    Me and Solid_nuts just had stories removed.

    I literally just had one buried I think by staff like 5 minutes ago, almost definitely because of the Digg exchanges here.

    Just giving a heads up.

    who cares?

    if you're using digg the way you're supposed to, there's no reason to care if they watch these forums or not...heh

    Not yet, but my recent stories that I had exchanged here from my site got instantly buried.

    Never happened before until now.

    Hello,
    Yes, someone is looking around,

    Think if you work in Google, Digg, etc, and I want to see what is happening.. I could take a look around DP, VN7, and the major forums :) Is easy to ban users just looking what happen here :)

    Best,
    Jakomo

    That's all you have to do. They can't see which ones you getting diggs too unless you post the link.

    That's right.

    And I believe that any exchanges of diggs that occurs on many webmaster forums is against their terms so they have the total right to ban you.

    A couple months back I remember when a ton of members got banned from digg for doing that.

    So I guess if you want to cheat the system then PMing the URL is probably the safest.

    I don't know why people are shocked.

    People cheat Google and wonder why oh why did Google ban me?

    It's the same thing with Digg. They will ban you if you cheat. So don't do it and you won't have to worry :).

    Everyone's always looking for the easy way out.

    Nothing new!

    Don't put Live links,
    if you click on live links and DIGG knows from where you came,after couple of time you will get banned.

    No one is reading DP dude
    Digg can know that by the referral (stat) links ,thats why member should NOT post live links.
