    Can you include the nice pretty expose that we had of the liars and cheaters of the ODP as well (that was a long list of backstabbers and friends of compostannie)? :rolleyes: And yes I am pretty keen on the ultramarine contest as well. Hows the forum doing ? :D

    The problem there is that they resort to petty jabs then consider the worth of the poster. They could likely get back on track by judging each webmaster on a case by case basis rather then lumping them all together. Ya know, kinda like how the members here treat the editors of DMOZ. If they are civil, and get along, then they are treated with the kindness and respect that they deserve. But if they come in here only to cut on the members here or their sites, then they get treated like they deserve.

    Though, putting up DP vs RZ for the levels of helpfulness, from the looks of it, DP beats the ODP hands down...but then, maybe that's because we are a group of webmasters looking out for each other. And if you look through the threads of people asking why they are not listed, you may notice it only takes a moment to load a page and see the reason...but editors are sooooo busy trolling forums they can't help their end users by helping the middle man (webmaster) get listed.

    This thread shows that it's one controversy after another, and each more silly then the last. The popularity of DMOZ was a brilliant plan on the part of the admin. Create a majorly popular idea, get it going and when it starts to faulty FLOOD it with trash that will keep people talking for years on end. So I guess KUDOS to you for keeping in line with the original ethos of the project.

    I don't disagree with you with regard RZ. With regard to DP I do. How do you hold sensible conversations when every third post is from Julain bursting in and telling everyone "they are all corrupt and they are all pedophiles" accompanied by lots of winking and eye rolling.

    And that is what many people overlook. I am glad you brought it up. This is a webmaster forum where the main purpose of many is getting their sites listed. It is not about creating a useful resource, nor is it really interested in the future of search other than what a webmaster can do to promote their sites.

    However there are many other webmaster forums where useful and productive discussion can and does take place. For some reasons the bitter and the twisted gravitate here.

    Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

    I don't think there's much of a democracy there. I suspect some bad meta's and editors are making some money off of it. No proof of course, just my suspicions.

    Most of us find that preferable to the same old DMOZ party being posted over and over when anyone who has been a DP member for at least a month is fed up with hearing it again.

    Are you seriously suggesting either that DMOZ is a useful resource to anyone except the inner sanctum? Are you seriously suggesting that DMOZ editors have an interest in the future of search? Most of you have no idea what modern search engines are even about. At least many of the successful webmasters can claim some knowledge of search - if only because they have to acquire that knowledge to become and remain successful. DMOZ is a dinosaur - the antithesis of search.

    Why are YOU here, nebby?

    What? That would break the guidelines as agreed to when they signed up to be an editor *smirk* If he did that, they might fire him without a dashboard warning!

    I have already lost one account to prove the the previous editors that posted the same nonsense that I don't criticize DMOZ because I can't get in, so no thanks. ;)

    People like one eye and Annie can tell that I am an editor and they have much more credibility that you will ever have. :D

    Oh, is this the editor that webmasters apply to get listed, supporting the porn and paedophiles, makes sense now...one of them adult editors, no wonder he's going blind and can't see what's written.

    So it seems. He says he is an editor (sometimes an editall!), he has a prolific connection to the porn industry, so it would be reasonable to conclude that many of the thousands of edits he claims to have done were to adult websites. It’s sort of a Jekyll and Hyde type of existence for poor Julian but he manages to hold it all together.

    Typical Resourceless Zone mentality. Don't answer any questions or address any issues. Just attack the person who raised them.

    And yes, nebby, I heard you say you haven't posted at RZ in 3 years. That clearly didn't stop you taking the mentality with you when you left.

    And you still haven't answered my question, nebby: With the clear disdain you hold for DP, why the hell are you hanging out here? Internal forums a little slow, are they?

    I see that you are still trying hard to be an ass. The simple fact is that you and other assholes like you don't know anything about me, otherwise I would have lost my editors accounts long time ago.

    I know you and your friends would like to either force people to quit or try to get rid of them by admins and Metas stupid excuses but it is not going to happen.

    I can understand that you and nebuchadrezzar add your affiliate links and sell links for the money but what about the pedophile listings? Do you defend and list them because of the deal that you make with other editors and money or is it a "personal" interest of you and really believe DMOZ listings nonsense that Children should have "the right" to have sex with adults?

    It seems for nebuchadrezzar is personal interest with his previous defense of those listings, I just hope that for you is for the money and you are not a pedophile on top of being such a low life.

    As you are a porn webmaster you probably know more about paedophiles than I do, so I bow to your expert knowledge.

    The way you are avoiding the question and getting defensive, it seems you and nebuchadrezzar share a common interest in defending "the rights" of the children to have sex with adult and the "free speech" for pedophiles. I am disappointed, I was hoping that you are just a regular low life. :rolleyes:
