Digg banned my account. What should I do?

    Digg was very instrumental for me to rise up to page rankings in google. Then all of a sudden, it banned my account. It offered no particular reason at all and just gave me a link to their TOS.

    When I tried creating a new user at Digg, it also bans it days later.

    Need your advise on what to do now. How can I increase my page rank without Digg? Will I ever be able to access digg.com again?

    You probably did something against their TOS. Find out what it is and see if they can give you a second chance. I'm a Digg member but I haven't made anything out of it. I have been too busy to go to their site but my sites do well in search result pages. So, you can make it without Digg.

    If you digg your own posts too often, it also results in a ban ! :eek:

    That's correct Digg may identify the posting which is done by your accounts. If it finds similar diggs through different accounts than they may banned your user name as well as your IP too.

    I create new accounts whenever I get banned. Is that wrong? how can I get un-banned? Is there any way I can access digg again?

    My ip was banned ages ago for taking part in a digg exchange thread here at dp, a while ago i created a fresh account, same ip i think, they must of unbanned it, but i dont bother using the account anyway so it makes no difference.

    I wouldn't look to one site to rasise pr.

    Plus ive just realised you are posting in the wrong section about this, and so am i. ;)

    I'm glad they keep banning fake accounts that ping their own lame sites over and over. More power to them, I hope digg gets all of you cheaters so fair sites get due recognition.

    Search on this forum for "social bookmark list" sites, there is a lot of threads and web sites of that kind.

    I am also a regular member in digg. And I digg only those topic that I find interesting, I think you are detected to be spamming and I won't argue with that with DIGG, coz I think you are a natural born spammer. Just look at your POST here. It contains unrelated links

    Mod will deal with you later I guess so Goodluck.....

    Have a nice day.
