Hello,

I know you are busy but I was just wondering on my submission of http://www.tweaknews.net.

I submitted to the Computer/Hardware/Technical Evaluations and Product Reviews about 2 months ago.

Did my submission get through?

Thanks for your time and keep up the good work. <img src="/images/icons/grin.gif" alt="" />

I'm sorry to say that the area is very backlogged. The submission is still waiting for review.

Any Idea when they will be clearing the backlog?

Seems like others are getting posted within a month. Why is this category taking 6-8months?

All editing is done by volunteers, so we can't give any estimates. If less people volunteer for a special area, less work is done there. Looks like there are more submissions than editors in that area.

Is there any improvement in this category?

Been waiting patiently for 5 months now. :confused:

And it won't be answered unless you ask after 7:58 PM, Pacific Daylight Savings Time, on October 11.

Sorry about that, I know about the month rule, but made a mistake reading the dates.

Any update on Tweaknews.net?

People are working in the area, but your site hasn't been reviewed yet.

I said I saw no change in your URL. I didn't check whether there was activity in that category. In fact, it looks as if a site was added Sunday.

Then can you give me a reason why it has not been added in 1 1/2 years?

I'm not being rude, I just want to know what the hold up is? :(

It's not like my site www.tweaknews.net is a prank site or something.

Looks like people in Chinese tourism companies get faster inclusion than a legit computer hardware review site.

I don't mean to be rude but since you got an answer on September 30, 2004, 06:36 PM - you have to wait six months before asking again. Continued posting here really won't achieve anything - it won't get the site reviewed any faster - it will probably will get you annoyed with the whole ODP project since it does not serve your needs

You might want to review the forum posting guidelines. It also would be good for you to read the FAQ page.

You probably misunderstand the purpose of ODP.

It is not a listing service, therefore there is no timeframe - a suggested site might be listed in one day, it might be listed in five years, some will never be listed as we don't want them since they fall outside the listing guidelines. Sites are not reviewed in order, and many sites that are added have never even been submitted.

In the end, many webmasterswill find that even when listed, the presence of their site in ODP provides no significant benefits.

That's a value judgement on your part - which is kind of self centred. Editors may not share that opinion.

There is no need for the arrogant and attitude soaked reply. I was not demanding anything from you or ODP. I was only joking when I stated the chinese tourism thing. :p

My sincere apologies on posting before the 6 month timeframe. I got the dates mixed up.

Again, I am really sorry about that. :eek:
