My application to become a DMOZ editor was denied

The Open Directory project is a joke. An absolute, pathetic joke. I am an expert in my field, I have time to devote to providing REAL evaluations of websites, and I'm extremely computer literate. I made an offer of MY time as a gesture of goodwill, and was denied. Of course, a reason wasn't given; instead a "go to hell" form email was sent out with a laundry list of possible reasons. I don't know for sure, but I suspect that my application was rejected because of my very expertise in web design and development. Not only that, but it took them less than 75 minutes to deny my application!

They have become so paranoid over at the ODP that an application from anyone related in any way to the internet industry is denied, thinking that the applicant has ulterior motives. I don't just guess this, I know this for a fact - I've chatted privately with several editors who have an inside track on the comings and goings of DMOZ. My motives in applying was to donate some of my time to a project that is going to hell and appears to be going in the wrong direction.

So here's what I am going to do: I'm going to create a completely false persona. I will change my gender, age, career, and other demographic information and reapply to the same category under which I was denied as a web designer. I will post an update as soon as they confirm or deny my application.
