    • 1389, on 10/12/2007, -11/+11@tredglx, welcome to Digg! I've added you as a friend.

      Here's one thing to keep in mind. Even though, as you mentioned, this particular story eventually got buried, it still got a lot of Diggs. I've been watching Digg for some months now. Several months ago, good conservative stories practically NEVER made it to the front page. A month ago, a few good conservative and/or anti-jihadist stories made it to the front page every week. Now, we're getting several of them promoted to the front page EVERY DAY, along with many others that get a large number of Diggs even though they aren't being promoted. This means that we are winning.

      It has taken a lot of persistent effort on the part of all of us who oppose this de facto censorship on Digg, but we ARE making progress. Remember that, through Digg, we can reach a lot of people who otherwise would never look at conservative blogs and news sites, and most likely would never even know that these stories exist! Keep up the good work!
    • sparks2, on 10/12/2007, -6/+7If the post above me is not proof of digg gaming then I don't know what is lol.
  • Gerbil, on 10/12/2007, -9/+17...because they are diggworthy.
  • DarylHerbert, on 10/12/2007, -22/+20This one probably should be buried.

    Why would you need a new Digg thread to talk about an existing Digg thread?

    You're not supposed to hit "Digg This" on EVERY single post at LGF, just ones that would have broad appeal.
    • Gerbil, on 10/12/2007, -13/+20...just ones that would have broad appeal.
      Aren't they all?
    • nuyorican, on 10/12/2007, -10/+29ALL LGF posts have broad appeal. The exceptions seem to be:

      Terrorists, terrorist-sympathizers, anti-Semites, crypto-communists, Trotskyites, Marxists, Leninists, Stalinists, national socialists, socialist nationalists, greenie nutters, neo-fascists, old fashioned type fascists, Pol-Pottist-year-zero-flat-earthers, Moonbats, and the French.

      Have I forgotten anyone??
    • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -9/+8You forgot "DIggbats!" HAHAHAHAHAHA!!
    • Franklancer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5"You're not supposed to hit "Digg This" on EVERY single post at LGF, just ones that would have broad appeal."

      Right, and only the ones that don't threaten our leftist viewpoint of the world, make us think, or in other words, you have no free speech unless you agree with us..

  • canewediggit, on 10/12/2007, -27/+13so let me get this straight- after numerous attempts and articles about the unfairness of people burying lgf's articles, lgf is now _encouraging_ it's readers to go and flag a blog that doesn't like lgf? hmmmm. pot, i'd like to introduce you to my friend, kettle.
    • john1schn, on 10/12/2007, -5/+15Not exactly what Charles said. Here, let me help you out a bit:

      "I urge all LGF readers to click through to Digg, then click the title of the post to get to the stalker’s site, and if you think it’s appropriate, scroll up to the top of the site (the link above puts you slightly down the page) and use the Blogspot tool at the top of the screen labeled “Flag Blog” to notify Google (who own Blogspot) that it’s an offensive site."

      Note that he said "...and if you think it's appropriate,..." Dude, that means "think for yourself."

    • canewediggit, on 10/12/2007, -16/+7fair enough, those were his words, but my point is still the same. when digg users "think for themselves" and deem it "appropriate" to bury lgf, they do so, and lgf complains. and now lgf is requesting the same kind of activity out of it's users. there's no difference here, but now we've cleaned up the semantics.
    • john1schn, on 10/12/2007, -5/+18the difference is that everything is being buried just because it's from LGF. LGFWatch has produced truly offensive stuff. Also, nowhere has Charles stated (to my knowledge) that the site should be taken down or censored, merely that it be flagged for inappropriate content. Not exactly the same, as you should know by now.
    • Taqiyyotomist, on 10/12/2007, -10/+5The blog is libelous. The blog is slanderous. Libel and slander on Blogger should be flagged.
    • canewediggit, on 10/12/2007, -13/+4the end result of enough people flagging a blog for inappropriate content is that it is taken down and censored, so that is exactly what he is trying to accomplish.

      if people are burying things b/c they're from lgf, they are doing so by thinking for themselves and taking what they feel to be appropriate action, which you and i have already agreed are ok. they have a right to express their opinion, just as lgf has a right to theirs, and lgfwatch has a right to theirs.

      why do you feel it's not ok for people to bury lgf or write about lgf but it is ok for lgf to do so about others?
    • DarylHerbert, on 10/12/2007, -6/+11"lgf is now _encouraging_ it's readers to go and flag a blog that doesn't like lgf?"

