    Name calling is not nice. However, calling someone a fool:
    is quite different than saying that someone is worthless and should be thrown away:

    Could you explain why you are on the one hand claiming that you have paid for listing three time yet on the other saying you don't care if your sites are listed? This seems a rather inexplicable contradiction.

    @lmocr
    Sorry lmocr, I am an island boy remember. Unfortunately english is not my primary language though I am a US Citizen. But I can give SOME pointers too since I speak 4 languages and 4 local dialects.

    English - Garbage
    Japanese - Gome
    Spanish - Basura
    Tagalog - Dumi

    Ilokano - Urmot
    Waray - Yapon
    Bikol - Uragon
    Cebuano - Pisti

    Should you become an editor in World Languages and you need help, I will be glad to assist you.;)

    Sure, no problem. You're talking about Resource Zone I wouldn't recommend it, but if you really want to try and open their eyes, good luck with it.

    A friendly tip: Wear your flame-proof suit. :D

    I hope they listen, I heared they even never reply for posts with topics "why my site isnt approved", "How loing does it take", "can I be editor", similar posts.

    Don't worry about, even when they answer, their answers are totally useless. You can say that the answers and the people who run it are the same quality. ;)

    I guess that is because is is Run, Sponosred, and Moderated, By ODP Editors.

    Imran, in all fairness, I need to tell you I've been joking around with you.

    I'm am a DMOZ editor and there are a bunch of other editors here who are also members of this forum. I come here to listen and have fun, not necessarily in that order, depending on my mood on any given day. Also, the owner of the Digital Point forum is a timed out DMOZ editor. Maybe he'll come back to DMOZ, maybe he won't, it's his choice and he's certainly welcome. ;)

    Resource Zone is owned by a meta editor and is run by a group of volunteer editors but it's not an official part of DMOZ, just so you know. You can find us anywhere, even here. :)

    I don't think it has got anything to do with ODP, in my opinion the people involved in RZ will be the same independent of the time, place or organization. ;)

    A small minority of DMOZ editors.

    Really, It looks official, lots of innocent victims think it's official, but I promise you, it's not official. In reality I have a great deal of respect for each individual editor who participates in the resource-zone forum without exception. But as a group, I'm sad to say, not so much. :(
