I don't think that deobfuscator is a ex-editor. From his actions, I have my suspicions it is the same person or group that has tried bribe and blackmail me before to silence. I think the lesson learned is that anyone who is going to seriously challenge DMOZ corruption must be on his/her guard since bribery, blackmail and even threat of physical violence are not unusual. These are very unusual actions for people who are supposedly volunteers and have no financial gains. I wonder what sidjf and other editors that silently reading this thread thinking now that they know they are editing side by side with this kind of people.
Oh Gworld, Gworld, Gworld. I've just blown your little game apart. How do your "friends" view you now, now they know you are a pornographer? I think that ends the cosy "triumverate". So, now you've been exposed, you come up with more lies and filth to try and protect your position. You are an adult web HOST and WEBMASTER. No wonder you can copy-and-paste bits of the law! I really don't know how you can show you face around here again.. EVER. Edited: if you add sites to your signature, you can't be surprised if people do the research. Edited further: ODP editors might like to research those URLs for their own amusement.
You were dead set against porn a while ago. How do you feel now that one of your DP buddies has been exposed as a pornographer?
We are all shocked at gworld. He will be forever be shunned by the DP community and we won't send him Xmas cards anymore. What the hell does this have to do with DMOZ and it's flaws? If you want to engage in personally attacks to boost your ego, go to the Resource Zone.
Some one made this crap up! I think that ends the cosy "triumverate". We are just members of the same forum, we have no "special relationship" other than the fact that we are fellow members of Digital Point man! Believe it or not Minstrel and I agree on little, for example he is a Windows man and I am anti Windows, go back and read the threads here to see that fact if you wish! Maybe Minstrel will find the links to the threads and post them, if not just take my word for it! PS: Try to spell "Cozy" and your title for us right next time! PPS: I have no less of an opinion of Gworld now that he has a few porn sites, I have seen a few Playboy magazines in my day, but I would not run porn sites and feed it to kids myself.
Yes, but you are in denial (look it up) that one of your DP buddies has turned out to be a pornographer and adult web host. As I said, HIS name is on the adultsfreehost.com and adultsad.com domain. It's not a question of being on the same host - Gworld IS an adult web host and pornographer.
Can you possibly be as stupid as your posts here would suggest? Do you really not get ANY of what has been said in this 46 page thread? Or are you deliberately feigning stupidity? Actually, I am beginning to wonder if this guy was ever an editor at all - surely even DMOZ has higher standards than that. I think it quite possible that he is merely a troll who flew in to do what trolls do when they are bored.
Hey Butt Munch. Are you not going to answer my question to you? What does this have to do with DMOZ and its flaws. Quit playing games and trying to divert attention to something else. You have only made yourself look like a goober here, no one else.
I'm not sure how things are in Louisiana, but I would hazard a guess, debating skills are probably not subject matter for the GED. See, the thing about humor it needs to make sense, but a "me too" guy like you probably doesn't get that... Calling me "Krusty", for instance, makes no sense, hence not funny. It made no sense when minuscule first coined it. All it does is illustrate how you are mindlessly following your lord, and serves only to demonstrate your lack of independent thought. But considering what you come up with when left to rely on your own faculties, I understand your need to follow. "Baaa Baaa, little sheep." Now someone, I don't recall who, made some sort of "G-string" connection with my screen name back when you guys, being as opened minded as you all seem to be, were freaked out about gay porn. That was funny, you see because my screen name has a "G" in it... and male models are known to wear "G-Strings." See how it works? There needs to be some sort of connection obvious to the audience you hope to amuse with your cutting wit. Your GED line falls flat, imo, because it is obvious I did not get a GED. Now had you said something like, "Gee, you should have joined the debating club while you were wasting your time at Harvard..." Would probably get a much better reception. But, better luck next time. Ah, I see so only the great and wise minuscule can personally attack editors and how dare they defend themselves. Don't these stupid people know how brilliant he is??? Heaven help those who do not agree... or the Mighty minuscule will send his minions out to attack... Fly monkeys... Fly... I tried to address the issues and all you did was call names and attempt to insult and bully. Just as you and your peons have done through this entire thread. You ignored every point anyone made that did not fall in line with your "truths". The Digital Pointless crew once again justifies their twisted reality. Sid, no one is defending pedophilia. But that is just not enough for this crowd. They're a friggin' lynch mob. If someone doesn't fall in line and mindlessly follow this group think they are attacked. It's their M.O. They have nothing to substantiate what they say and the sad thing is, no one expects them to... they can say anything to anyone from DMOZ and if someone calls them on it, they turn it around and accuse editors of doing every last thing they do... typical. Someone corrupt thinks everyone else is corrupt. Someone that manipulates accuses everyone else of manipulation. They don't want to solve the problems, they just want to attack with no reprisals. When you bring up a valid point, they