      Liar. Lots of blogs don't like LGF, Johnson didn't say to abuse flag them all.

      That particular blog is encouraging people to flag LGF material as garbage, so Johnson is encouraging people to flag that blog as garbage.

      Fight fire with fire. Fight speech with more speech. Fight fists with fists Fight phony abuse flagging with more abuse flagging.

      You don't like that, which means you have a double standard: liberals are allowed to dish it out, but don't have to take it.
  • DeLeon, on 10/12/2007, -5/+8LGF 69, Stalkers 47. Diggbats? I don't think so!

    "...after numerous attempts and articles about the unfairness of people burying lgf's articles, lgf is now _encouraging_ it's readers to go and flag a blog that doesn't like lgf..." -- canewediggit

    "No".

    Rather, it seems like wishful thinking on YOUR part that the regular lizaroids would stoop to the sort of practicies we've been noticing of the so-called 'liberals' of late.

    In other words....

    ....you, sirrah, are 'projecting'.

      re: the little blue link at the bottom right

      it's called "reply" for a reason. use it.

      furthermore- it's hardly wishful thinking for 2 reasons;
      1. i don't give a ***** about that blog
      2. lgf expressly tells it's readers to go and flag it. i'm not making this up, it's right there in the post. facts are facts.

  • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -24/+7Hey LGF followers! I dugg this story for you because I'm starting to feel sorry for you never making it to the front page, but I can only digg it once, and I doubt it will matter, because NOBODY cares what LGF has to say but you. LGF stories get buried because they are dumb, sorry, the truth hurts.
    • Karmafish, on 10/12/2007, -20/+4LGFers are worse than dumb. They are extremist Islamophobes of the worst sort.

      They peddle in hate even as they accuse Islam of being a religion of hate.

    P.S. I'll reply in the manner I deem appropo, if you don't mind. And, even if you do mind, I really don't care.

      RE: Additionally...About 'Annoying'

      I seem to recall a report over at LGF about someone being 'kicked/banned/killed' for being 'annoying'.

      Not for being 'obnoxious' or 'foul-mouthed' or 'abusive'. Just for being 'annoying'.

      So tell me....

      ....if you had the ability to kill people on the street for being 'annoying', what do you think would happen? In the REAL world, that is.

      If they'll kill you in the blogosphere, they'll kill you in reality....in due time. Because they can't stand you either place. They just don't have the 'authority' in REALITY, for the moment.

      Regards,

      Chuck(le)

  • Spinoneone, on 10/12/2007, -6/+21Well, obviously the moonbats are getting hurt by LGF. Otherwise, they wouldn't bother.
    • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -14/+4yes, all the belligerence coming from LGF is causing me to lose sleep.
  • BBEV, on 10/12/2007, -4/+14To all the Democrats “socialists” out there reading this remember “Stupid is as stupid does” keep giving in under the guise of political correctness and soon you will have nothing to give.
    • jdawg2006, on 10/12/2007, -4/+11All these libs are doing is proving what we conservatives have said about them all along - they are nothing but communists who would stifle any discussion that doesn't agree with them. That's what makes them typical. And despicable.
  • LGFAlbatross, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8Well stupid is as stupid does diggers..... like it or not you have just received a right wing infusion of little green reptiles.
    This lizardess prefers to know what is going on in the world no matter how ugly it is. I am not afraid to look at hate. I am afraid for those who can't because they are the wimps that will jeopardise all I hold dear to save their skins.
  • Notsys1, on 10/12/2007, -6/+10Lizardess, the Left hates opposing ideas. Censorship is part of their ideology.

