    the inner pages have PR5

    its not someone trying to make a quick bick, so for PR purposes, $1 for a PR5 link is ace:D

    I see something fishy there!

    it use dto be a pilot site i.e. airforce pilot, if i'm not wrong, so it is a converted site and I guess the owner is someone here at DP.

    I hope he will keep his site as a bidding directory so all the submitted site is still there.

    i still wanna know why dollar linking was removed.

    maybe because its just a "buy a link" farm

    and not a categorised "buy a review" bidding directory...

    Google has banned webmasters from sellking links. So when you put "buy a link" on your site, you are just asking for a ban....

    Isnt famousdirectory.net yours? the same automated script, where you dont even bother removing the casino sites? :p

    people don't work over the weekend

    There is nothing to worry about, i'm pretty sure your link will be approved. Don't panic.

    As a rul with bid directories, always make your first bid nice and low. Then if you never get approved you wont of lost $xxx from a first bid.
