Since I was fired myself with total BS evidence being used I have no doubt that cancer was reason for removal, unlike does brainwashed fools which claim to blindly believe everything metas says - no proof necessary. With such community who needs enemies?
How on earth could you fit into a community when you needed to remove most of it to feel comfortable. I think the only fit would be a misfit. Interesting that in an earlier thread Annie removed any comments about her removal. Perhaps some of the rest of you should not feel that you could re-tell and twist her story, a story that she does not seem to want to dredge up every second post. I admired annie as an editor and continue to do so in the way she has conducted herself after being removed. For me that is an end to my debating that subject.
My gut feeling is that there are only a few bad apples taking bribes and coming into webmaster forums bashing any criticism. It's just my take.
Sorry, what facts were those. Jean was talking about an official blog or posts with editors representing ODP to the public. Note my sig, I represent me, not ODP. I also have the decency not to violate someone's privacy by quoting private conversations, something which you don't seem to have.
It depend on category that you submit ,some are very eesy to be listed because it have a few site there and a few website submitted.
If you have offered your site in the last 9 months, don't bother doing it again, it will not help. If it was in 2006 or earlier then offer it again because all submissions were lost during a crash in late 2006. Please don't listen to those who tell you to pay money to get in, because if it is discovered that you even offered an editor money to get your site listed you will have the site blacklisted for ever.
