Changing your site listing

Hi.
I used to have an old website (1999) on Angelfire. It was listed in Dmoz.
Recently, I purchased a nice domain name and hosting and moved the whole website there.

I went to the Dmoz website, and followed the instructions for, "Changing Your Site Listing".

Now, Dmoz has deleted my listing entirely!! It's gone!

Has anyone successfully changed their site listing in Dmoz?

 

If you're talking about the site in your profile - it's still listed.

 

No, the website I'm writing about is not in my signature.

 

I did manage to change a number of of my sites listed at the DMOZ. For the primary website address (the main domain name) I emailed the editior himself, and he took care of it for me within a few days.

 

Hey, Smyrl,

Could be that my domain name change came under, shall we say, torturous circumstances, and when I explained all this to the editor, he was very sympathetic and might have pushed the change through faster because of it.

 

It's one thing not to change it.
But quite another to just delete it totally.

Unfortunately, I don't know the editor's email address or their name.

 

I hope you are right, Smyrl.

Thank you for the hope.

 

If you give the original URL I am sure one of the editors around here will have a quick look. It could have been moved, it may have been offline when someone checked it so was moved back to Unreviewed - there are lots of possibilities other than being completely removed. But only the original URL can reveal the history.

 

If this is how you think about DMOZ why are you an editor?
Or are you just one of those interested in listing and promoting their own sites. I would say yes after looking at your profile in DMOZ.

 

Yeah, vintage Resourceless Zone, that thread - masters of the witty repartee and the canned "that's just the way it is"...

Now if they do that to their editors, you know it's no holds barred for non-editors.

 

How original... he quotes the Resourceless Zone...

And you, pagode? What kind of editor are you?

Let me give you a hint, so you don't overtax your wee brain: http://www.google.com/search?source...&rls=GGLJ,GGLJ:2006-05,GGLJ:en&q=define:toady

 

I am not surprised of the answers you got in that thread, just the usual idiots.

I suppose the fact that they are incompetent morons make them ideal for being Admins and metas since it will guaranty, that there will be no real change in DMOZ.

 

I suppose you don't read the internal forums or posts in RZ very often, otherwise you wouldn't make such statements.
Start reading the forums and you can find at least one a day.

 

Yes: I don't know that Eric-the-Bun name but jimnoble, Motsa, and bobrat? Once they enter a thread, say goodbye to rational discussion about anything.

I just realized something - bobrat is macdesign Why didn't I notice the resemblance before? You can dress 'em up but you can't de-moronize 'em
