Does StumbleUpon have stop words?

    I just stumbled a page on a client's forum because I thought it was rather interesting - and some of the keywords were drug related. It's kind of a legal, social issue kind of thread, not actually debating the pros and cons or promoting the use.

    However the stumble isn't turning up in my history so I'm left wondering if the fact that the word drugs was in the title might have meant it's filtered.

    Anyone know if it gets manually moderated or is it just gone?

    I am avid stumbleupon user but never noticed any such thing. SU staff review the page if someone reports it.

    Can you provide your SU page link?

    After one of my sites received too many stumbles it was banned. Even though some stories remained on stumble, all new ones were no longer visible. Very strange.

    Did you stumbled many different pages from single domain? If that is the case, new pages from that domain will not appear in your list when stumbled. In other words you can not vote for too many pages of same website.

    Yea, that too. Even though websites like YouTube get away with it.

    This is me: http://itamer.stumbleupon.com/

    and this is the stumble: Landlords, Tenants, Police and Drugs
    That may be the problem... I've tried to mix it up, but maybe not enough :)


    edit: found it: http://www.stumbleupon.com/url/www.propertytalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12416

    Somehow I submitted it to pornography and not real estate. Go figure!

    I have stumbled the link and added it in category law ( as that thread was related to legal advice)

    But now check the stumbleupon page of that link here

    It shows the page is not discovered by me and the category is pornography.
    There is something wrong with SU.

    One thing I know. If you use the report option in the right side bar of the SU page link (this), the submitter page will be moved to correct category in couple of hours.
