    This is an empty category which I've always understood to be a bad thing.

    Google Directory is fed by an ODP RDF and they don't have this empty category.

    It seems that someone who have submitted a site to this at some point?

    There are no suggestions to that category - maybe you can find a couple? Make extra points in this game by offering a couple of good suggestions?

    There used to be listings in that category but all of those sites no longer exist so it was left empty. We need an editor to go out and find sites for it, or maybe there's no need for the category and it should be disbanded. I wrote a category description and submission guidelines for the charter, to better explain the purpose of the category.

    There were 45 suggestions waiting for review for that category, none belong there...all must be moved and some were waiting for as long as a year. A good example of why you should always take the time to find the correct category. I moved a few but don't have time today to do them all so it goes on my already very long to-do list. :(

    Yes, this would be so appreciated. In the meantime I added a couple of related category links.

    How ironic that you chose that category just as I decided I can no longer play. The amount of red rep I'm getting from this thread is just unbelievable. I don't get it. :confused:

    Well if anyone is giving you reds for "playing along" than that's just chicken shit in my book quite honestly.

    I have found this to be quite theraputic, fun and even useful, bringing some outdated and neglected categories to some level of attention.

    Granted, I must admit that many, if not all of the "out dated" categories being exploited here are ones without editors - but that too is partly the point.

    That's what I thought. Ah well, red rep doesn't bother me, it's the intent behind it. I'll get over it and maybe play tomorrow.

    Thanks for the kind words. :)

    Some people need to chill out and take comfort from how hard it is to find the categories! I've been amazed at how Atari etc are all well maintained. Who'd have thought!
