Thread: DMOZ is not worth our troubles

I have decided based on the rediculous behaviour that the editors are not worth our troubles. Resource Zone is their play ground and the reason they like to argue is because they have no lives.

Why would anyone volunteer? Unless ... let's not go there.

But there are some good ones, and many of them are leaving, like this guy
http://www.dmoz.org/profiles/whizky.html

The weird thing is we are top page 3 for " DMOZ " now in msn.

I wanna be #1

I had a problem with DMOZ. The Hilton Head Area Luxury Homes site was classified in the Bluffton, SC section because the agent was in their satellite office off-island and not in the main office. I tried to persuade them that the two towns are basically one town or residential area, but they wouldn't budge.

So I waited a few months, removed the mailing address from the site, then asked for a classification change, and they moved the site.

One thing that I did notice is that DMOZ later picked up the change in agencies without any prompting.

Now if I can only get them to include the FSBO site...

this is probably the best info I have found so far on getting listed in DMOZ http://www.seochat.com/c/a/Search-En...ion/DMOZ-Tips/

Look at this ignorant comment from Macdesigns http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=10765

I am not bashing DMOZ, but idiots who edit for DMOZ.

I'll compare DMOZ to Denny's right now and you to the toothless waitress working in the small town Georgia Denny's who cannot figgure out how to process a traveller's check. You are not even on the level to communicate with intelligent people here. That is why all your sig links are DMOZ related because you have nothing else going for yourself like so many DMOZ editors. Go back to resource zone where morons are being accepted based on their position rather than skills. There are lots of DMOZ guys here 8 of which are my friends. They would not want to be caught dead associating themselves with someone like you. The reason the others won't is because the bad ones are cowards who only show up where one of their kind moderates or someone protects them. Just like your lowlife friend Hutchenson who bans ppl and talks bad to them after they are banned and can no longer respond.

Anyways, please step aside and stop spewing false information. There are newbies reading this and this place is too informative to become polluted by idiots who think they are important because someone backs them up.

To everyone else at DP, I apologize my words but it needs to be said, let's be of help to everyone and not lower ourselves onto their levels any longer.

Peace,


Mike


Mike,

I think you really need to stop holding back and let him know how you really feel about him and other editors like him.

haha ... when I apologize to fellow DP members, I mean it, even though I get good rep points for it.

I am on a mission .... I can't help it

If anyone here disagrees with me, please speak up! I don't want to force my opinions on anyone. However when I feel strongly about something, I HAVE TO say it, especially when I think I am right.

Just don't do as I do with the name calling, thas the first time i did that on digitalpoint

To explain: the guy gave false advice, and since he is an editor, people will use the false info as a given.

Dmoz like anything has good and bad in it..
I had a problem with a bad editor in there and the category wasnt fixed for 2 years.. but someone picked up a post on it and got the sitution resolved in about 48 hours..
It is a useful directory to be listed on for Page rank and links - Due to the fact so many people use it into their sites..(inc. Google)

Personally, I just think ST got rejected when he applied and is now bitter hahaha
