Not that this really is the place for this kind of discussion, but
your claims are just too far from the truth to be left unanswered.

First start by reading /about/ and /FAQ/ at http://ordb.org/

Not true! Close your open relay, submit it for a retest and the
server will be removed.

If Erols is an open relay, then they will be listed as such - if
they don't, then they won't be listed.

Not true. Ordb.org does not have any manual listings - everything is
based on automated testing, such that only misconfigured servers 
that permit relaying (and thus are vulnerable to spammers) can be
listed. And yes! I know this for a fact.
