Digg out all the quality fun!

Apparently a few votes for a site being spam, whether it is or not, will end your stay on Digg.. We pleaded and asked to be unbanned but received a pretty interesting response.

“When submitted stories are consistently reported as spam and users
complain via our feedback email about submission spam, we ban the
domain. The domain will not be unbanned. The domain would consistently
get reported as spam otherwise.

-The Digg Support Team.”

Well we certainly don’t find our content to be spam but apparently it doesnt matter what we think.

Oh well.. Our fans didn’t take it nearly as good as we did.

Jaleo,

Of course not. Of all the traffic we get on this site each month, Digg is but a tiny segment. Less than 3%. Also we just love what we do way tooooo much.

So don’t worry.. We will keep the good stuff a coming.

That sucks,

I have you listed as a “Friend” of mine in digg and have dugg quite a few of your posts for two reasons. 1) This is the funniest website on the internet. 2) It’s more interesting than 99% of the crap I see on digg and deserved a digg.

Oh well. I guess I’ll just have to keep giving you the “Thumbs up” in srumbleupon and post more links to you folks on my blog.
