I used to be a editor over at the Open Directory Project and edited nearly 100 areas until a overzealous editall or whatever they call them over there killed my editors account with no warning. That was about 2 years ago. What is very funny and also sad was that I was solely responsible in editing several sections that had nearly 5000 links and about half of them have not been touched in 2 years. I have the screen captures to prove it.
Here is a link to the US Navy section I edited all by myself for nearly 2 years. Luckily they finally added some new editors and the area is getting updated. But there are other areas that have not been updated since I was kicked to the curb.
I was quite pissed at the time as there was never any reason given as to why I was kicked to the curb. But I swear it was a personal vendetta, but anyway that was a long time ago and I do not need to get on that rant again.
Seems one of their editors has launched a blog that is trying to keep the general public and it’s editors up to date on happenings. I just wish someone would approve Geek News Central’s request to be added. It has only been about 5 months since we put in the request.
