Thank you dogbows, thank you jgwright. I will remember your advice:
Just apply to be an editor. Sycophanting around here won't get your account auto-magically upgraded... :)

Sorry to interrupt you lot congratulating yourselves (probably deservedly) but could one of you tell me exactly what is involved in being an editor. Is it just a question of going thru a list of sites and saying yes or no.

I'm thinking of applying.

No, it's more than that. For a start there's no 'list', you've got the whole www to categorize. Actually there are a few more chores besides finding, adding, deleting and editing sites (and categories) as well but I won't let you in that secret. :) And the factors that mean a site gets deleted or listed really can be quite complicated. I don't know if that's turned you on or off. Advise look around here a bit more then if you're still interested apply for a category you're knowledgable in with just a few sites (10-50?) and you'll find out a lot more about how it ticks...

Right, thanks - I didn't think it would be that easy. I'll look around a bit more and take it slowly.

And miromulus did not think he would qualify for an editor because in his words "I am just a regular Joe".

Well, you weren't around much for a while, so it did not seem obvious why it was there. And BTW, why would I be upset that you find a different supplier. You are a thief, not a buyer. :D

CC, I noticed your application was in Chinese, so it can sometimes take longer for non English applications to be reviewed. Not as many Chinese speaking Metas to review applications. It took longer for miromulus. I think his was in Romanian. Just hang in there. It will happen when it happens. And Good Luck.
