    It will be just like those thousands of odd Unofficial web directories.

    For that way, i already have dpdir.info PR4 directory but useless.

    if it is still clean with no sites we can use it
    shawn have said twice that he doesn't aprove the idea
    but many loved this idea , so why not we can be the unofficial directory
    and in abscence of a real directory , we are the DP directory

    i have a saying that always gets me in trouble
    and lately caused me some bad rep....

    you should never be passive , be active , defend what you think is good (or any good idea you have)

    i'm 100% behind you on this , i know many are too
    stop being passive , act....

    From what I've seen, when Shawn says it isn't going to happen, it usually don't. I do like the idea, but honestly I don't think it would be worth Shawn's time.

    On the other hand ;), maybe Shawn will let me use the DP name on a directory??? Official license???

    That thread came to mind when I read this one.

    But then again, I came to DP (forums) via the old OG lists... (old school mailing lists). I remember a time when Shawn "personally hated forums."

    Things change. He could buy KingBloom and I could retire and move next door to Shawn :rolleyes:

    Because I think directories are pointless to be honest. :)

    That is probably why ;)

    Btw. I still say Digital Point should have a search engine. Something way better than G Y and M ... especially now that Google sucks more than ever.

    :( would of been good thought, if all members had sites in DP directory, it would be VERY easy for us to find link trades with other members etc

    Now i have to agree Rob :D :D

    There is a big B/S/T section which has link exchange section for link trades etc. where u can start a new thread or look for similar thread etc.

    I thought this thread was closed :eek: :eek:

    me and some other members decided to finally
    create this directory ,
    eventhough it's not an official DP directory but nonetheless it would help members to easily find sites owned by DP members instead of visiting sites of youdonowho

    so basicly members can check other members sites instead of visiting some strangers sites.
    and help them find partners....

    the directory is on a subdomain for the moment until we choose between the selection of domains we have

    Join the unofficial Directory

    hope after all the nagging some members will join .... eventhough i am very doubtfull

    evolving, I think you need to find another project to pass your time. The answer to this idea about a DP directory was an emphatic NO! Why do you insist on pursuing this? :confused:

    I don't think Shawn will need any more Paid Service.
    As he had disclosed a little, he gets enough from Adsense :D
    I also read this in an interview posted at some site. :)


    LOL

    Anyways getting straight to the point, This is a good suggestion.
    This is a PR 7 forum and will help us :D
