I think there is crookedness all through that directory.

I was booted out earlier this year after being in there for 4 years. No reason, no contact, tried resubmitting, no response and no reasons given. Only after finding someone with contacts there did I find out that I had too many affiliate links. No more then I had 4 years ago. Another reason was the content was presented was on many other websites.

I have so much good original content and I can honestly say that most of the other sites that followed stole from my site. This information was not public and I only learned it because I wrote software interfaces to the subject matter.

So others are allowed to stay with the same type of info and affiliate links as well.

DMOZ sucks and so does Google for playing along with their crookedness.
