Hi Nea.
Thanks for the response. I certainly don't want to suggest any impropriety on the part of an editor. Without discussing the site specifically (which I understand is verboten), we are one of the leaders in our area, we were listed in our most appropriate section, and now we aren't. I genuinely can't think of a legitimate reason why our site would be removed (the 'no specifics' rule makes this difficult to explain, but it really would equate to McDonalds being removed from Business: Hospitality: Restaurant Chains: Burgers).
I suppose what I'm asking is; is there no way to contact the editor of a particular area to at least make an enquiry into the possible reasons for removal? Reporting an abuse seems excessive, but doing nothing (or waiting an inderminate amount of time for resubmission) is not acceptable.
Is there really no middle ground?
