(1) Your freedom of choice is untrammelled by the Open Directory.

As for the status, which we can tell even though you didn't ask, the site has been rejected. Since the editor didn't find anything on it that contributed to our mission, there was no reason to list it.

Obviously it was set up to serve your purposes, not the ODP's. And there's room on the net for a variety of missions, so there's no cause for concern or conflict.

Not sure how to interpret what you said... Many sites have multiple purposes.
That I currently see as being listed on the open directory

what specifically makes mine any different??

Let me translate for you the earlier reply you received since it appears you did not grasp it's meaning.
(1) Your freedom of choice is untrammelled by the Open Directory.
Was an answer to your question - Please let me know what else I need to do. - in other words, you are free to do what you wish, we do not dictate how you should create your web sites, how many you create or how you market.
As for the status, which we can tell even though you didn't ask, the site has been rejected. Since the editor didn't find anything on it that contributed to our mission, there was no reason to list it.
In your first post, you did not ask for the status for your web site, but it was assumed that was perhaps what you wanted. And the status that was given to you was - it was reviewed and an editor decided not to list it.
Obviously it was set up to serve your purposes, not the ODP's. And there's room on the net for a variety of missions, so there's no cause for concern or conflict.
Means your website was created for your needs, not ours, and that is fine, it should continue to serve your needs, but it does not serve the interests of ODP to list your site and we don't have any conflict with different goals.

-------

In answer to your latest question, the site has been submitted several times, and several editors have decided it will not be listed - so each time it was deleted - there is no reason to expect that will change.

And if you read the forum FAQ you will find we don't get into discussions about the reason why editors choose not to list sites.

I have one question

When reviewing those sites that are listed on DMOZ in many categories but specific to the categories I had requested to be listed, you and the previous editor stated I had my own purposes in mind...

What makes me an different than the follow sites that are doing similar things.. How do they get listed, but mine does not???:

http://www.freetrainers.com/

http://www.global-fitness.com/

http://www.plusoneactive.com/

http://www.fantasyfit.com/

http://www.sixpacknow.com/

And I could go on...........

I am not being smart, but I see no consistency in the decision making process as it relates to what gets in and what doesn't.......

Please clarify

Robert

Nothing devious was implied, you are trying to promote your site and make money, nothing wwong with that.

The ODP Editors are trying to list unique content. I cannot comment on the other links you post, since as I said, we don't get into discussions. I did not review your site and am not about to, neither am I about to review the other sites. All I am doing is reporting to your that more than one editor has looked at your site, and I trust their decision was correct.

I appreciate your thoughts

Being on your directory is important to me.. as it is for many many people...

If no one can explain why one is and one is not.. then it would seem to me that there are a lot of inconsistencies in the system...

I just would like to be on a level playing field with everyone else that fits my same classification or category..

In my opinion, based on these sites I shared with you and 100's more just like it..

I believe a biased exists at DMOZ...

What is wrong with using this site?

I am not sure what is wrong with using a software program like all these other sites do in some fashion...

As an certified personal trainer that works via the internet, I need tools to be able to provide clients with a program that they can visualize their workouts with...
fitnessgenerator happens to be the system i use for the training of clients with animated visual workouts...All these other sites have programs that may not be exactly like mine, but utilize other systems just like mine..

In fact all of these sites are focused on membership.... Each one.... lots of advertising for self promotion..... to gain membership.. I would classify that as self serving.... Yet they are listed......at DMOZ

Speaking of listings... I have a solid 100% reliable site.. These two sites below are on your listings under online personal trainers are Dead.. or bad links......

What does that speak for???
