in the last couple of weeks, I have received a couple of warnings at DP.

I am not a spammer, I don't insult people on forums, I try not to post rubbish and I make my living online.

Now, I don't hang out at DP a lot, but I got one warning for bumping a thread where I was looking for links and one for "posting" to a thread where the guy asked for a PM.

Fucking SUE me!

Talk about the epitome of unnecessary forum moderation.

One more reason that forums like WickedFire will continue to gain ground.
 


As someone mentioned, the marketplace is good, but for an "anyhat" like myself, I've been getting a little tired of the same bullshit from the holier than though white hats.
 
Ive been there since spring of 2005 and it started going downhill when it was flooded with spammer/noobs from indonesia and india. Used to be a pretty good forum but just so much filler that I dont have time to wade through it all.
 
Ive gotten 2 warnings recently for threads started in the wrong category...

One of them was a thread I started in the Google area asking about the webmaster tools, indexing on Google, etc. and the fucker moved it to Reviews>SEO and gave me a warning....
 
The stats on the faq page show some incredible growth, 160 new users a day. The problem is 90% of those are Indians who cant string a sentence together.
 
I definitely think that any quality content on DP is excruciatingly diluted by the number of non-English speaking posters making hundreds of threads asking why their Adsense accounts were banned. It's just not worth it to sift through.
 
I agree - the quality has been going down hill for quite a while. The pay per click and affiliate sections are completely junk. The market place needs to be cleaned up though. They special categories for directories and Myspace sites because it makes it nearly impossible to find something decent without weeding through all these shitty websites.

Just visited DP for the first time in several months and it's seriously horrible. 90% of the posters sell PR2 directory links in their sig and have a blog that is obviously just copy/pasted articles from somewhere else.
 
I think Jon really should prepare for the invasion of indian "yous making moneys on the interwebs?" retards. It's only a matter of time before they swarm here, there needs to be an action plan in place.
