Hey, my name is Mark (as you've probably guessed). I'm from Dublin. I am interested in Web Design and run a Web Design company with 3 friends. We've made 800 euro so far...not great but better than nothing. I'm also really into a full-time career in computers. I have worked part-time in a sports centre managing their subscriptions software....and this summer after my holidays to Germany I will be working there again, this time taking over for their IT manager while she is going on maternity leave . I applied to be an editor yesterday, but got rejected.....I don't mind though because I was in a rush and knew what I done wrong. So I re-applied just over an hour ago (hope…

Hi, I attempted to access the 'adult' section of the forum to enquire about the status of my application for an adult category. It needs a password, yet there were no references to where this could be attained. Many thanks, Brett

Are these sentences grammatical? And if not, could you rewrite for me or explain what’s wrong inside? Please:) Mr. Tulip used to be a guy of treachery, so I won’t back him up since he has trouble in his penthouse in this outskirt. Our disgusting mayor once announced this slain outskirt is where paupers used to gathering due to its slum-like region. Though many outcast infants are born and living in suffering, most of then comport respectfully and never beg for a mug of drink in their life.

I read dozens of threads about the relevancy of the work we do here (good & bad) and just thought this might shed some perspective on and provide some context around what is happening. http://www.oreillynet.com/lpt/a/6228 In the "...'90s notion that the web was about publishing, not participation; that advertisers, not consumers, ought to call the shots; that size mattered, and that the internet was increasingly being dominated by the top websites as measured by MediaMetrix and other web ad scoring companies." The Architecture of Participation Some systems are designed to encourage participation. In his paper, The Cornucopia of the Commons, Dan Bricklin no…

Many editors here must be familiar with the zeal directory. It was a human edited directory with quite a large community and large independent index. Owned by looksmart, owe be upon them, who decided that they could not even pay for the servers of zeal, zeal has now been clkosed down.

Hi all. It was rude of me not to say hello when I first became a member. My excuse is that I have been really busy learning the do’s and don’ts of being a pest here.

Hurray! (If listing in PHP, please list the root. That probably means waiting until there is root-level content; so don't yet.)

I was recently reinstated as an editor and am able to login to my editor dashboard and successfully edit my category. However I am unable to access my affiliations. When I click the affiliation links (What's this?, edit or 3 more) it asks me for my id and password again and does not accept the id and password I use for the editor dashboard. It also does not give me a chance to request that my password be sent to me. My id is dottystorer. How do I gain access to my affiliations? I want to be sure that they are up to date, so that I am not breaking any dmoz rules. Also, I originally reported this problem by replying to the reinstatement email from staff @…

An Englishman in Manhattan is seeking a quality pork pie, made in the English style. Surely somewhere in this un-sceptred isle there is a proper pork pie. Please? (I made a similar request earlier, but the thread seems to have disappeared. Perhaps I posted it to the wrong place: if it should resurface, please take appropriate action — that being telling me two places where one can buy a pork pie.)

Do ODP editors do anything? I submitted a new site over an hour ago, and nothing has happened. WAKEY WAKEY! Welcome to the brave new world of the internet where things move fast. Things happen NOW! Not tomorrow, not mañana or whenever it suits your lazy selves. Move it! Do you have a streamlined competent process for new submissions? Is there an immediate email to ***all*** editors with relevant permissions, exhorting them to review things straight away. Get on with it! Or is this a sit-back-and-hope-for-whatever type of operation, in which somebody might or might not show up to work whenever it suits their drinking schedule? Allowing that kind of stuff may be accepta…

I came here to check on the status of the submission for my personal website, located at ultra150s.com but I just found out that waiting seems to be the only the anwser. Anyway, since I'm here and I don't see many good wishes and happy faces around for the editors and their volunteer work I will take the opportunity to wish all editors and dmoz staff a very... Happy New Year Ultra150s
