Hi, I recently experienced some of what others have who no longer work at the ODP and don't know why. It hasn't been that long that I've been unable to log in...
Welcome to XODP, Bantychick Unfortunately, there is little recourse to be reinstated in ODP once an editor is cast out. The only exception would be if you did...

Bantychick, you indeed got caught up in the middle of a power struggle over at ODP. Suggest you go with Robo's suggestion and take a look at Zeal. At least...
Thanks Robozilla, It's nice to be here. I did already check out Zeal and GoGuides today. I think GoGuides is cute, and there is definitely a need for more...
You think? I looked at a bunch. I think Zeal was one of the ones that I liked the system of. I will look at it again right now :) Jos ... From: new_adv To:...

Yes, it was horrible. Also no one, even those I thought were on friendly terms, will speak to me. As soon as the forum on this silly little chicken showing...

Hi sabre23t, I've admired your work at the ODP while searching through all that is there. There are some neat tools and functions there. I especially had fun...
Hello, let me introduce myself. I'm Jimmy Wales, co-founder of Nupedia and Wikipedia, the open content encyclopedias. You can read about these projects here: ...
Wow that's really neat Jimbo. I like that magic button and now have my own in my favorites. I had a couple questions, though: Does the directory have...
I tried the magic button on my own chicken links page, and I see it added it to a place where there's another chicken site. Also, I see the search bar on the...
... It has categories, but not in a "tree". For example, someone put a link to a website about chickens into the category 'chickens'. Someone else put a link...
Greetings all...first off, I have to say I'm not actually an exODPer...I spend my days over at Zeal, but since we're in a similar "space" (if that's what it's...
Hi Surfcat :) Nice to meet ya! I'm bantychick on the web and Jos to those who know me better. I worked at ODP and now I work at GoGuides starting today ! Jos ...
Hi Jos, glad to meet ya...GoGuides seems like a great project, and I know of a few folks at Zeal who work over there too...always wondered, what's the...
LOL, I've looked at so many directories since leaving ODP that I don't think I could tell you the answer to that one right now, or to anything for that matter....

Back in from sorting out my oddball chicks from spring's genetics experiments. Darned if some of my crosses don't look just like the show lines. Makes it hard...
Hi Jimmy Wales, I was wondering, is it possible for me to modify the magic button and make it work to add things to my Wiki? I'm using UseMod Wiki scripts. I...
As most of you know I *chose* to challenge certain practices at the ODP as an ODP editor way back back in 2000. The resulting effect was a deactivated login. ...
Good article. That's horrific about listing all the editors who have ever been had by ODP on the front page of the site. Speaking of which... I just stopped in...
It is elementary knowledege that the goal of any for profit company such as Yahoo, Microsoft, and the now bankrupt Enron is to generate profit. On the other...
Hello Jos, thanks for the compliment. Horrific is one way to decribe the tactic used by the ODP in which they give the illusion that they have more editors...
