Status of http://www.weightlossforall.com/

Hello, I would appreciate any feedback on the status of http://www.weightlossforall.com/ submitted to http://dmoz.org/Health/Weight_Loss/Articles/
The first time I submitted to ODP was about 6 months ago and I believe the category was http://dmoz.org/Health/Weight_Loss/
I did not receive any feedback about my site then and at the time did not know about this forum. I just assumed it was rejected although since then I have seen other sites listed and believe I should have no trouble, but i dont know.

Your site status is rejected. Please see the editor guidelines under the types of sites we don't list for the reason.

You will most likely never receive any feedback. The only feedback that is sent is usually by novice editors learning why we usually don't send feedback or we have to contact the webmaster for some type of temporary login information to review the site. In my experience, noone emails anyone if a site is rejected.

Just dont get why my site has been rejected considering the sites I've seen listed on ODP. I thought the whole point of the ODP was to list original content that would benefit the end user. There are so many people struggling to lose weight that its becoming an epidemic for our nations. For me now trying to do my best to help people get to a healthier place seems a waste of time, I say this because you have listed a site that has clearly copied my ideas but has nowhere near the content I have! This person has simply regurgitated basic information that the general public already seems to know where as I try to explain in leymans terms why some people find it hard to lose the real weight - original content!

It seems to me that the decisions are based on the editor and how he/she feels at that given time. I had real faith in you people and your ideas but now believe computers do a better job!

Let me say one last thing. Do you think I would have stood a better chance if I wrote an ebook and charged for it rather than try to give good information for free. Because I believe that most of the sites ODP list are making their fortune this way. Now I'm all for some ebooks if they help people understand how to lose the weight they are so deperate to lose, but there are so many rip off merchants out there that do the opposite to this. I read messages posted on forums about ebooks bought that ODP encourages by listing these poor sites.
Human editors to build a better directory? What rubbish!
I did not want to post this message but needed to vent my anger at you listing the site that clearly copies my ideas then reject my honest site!

I think there may have been a mistake made here (or maybe not) but your response leaves me rather disinclined to research it.

Maybe later when I've cooled off. Maybe not.

Status of site: Awaiting review again in http://dmoz.org/Health/Fitness/Weight_loss .

It's a pretty big pile of unreviewed, so it may take a while. If you haven't seen it listed, feel free to check back here (using this same thread) in a few months and someone will let you know the status.

But probably not me. I still don't like you.
