This seems pretty strict. Guess you have to be accountable not just for the page you submit to but the domain itself.
More whining that is not remotely Sphinn worthy. So, you were banned. Boo Hoo, Boo Hoo!
Sorry, but I understand Diggs decision on that one completely.
digg is a corporation and has to watch the bottom line, its purpose is to make money. All decisions must ultimately bend to this goal. Although most of the recent bans are clearly against the TOS, Zaibatsus ban is clearly in a murky area.Some say digg must not play favourites, bollocks. Of course it must, you put more into the site you should get more respect, full stop. Collaberative social sites MUST reward concientious, and hard working contributors. Its kind of weird when you think of the people who dont get banned who are basing their business model around gaming the site, *cough*
Zaibatsu isnt the only one. Others at the top look as if theyre gaming the system as well. Lots of interesting data here: http://humanorbot.comI had my account banned, started a new acount and it was recently banned. Their position is that once youre banned, you cant start another account, even if you do nothing wrong with it. There is no forgiveness. The sad thing is that the new account didnt do anything against the TOS, it was just associated with someone they didnt like.
I have to do this. We cannot plug this up with "I got banned" posts. Its just as annoying as the threads on forums called "I just got an infraction and dont think its fair".