    All totalitarian regimes bury the news
    • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -10/+7you call LGF news? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
    • digger414, on 10/12/2007, -6/+590% of LGF's content is blockquoting mainstream sources with minimal snark by Mr. Johnson. So yes, I would consider it a news site.
    • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -9/+3HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Haven't you ever heard of political commentary?!
    • Revan01, on 10/12/2007, -6/+7Political Commentary by LGF: Kind of like The Daily Show, but designed for people with an IQ over 75
    • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -8/+5I bet the combined IQ of the people on LGF barely breaches the 75 mark! hahahahahahahahahahahahah!!!!
  • LowRentDiggs, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Looks like there are about 300 people (accounts) from LGF in on this assault. That seems to be the magic number for all of your stories.
    • 1389, on 10/12/2007, -7/+6This isn't an assault, this is what mature adults want to read. Sorry, but it's true.

      BTW, there may be 300 as of today, but there are more coming in every day. Some others are coming in because they saw conservative stories on Digg itself and decided to join.
    • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -9/+6Have you read the comments by these LGF wackos?! What's so mature about them?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
  • Bleepless, on 10/12/2007, -7/+8All "liberals" and "progressives" are totalitarian, hypocritical filth.
    • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -9/+4please.... You gotta tell me more, your comments are so insightful.
    • Banner, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6@bumblescrump

      If the ideas are stupid and worthless, wouldn't you be better served by allowing them to be promoted to the front page and seen by everyone? Then they'd all see these posts and say 'Oh man, that's stupid! I'm going to just ignore anything from LGF from now on!'

      The fact that you are burying LGF posts and comments tells me that you DO NOT think that the LGF posts are stupid, it tells me that you think they are smart and that you are AFRAID of other people seeing them, lest they stop believing as you believe.

      One does not stifle debate when one thinks they are right and that they are winning. One stifles debate when they know they are going to lose it. You're not contemptuous of LGF, you're AFRAID of it.
    • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1I did digg this, look at my comment above, look at my profile, I guess your theory just blew up in your face. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
  • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1@banner

    also, i will digg up your comment so you don't feel so dumb.
  • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2Why are my comments getting buried?! You can't handle the truth?! You're censoring me!!!!!!! hypocrites....
    • p0s3r, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6Your comments are getting buried because every single one of them has about 42 H's and 78 A's. Idiot.
    • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2Last I checked this was AMERICA not COMMUNIST CHINA and in America you can put as many H's and A's as you want in a post. Our soldiers are over seas right now to ensure that right!!!!!
    • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2Do you hate the troops or something?!
    • McJeff, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Your comments are getting buried, most likely, because they are stupid. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

      My comments aren't stupid, you're stupid!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
  • mjazzguitar, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Where's the rulebook that says "You're not supposed to hit "Digg This" on EVERY single post at LGF, just ones that would have broad appeal."? Suppose just I like it? How do you define "broad appeal?"
  • marinist, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5As seen on LGF:

    Oh yes, it's an orchestrated conspiracy--and not a reaction to the content of those posts by LGF.
    • booryokudanin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2If you can't handle the content, I suggest you run off to another site.

    Which is what, exactly? I've seen posts buried, labeled incorrect etc. etc. ad nauseum. Yet there's seems little need to provide proof of how they are incorrect or offensive. Maybe a little dialog would be in order rather than simply hitting they "bury it" button hmm?

    We could go over the list of Liberal left wing Demo people and it is obvious who the whack jobs are. All you have to do is look at Hollywierd. Or the left in the capitol or Bezerkely or Oly. Lefties have always been self hating kooks with self esteem problems that try to bolster there flagging ego's by belittling others that love and care for this great nation. But you will never get it because you suffer from it yourself. It has been pounded into your soft brain since your early years.
    • bumblescrump, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1I like that you make a bunch of broad generalizations and think that they are facts, what's obvious to me is that you don't know what the hell you're talking about!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
  • KafirusMaximus, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Bury should have a log (IE who buried this button), there should be a way to see who the 'anti-other than leftist speech' burymeisters really are. I bet you are going to see a consistent pattern of communist/liberal types hiding conservative views from the masses who, given a chance to think, just might catch on to reality. No degrees in rocket science are required to see whats going on here, they fear truth and will do any and everything to keep it under wraps.
  • Coronagold, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3What?! This thread ISN'T about Diggs' fanboy obsession with the almighty Wii?! How did THIS happen?
