Digg, I’m Sorry

Experimenting is my thing.

At the age of 5, I always ask my dad for old scraps, electronics and stuff. I open it, but never put a single screw back again.

At the age of 8, I open up my toys and connected it with anything I can find in our house. I remember the days when my mom would yell at me “Clean up your mess!”

Experimenting is really my thing…

And I did it again – this time, with Digg. The result?

“My Blog Got Banned On Digg”

Not only my blog but also my account, and that’s a pretty big loss for me. I love Digg and I visit it almost everyday to hang out and read interesting stories.

I love reading those everyday Apple news, Ron Paul hoorays and especially looking at the Digg’s image section. I can’t bookmark them now.

Today, I’m gonna use my mom’s advice. I’ll clean up this mess, so sorry Digg community. I will stop buying votes now. I was just too excited before when one of my stories got dugg.

I miss my Digg account, I miss the excitement, I miss Digg.

*Bow*

P.S. No, Really, I’m serious. Sorry Digg.

Next time, when you’re gaming digg, set up a new domain and redirect it to this blog so CarloCab.com won’t be banned…

So what exactly did you do to get banned? Please tell us so we don’t make the same mistake. Thanks!

Sorry to hear that you got banned on Digg.

They banned me after about site Diggs and wouldn’t even reply to my emails to tell me why.

If you find a way to get them to respond to you please let me know.

Man, that must really suck. I really wouldn’t care if my account got banned, but a whole site getting banned? I don’t even want to imagine.

But who cares about Digg anyway. There are always other social media sites (hundreds in fact) that if used right, can bring in ALMOST as much traffic as getting in the front page of Digg.

Hi,

that sounded like me pulling things apart, when i was like 3 or 4 i so called reverse engineered my fathers good camera, his good watch, and my mothers old camera. And the same thing about the mess my mother was always going on about my room.

It just goes to show you the power in these social bookmarking sites, and you have done well with your blog.

Keep up the good work.

From the post “…I will stop buying votes now…”

Carl

January 26, 2008

That’s what I hope too.

I sent them an email to this post but still don’t have reply as of now.

If I get unbanned, that would be a big score!

Carl

January 26, 2008

Sure, I will let everyone know…

“If” I get unbanned.

*Wiping eyes* No, no, no! I wasn’t crying really.

You won’t.

I got banned – and I didn’t buy votes. I got banned for no reason whatsoever. I sent them an email – no explanation.

Oww that’s really sad… so I guess everybody should learn from it so the next time “if” we’ll have the chance then we already know what to do. – got banned too :(

Would you mind to name me a few? Having banned from Digg when you are constantly featured there can be a huge blow. I have heard of the Digg effect but nothing else ever got near it. ;-) Digg front page is still the best spike creator.

That is sad. Why haven’t you tried posting your article to pinoy social site http://www.ebenta.com (beta) :). Hope digg will listen to your sincere apology. Let us know when your account back. I will read that post. I haven’t read the reason why yet.

By the way, I also can’t login to Digg… Does it mean that I also got banned. I can’t vote for different blog articles also.. That is really strange as I don’t see any reason..
