- IvanB, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I've never heard of the IP banning stuff. Can we get a screenshot?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2A screenshot has been added to the article. it's not an impressive error page, I think they created it in a rush.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3He got banned and can't reply.
- Zagger, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Dude, you're an obvious spammer! you just created this account to make positive comments on this story and submit another lame story about how digg this and digg that. If you dont like digg just stop spamming it.
- Zagger, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Good riddance, spammers like you must be removed not only from digg but from all of the internet. It's obvious you just gamed the system with this story too:
Look at these accounts:
http://digg.com/users/250quid (this one even commented on the story negatively )
http://digg.com/users/kbox
http://digg.com/users/GoogTube
It's obvious they're your accounts.
marked as spam. Good job digg! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2My account got banned the other day (though my IP wasn't). I wasn't doing anything out of the ordinary.
The profile for it is gone but submissions/comments/diggs remain .. - IvanB, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Maybe you were mass blind digging.
- borninda818, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Kevin...Do you have something to say about this?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2The stupid thing is this is all done automatically. You get flagged and banned, Simply because of the digg anti-cheat algorithm....
Who needs dumb people when we can just use automated scripts written by dumb people?
this is going to kill digg. - pongpong, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Happened to my friend too. So does this mean if you are an "eager" digger you will be banned too. What's the sense of this site then? DUH.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0The system flags them as spam even though they could be just friends digging each other stories. That's the point. If your friend posts a story and you digg it does that mean you are spammers and that the accounts all belong to the same person? of course not.