ignore it, they redirect, they make false accusations and they bully. There's just no reason to think you can engage them seriously about problems. That's not what they want. This threads proves it. A serious issue was raised (after a couple dozen lies) and editors said, "yes it is a problem and we are addressing it." And here we are hundreds of posts later proving acknowledging the problem and working to correct it was not the intention of this thread. It was all about trying to discredit DMOZ not about pedophilia. Pedophilia was just a conveyance. They used and exploited the problem, to get what they really want. Just look at how they are defending gworld... the guy cranks out dozens of no content adult spam (which, by the way are not on the IP listed). Oh sure, DMOZ and it's editors are the only ones they attack... Where are their moral compasses and their "we are talking about right and wrong" indignation now? Nowhere... because they are not about those things at all, they are about hating DMOZ. Point to something exactly what they claim to be so outraged about and they say "that doesn't matter." Of course it doesn't matter, because it is not DMOZ. They are nothing more than hypocrites. And here we have gworld again... spewing more lies... playing the blame game. He is a proven liar, no one should take this guy seriously, but so long as it is based in anti-DMOZ swill, he gets a pass... and there will be people in here backing him up on these "oh they tried to blackmail me and wanted bribes to list my site" BS. Let's be real, if someone offered to list his junk for a price he would have jumped at it. He's already claimed to spend that same cash on hijacked sites... Let's face it... he's claimed lots of pretty sleazy actions and yet since he hates DMOZ all the DMOZ haters rally around him...
Actually, it does. You just don't understand it. Not a surprise... Of course. That must be it. There can't be anything wrong with what DMOZ is doing so anyone who suggests there might be a problem is of course acting on a hidden agenda. As always, totally missing the point. We are not defending gworld or his sites. We are trying to help you understand that any sites he may or may not own have nothing to do with the issues at hand.
Not a chance - RZ is heavily moderated and will remove personal attacks of that nature. He only got away with it here as there seems to be no moderation. I would say it gives what he says additional credibility. I got told several times by Adult editors that I simply did not understand the industry, hence my comments were not valid. Nothing whatever. Failed attempt to discredit an argument by attacking the person and falling flat on his face. Cosy is proper English, cozy is the US corruption of the word.
You make about as much sense as a football bat. Guess what, Educated One. There is an "usty" in your name too. So you should find Krusty to be as funny, if not funnier, than G-String. Yes, it's kind of obvious. But I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt.
Alright, the thread is now in a shit slinging mode, but we need to get back on topic before management locks it up! The topic is, will AOL continue to list porn sites via DMOZ?? Not if Gworld is Larry Flint folks! So can we address this issue instead of attacking Gworld This thread is not about Gworld guys, he did not start it, nor is he the subject of it, he is simply a contributor to it.
Briz, Actually, gworld is not an adult webmaster nor a host. He's a reseller and adult affiliate junk provider. If he were actually a host or a pornographer his sites would have been listed, but his sites have no content nor do they provide a service of their own.
Oh man, come on.... Enuff of name calling - I thought I got away from that, sadly I am mistaken...... I do not want to go and find another forum lolol. So please enough of the insults - thats chat room stuff..... Please
Either way he would have more knowledge of the Adult web industry and the legalities than most people here. And it still has no relevance whatsoever to the issues in this thread. Be that listing child molestor networking sites, listing affiliate content sites, or identifying possible abusive editing.
It it extremely relevant, because we've uncovered the fact that not only is Gworld a pornographer, but he is an UNSUCCESSFUL pornographer who has apparently failed to get a listing in the ODP. That is what sustains his argument. You need to completely discount the posts from Gworld on this, particularly those "quoting" the law, because we have clearly demonstrated that he is motivated by dislike of the ODP rather than any altruistic ideas. Given that he was the triumverate's last best hope, you can see that most of the argument in this thread is just self-serving BS. There's no need to justify yourself against a combination of a failed pornography, schoolyard bully and self-confess hypocritcal porn user (Antony). These three have tried to lead to topic off course for their own ends. In the case of Gworld, it's destroyed his reputation in the process. There is nothing further to gain from this charade of self-serving crap by these three. I don't think they'll ever be taken seriously again.
nah, nah, nana, naaaahhh. Gworld you bad little boy... Once again nothing to do with the point AND further degrades this members credibility. There's so much pointless crap being posted here that I don't really like returning, the only reason I do is to see if progress is actually being made with ODP on this issue. It appears that there is action being taken as the adult category seems to have been carefully reviewed, editors dealt with appropriately, content removed and editors actually showing concern. Now, if we could remember that threads like this are sticky (EDIT: Pardon pun) and public let's stay on topic, stop posting personal crap or stop posting. IT appears as though there's a house cleaning going on at ODP and that's right on .
