I just finished a 2 day OSPF course (onsite) from ARC/GNK in which the
instructor (whom had a wealth of hands on) said everytime he had ever tried
the neighbor command it has never worked.
He suggested keeping frame-relay interfaces point-to-point or
point-to-multipoint (in which they don't have a DR/BDR). He did give a
strong argument for point-to-multipoint which I had never used before.

I checked the config guide and it shows the default priority as 0.
neighbor ip-address [priority number] [poll-interval seconds]
no neighbor ip-address [priority number] [poll-interval seconds]
Syntax Description
ip-address
Interface IP address of the neighbor.
number
(Optional) 8-bit number indicating the router priority value of
the nonbroadcast neighbor associated with the IP
address specified. The default is 0.
seconds
(Optional) Unsigned integer value reflecting the poll interval.
RFC 1247 recommends that this value be much larger
than the hello interval. The default is 2 minutes (120 seconds).
