    Nah, my posts are listing tons of dead sites for language nobody understands. :D

    Since I'll never be able to become editor for Croatian language (hrvatski) I'll have others do the work of at lest removing dead, broken and spam links - by the time I'm done with them there won't be editor left who didn't hear about Croatia. ;)

    My advice would turn corrupt and donate money to charity (hint: Bolton) but that's just me. :D

    If I do that, then they've changed who I am. If they change who I am, they win.

    Then go into overdrive and list tons of high quality non-commercial websites - we shall set up underground network which will keep you constantly supplied with material so you'll be listing few thousand website a month - no DMOZ rule against that. :D

    Probably you were cutting too much in to his profit. Those poor Metas are working and must make a living or did you think that it was only a hobby? :rolleyes: ;)

    ah, but that's the point. It is a hobby. There should be no profit involved. And I'm not saying that particular meta is making a profit, in fact it would be just about impossible to convince me that she is. A more hardworking and honest meta would be hard to find.

    That's why it hurts so bad.

    Let's get busy with other options its much more fun to explore it. Editing you've been there and done that. You can be busy with a worthwhile hobby and some link finding by the quitters and add 1 more.

    As for the META Let her stay in her Hell where she always belongs. :D

    For majority:

    It is not a hobby.

    It is not a hobby.

    It is not a hobby.

    Just calculate the time they spend in DMOZ, add that to the time they spend spamming wikipedia and add that to the time that they spend editing in all other directories. If this is a hobby, when do they have time to work? :rolleyes: ;)

    There are some postings on freelancer websites, calling for DMOZ editors to list websites, and they are paying good money for it. Wonder, if they really get a DMOZ editor to do that.

    I have to confess my niches have become my obsession so if anyone says that Total war series, Mount&Blade or Paradox titles are boring games is going to get it! :D

    Darn now after I have calculated how much time I spent playing video games I'm really depressed, damn you gworld, now I'll have to play even more just to get out of this depression. :p

    DMOZ is BS.

    After the hard work and dedication of my big SIS in DMOZ and she gets in trouble ? If I know this META physically and see her walking around my neighborhood I will snatch n' hang her upside down pinching her nose every 5 minutes.

    Popotalk I appreciate your support, really, but the meta who doesn't like or trust me is a good person. She's hard working and dedicated and I have a great deal of respect for her. It's just very disheartening that it isn't mutual, given the level of dedication I've shown over the years. It hurts deeply, but the meta is a good person and a good editor. Just way too suspicious. Please try to forgive her humanity. I'm trying.

    DMOZ can become a good thing again as it was in the past. All we can do is wait and see what happens.

    This kind of distorts a reasoning for me. " A person who doesn't like me is a good person." "A person who doesn't trust me is a good person." She can start a prayer by Saint Francis of Assisi.
    Really ?! How much does she charge for a sitewide listing ?
    By now she should know, and know better. Thats how the Mafia operates.
    No, she's not, YOU are.

    Why not just throw an RZ admin or moderator through a window? You'd be doing the whole world a great service.

    Now that is just cruel and sadistic, Annie. I'm surprised at you, throwing huskies to the wolves like that. :eek:

    That has long been my worry about Annie, who is truly one of the good ones. Unfortunately, she sees good in people who are not good. That says a lot of positive things about Annie but not very much about the psychopaths who fool her.
