Hello,

Please visit this link,

http://www. shoemoney.com/2007/08/26/dmoz-extortion/

I don't think that any editor can do this kind of practice but if done then can you check that which editor remove the listing or you checked?

Thanks

Thats old news. Shoemoney has been exposed as a liar - he made it up for link baiting.

Hes not going to do that. He got 100's of links to his site from the link bait.

Well, there is really nothing we can do about it. if won't be the first time that someone has published untruths on the Internet and it certainly won't be the last time.

We'd rather expend our energies on building a directory.
