    Well, I found out that if yours is a gambling niche directory or site, then they have a problem and notify you to remove paypal.

    So it means that directories owners like us who take payment from a gambling site. But our directory is not gambling related should not worry about this. Right?

    I decided t remove those sites even before you gave me the paypals URL address

    Their policy states that
    What does this mean activities include but are not limited to?

    It just means that there might be other types of activities that are prohibited - but not listed. In other words, their listing is not exhaustive of all prohibited gambling activities.
