I am not sure. One of my sites is listed there and I didn't even submit it! So I guess I have nothing to complain about. I'm actually thankful because my site's PR increased.

Do you have any evidence? If there are corrupt editors? Please provide solid reasons and evidence for what you are saying.

@forumrating
I have an objection on your thread title ...
What do you mean by "getting" ...

Dmoz is crap already ...

Of course it isn't fair, money can disrupt anything It's been repeated over history several times. It's a pity because they were such a great directory..

Yeah - I have heard of this, their system now works on bribery, I am stunned to see Google still uses them. Dmoz is no more a reputed directory.
