digg.org — Remember that bug in Digg? Where you click "Digg it" really fast and it gives it a couple more diggs from you? Well, you can do the same thing with the new comment feature of digging a comment up or down. Thought this would get them to fix it faster. (Link is to Digg.org since it doesn't let you submit digg.com)

Yeah, not a real bug.Actually, can someone please explain to me what's with the captcha? I've posted dozens of comments in the last couple of weeks but I still have to enter it. When I first signed up the page said the captcha only appeared until I started contributing.

I can digg at most 3 times before it stops me. The solution is simple IMO. Just create a javascript delay of a couple of seconds before sending off the next request. Enough time for the server to update.

Indeed. As fifty people click it at the same time, they each think they have mega-digged a comment. Then they try it again on another comment, to make sure.Given that dozens of people are doing this at the same time, they all come to the same conclusion, that they've managed to find a bug.

I can give a max of 3 diggs using Firefox 1.5.01 but they get removed upon a hard refresh in firefox I am still limited in negative ratings...

"I just figured it would be more noticeable then reporting a bug"Exposing an exploit/bug to the public should be a last move, not a first.

Now reload the page and see that your "multiple diggs" were only counted once. Also, if you weren't such a lazy prick, you would have seen my suggestion mentioned about twelve times before you posted. Thanks for contributing to the stupidity of the Digg populace!

I don't need to read the previous comments to know that I am the first person to tell you that a page refresh will show that multiple diggs aren't actually recorded.
