Posting Guidelines
Topics - Good and Bad
In order to ensure that those who really want help can get it in as expedient a way as possible, certain rules have been drawn up. In particular, the following topics may not be discussed.
* Specific complaints about being removed as an editor.
* Complaints about specific people working or volunteering their time at ODP.
* Discussion of the ways in which ODP runs itself.
* Discussion of any confidential information by current, or past, ODP editors.
* Discussion of how to use the ODP to optimize search engine rankings and site promotion. This ODP is not a search engine, and we don't rank or optimize web sites.
* Discussion of editing issues - these should be discussed in the editor forums, not in the public forum.
* Discussion of ways to circumvent or violate official DMOZ policy.
* Discussion of your "Freedom of Speech" rights. While the ODP is based on democratic principles, it does not try to imitate a democratic government. You are free to talk about anything you want... somewhere else.
