    Just by looking at that one, I'm guessing because there are a million, billion similar threads already.

    Well this one is more recent, I suppose, perhaps making it more realiable. ???

    It wasn't deleted, just closed... so the thread is still there. {shrug}

    But it can't be updated. Like if I wanted my site (which is more resourceful than some of the ones listed) added, it can't be done.

    Well, I opened it for now... but if it gets closed again, well... sorry. Too many of those types of threads already. :)

    I think there was a post stating that it is infected with malware, you may want to doublecheck your links first and avoid causing harm to our members.

    It was probably closed because it invites mostly disallowed replies - "thanks" posts which aren't allowed and belong in rep or PMs or "add my site, here's the link" which is just self-promotion and link spam. It was a resource list created from a member... not a free for all for new links (no matter what the OP says).
