NO, he looks cool like that I've just hidden the digg section in my forum, only the few trusted ones will be able to access
if shawn provide us... thats types of section...... ahhh then we make a 600 freiends digg digging force........ and yooooo we are on first page.... wooohoooo.... 8-> J/k between i am jump on your forums.
They ban users but this is too dramatic: This URL has been reported by users and cannot be submitted at this time.
I've been so busy working on my sites and visiting sites like this one to learn the trade; I have had no time for these social websites. Until several folks posted on another forum how well they did using these folks, I would have never taken the time to visit the site much less submit anything. I find it quite interesting that they are so thoroughly slapping the hand that feeds them. It's a shame really as it is a great concept.
I think the problems over at Digg have been coming for awhile now. A quick search on Google for Digg Sucks gives you 2,130,000 results. Just a quick breeze through some of the results shows that people think that Digg is being controlled by a minority of its users. I don't know where people got the information from but here is a couple of excepts. 66% of all stories posted on digg that make it to the homepage and pushed there by the same 60 people. Normally, editorial control not being in the hands of users isn’t a big deal. However, Digg’s supposed best feature is social collaboration. Horsecrap. It’s also its downfall. 60% of Digg’s front page is the top 0.03% users. And now that I have wasted my time talking about Digg I will get to work and do something useful.
As soon as they spot i I'd imagine, and ban the account also. It looks like a good way of losting a couple of hundred $ in light of recent events.
Ya know, a SEO oriented digg where it was perfectly legit to pimp your own sites and news stories would be cool. Rule #1: Spam is good. Rule #2: All non-porn stories are acceptable. Rule #3: Admins have and will exercise the right to take down stories that are inappropriate Rule #4: Vote early and vote often!
