in the way we used to mean it. Many sites go out the gate ranking pretty quickly. Sometimes, after an initial grace period (30 days or so?), Google lowers a site's ranking, but that's usually because they re-evaluated the link profile. Large-scale duplication wouldn't cause that. The good news is that, once you clean it up, rankings should gradually improve.

Dear friend!
Thanks you for the support ^^!
My website backlinks are pointed from my another website by the banner at the left hand side bar ( follow link, of course this is also travel website), and i litle is from the forum and blog, the biggest links are from my website ( another site).
So, Should i remove from my another website or from the blog, forum...
Because my another website have index 2000+ so the links are too many.
And with the backlink, what is the most important factors? PA, DA, or link root domain...
Thank you ^^!

Ok so now we know it is due to the Penguin update.
The first step to do will be analyzing every single on of your backlink. Use Webmaster Tools and export all the backlinks that are pointing to your website. Next you will have to check out each single backlinks to see the quality of the link. I like to use the Mozbar addon to quickly check what the MozRank and MozTrust of the page is where the backlinks to your site is located.
Once you got the full list of links you want to have gone, you will first have to manually try and remove the links. This could be relatively easy if the link for example is from a directory where you had to make a profile first in order to create a listing. In that case, you can just delete the listing. Otherwise you will have to email the owner of the website if they could remove your backlink.
Now if, let's say 2-3 weeks have passed and you still haven't heard back of some the webmasters (even though you contacted them), you can go ahead and use the link disavow tool. This tool however has to be used with high care.
Have a read of http://searchengineland.com/google-launches-disavow-links-tool-136826 for an understanding of the tool.
If you don't fully understand the tool, please come back to the SEOMoz forums and ask for help, you need to fully understand how it works.
Good luck and feel free to ask any other questions!

By the sound of you might of gotten a penalty of Google.
I believe it might of been the penguin update.
I had a look at your backlink profile, and out of a total of 2.9k links you have 968 links with the anchor text of "vietnam visa of arrival". This is a clear signal to google that you are trying to manipulate to rank for that keyword.
Did the rankings decreased around the period of April the 24th?

Having duplicate titles will most certainly be effecting your SERP rankings, along with many many others factors of course.
Page titles should be unique on each page, and contain keywords that describe or that are relevant to the page.

Tricky Duplicate Content Issue
Hi MOZ community, I'm hoping you guys can help me with this. Recently our site switched our landing pages to include a 180 item and 60 item version of each category page. They are creating duplicate content problems with the two examples below showing up as the two duplicates of the original page. http://www.uncommongoods.com/fun/wine-dine/beer-gifts?view=all&n=180&p=1 http://www.uncommongoods.com/fun/wine-dine/beer-gifts?view=all&n=60&p=1 The original page is http://www.uncommongoods.com/fun/wine-dine/beer-gifts I was just going to do a rel=canonical for these two 180 item and 60 item pages to the original landing page but then I remembered that some of these landing pages have page 1, page 2, page 3 ect. I told our tech department to use rel=next and rel=prev for those pages. Is there anything else I need to be aware of when I apply the canonical tag for the two duplicate versions if they also have page 2 and page 3 with rel=next and rel=prev? Thanks

Why are my 301 redirects and duplicate pages (with canonicals) still showing up as duplicates in Webmaster Tools?
My guess is that in time Google will realize that my duplicate content is not actually duplicate content, but in the meantime I'd like to get your guys feedback. The reporting in Webmaster Tools looks something like this. Duplicates /url1.html /url2.html /url3.html /category/product/url.html /category2/product/url.html url3.html is the true canonical page in the list above._ url1.html,_ and url2.html are old URLs that 301 to url3.html. So, it seems my bases are covered there. _/category/product/url.html _and _/category2/product/url.html _ do not redirect. They are the same page as url3.html. Each of the category URLs has a canonical URL of url3.html in the header. So, it seems my bases are covered there as well. Can I expect Google to pick up on this? Why wouldn't it understand this already?

Are duplicate page titles fixed by the canonical tag
Google Web Master Tools is saying that some of my pages have duplicate page titles because of pagination. However, I have implemented the canonical tag on the paginated pages which I thought would keep my site from being penalized for duplicate page titles. Is this correct? Or does canonical tag only relate to duplicate content issues?

Totally confused by titles being too long!
We use a wordpress site and have tried some SEO plug-ins in the past. In the analysis, I am getting more than 2,000 pages have titles that are too long and from the results it looks like it was a result of one of these past SEO plug-ins. Do I need to go through and change all those titles? How bad is it that so many of the old blog posts are too long? Some are too long only in the archive link... So confused and hating the idea of reworking thousands of posts! Thanks y'all!

My number of duplicate page title and temporary redirect warnings increased after I enabled Canonical urls. Why? Is this normal?
After receiving my first SEO moz report, I had some duplicate page titles and temporary redirects. I was told enabling Canonical urls would take of this. I enabled the Canonical URLs, but the next report showed that both of those problems had increased three fold after enabled the canonical urls! What happened?

Duplicate titles Question
Hi eveyone, I have around 1000 duplicate titles and meta description. The poblem was that I had pages in my home page and different pages had the same title. For example, index.php/site/articles/should_you_eat_protein_every_2-3_hours_for_muscle_growth/
Technical SEO | | anoopbal/index.php/site/articles/should_you_eat_protein_every_2-3_hours_for_muscle_growth/N12/
/index.php/site/articles/should_you_eat_protein_every_2-3_hours_for_muscle_growth/N1444/
/index.php/site/articles/should_you_eat_protein_every_2-3_hours_for_muscle_growth/N1448/
/index.php/site/articles/should_you_eat_protein_every_2-3_hours_for_muscle_growth/N1448/P6/
/index.php/site/articles/should_you_eat_protein_every_2-3_hours_for_muscle_growth/N1452/I have 172 of the same page!So I took off all the pagination on my home page and just added 'click fo more'. When they click more, it takes them to the category.So my question is will google slowly start deleting or non-indexing these duplicate titles or pages as I have removed it from my website? (Just so that you know I added a canonical link and figuring out how to add page numbers to met titles and meta description tags for categories with pages)
