I see a huge flaw in this. For example If I digg this article with the title “Cool new britney spears pics” or something that looks like spam, a lot of domains can get banned and won’t even know it.
The whole “unbanned from Digg” thing feels like they’ve got you guys on some form of house arrest with GPS monitoring… I think John Chow tried making some posts but didn’t fare so well. Are you by chance feeling like “you’re being watched?”.
There’s been a lot of discussion of the “Digg bury brigades” as of late anyway…
I personally think Digg would be a lot better off and lose a lot of the bad publicity if they would just do away with the Bury concept.
Heck, it’s like going to the polls and un-voting someone. Yeah, I know they’ve had it a long time, but it’s just weird IMHO.
I’m just trying to understand, what kind of person spends their day burying stories? If you like it, vote for it. Email your friends and tell them it’s great and vote for it. But to spend your time burying stuff? Just seems like a real glass-mostly-empty perspective. To each his own of course, that’s just a foreign concept to me and I personally don’t get it. Anyway, enough ranting. Blessings all around.

You do know that posts from “unbanned” sites are easily buried, a single bury or two is sufficient.

banned from digg? Is that a sign of good posts, popularity, or something else?
Anyway, I am very glad you were able to get un-banned.
