Hello,
I did today an application to become an editor and this was not my first application.


After a few hours I received an email
Code:
Dear ****22,

Your application for a new editor account at the Open Directory Project has been rejected because we believe you already have (or had in the past) another editor account. We have a strict rule of only one account per person (see http://www.dmoz.org/guidelines/accounts.html ). If you wish to edit the directory, you will need to use your existing / previous account rather than applying for a new one.

If your account is active and you know your password, you should be able to log in at http://www.dmoz.org/editors/ and continue editing. If you want to apply for a new category, please see the advice at http://www.dmoz.org/newperms.html and then use the "Request to be editor for another category" link at http://www.dmoz.org/editors/ to submit an internal new permissions request.

If you have forgotten your password, you can use the form at http://www.dmoz.org/public/forgetpass/ to reset it. (But you need to be able to receive email sent to the address we have recorded for you.)

If you had an account previously that has now lapsed, then you need to apply for this account to be reinstated. Please use the form at http://www.dmoz.org/reinstate.html for this. You will need to know your editorname and previous password. If you don't know either of these details, then please ask for help in the "Becoming an Editor" forum at http://www.resource-zone.com/ . It is usually possible for us to identify your account from other information you can supply, and we can then arrange for the password to be reset.

We hope you will be back editing with us shortly.

Regards, DMOZ Team

Actually I don't have and did not have an account. I tried to reset the password via the reset form with this username. Nothing happens.

If you'd like us to comment meaningfully, we'll need to know the category and username that you requested.

This is not true. You already have an account and you have also made a request for that account to be re-activated. So you can not apply for a new account.

Your request to be reinstated as editor is waiting to be processed.

Thanks informator,
As I wrote, I never was an active editor. It looks like a former application has been accepted but I never received the confirmation and never used the account. I will double check my spam folder and I will wait for the reactivation then.

Thank you every for the attention to this issue and have a great day.
