Spammers widely abuse all social media sites; even small ones. I like the Digg anti-spam system the most.

You’re so right about everything you say. I posted a story last month and it made it to the Digg homepage with over 260 votes and a ton of fantastic comments and literally within minutes (if not seconds) it was buried off the site. In viewing the Digg Trends site the traffic graph clearly shows it vanish off Digg at it’s peak… there was no downward trend on the graph.. it peaked and then gone. Yet, a similar story almost identical to mine got to stay and it was by a top Digger.

Doc,

I had to mildly edit the cuss words out of your comment, I get a lot of kids coming to this blog.

Digg is becoming a joke. Even the user community can not run stories that they want to run, then what’s the point.

That ****head Rose and others IP banned me from their site, for digging down every damn Apple article by the apple ****.

It’s a joke of a site, and the bastards got really really lucky. XXXXheads they are though.
