    Hello all. I just got banned from digg and I dont know why. Does anybody know any reason why someone could get banned from digg. I'm new to digg and Have only posted one article on indiana history. And Have worked on creating friends.

    Yup, DIGG tends to catch these people when they do this. It's okay, you can sign up for another Digg account secretly ;)

    just make sure when you do sign up for a new account just don't over do it. Make sure you have the same amount of votes in digg and those you exchange. It's like hiding money from the IRS ;)

    I think I was already banned from digg for about a hundred times and a new account does the trick. :D

    I got banned too, but I'd only done 3 or 4 Digg exchanges in total. There must be Digg spies lurking around here. If you're a Digg spy you can stick Digg up your treacherous arse!
