Community Guidelines

We want Digg to be a cool place to discover, share and discuss awesome content from across the web. We've penned a few thoughts and guidelines around making this a place you can call home. Note that your participation in Digg is always subject to our Terms of Use.

• Participate and leave your mark.
  Submit unique stories, Digg what you like, leave comments, and have fun.
• Be cool.
  Treat each other with respect. Don't be that guy.
• Don't spam.
  You're not fooling anyone. Digg is not for commercial use. Please don't use Digg for selling or promoting products and services. If we discover that you're involved in Digging for profit we reserve the right to terminate your account permanently.
• Don't be sexist, racist or a hater.
  Would you talk to your mom or neighbor like that? Digg defines hate speech as speech intended to degrade, intimidate, or incite violence or prejudicial action against members of a protected group. For instance, racist or sexist content may be considered hate speech. There's a fine line here; for example, it's generally OK to criticize an entire nation but not OK to make criticizing generalizations about people of a particular nationality. Don't drink the haterade.
• Don't engage with the flotsam and jetsam.
  If someone is being a jerk in the comments, give the comment a thumbs down and report them to us.
