    Think it is against Digg TOS and think it can get you banned from Digg.

    I think DP allow there members to buy diggs ..
    DP is not taking any responsibility if your account get banned or story removed ..

    I mean you are doing at your own risk :D
    Lots of people buying and doing digg for others (Even free)

    Isn't it a wrong cat. for this thread ? this should be in general or other section Maybe :|

    Buying Diggs is not against DP TOS. It's as plain as that.

    People may be warning you against risky business - and the ban would definitely be at Digg.

    just wondering, what the difference would be, between buying digg clicks or adsense clicks?

    neither are ethincal, both are against the TOS of the respective sites, so does that mean DP supports it? i bet not with adsense, so why digg?

    both have financial benefit in the end to the buyer.

    i think DP has to draw a line in what is acceptable and whats not.

    Digg clicks are a step removed from fraud, although they certainly misrepresent the popularity of a story and therefore drive traffic and the potential to earn income.

    I don't have an answer though...

    Buying Diggs is against Digg TOS and DP tells you not to buy any Diggs because your account, along with whoever Dugg, will get banned.

    As for your question. No, buying Diggs is not against DP TOS.

    Well DP is not responsible for this and we have no TOS agianst Digg selling. It against of Digg TOS and account should be banned if you broke TOS.

    Right. Its is against th TOS of Digg. As of now there is no mention in the TOS at DP regarding this.
    But it is better not to post the digg links in the thread...

    that is excatly the point is, there is delicious, there is furl there are about a dozzen such site!
    and i think buying digg is absolutely fine, if digg can't protect themselves they should close and shut it down. with the nofollow tags, those links are a complete waste of time:rolleyes:

    Ok heres the 411..

    If you buy diggs here. DP will not kick you in the balls.

    but if Digg.com finds out you bought diggs , it will hang you by dem balls for sure :) (da-doing-doing-doing)

    happy?
