Digg this

[jdbnsn]

Okay, TBCS was recently blocked from Digging our threads because we have been "digging third party content". Even though the threads are posted on many boards, the content we digg is directly from our own site so my guess is this is some sort of misunderstanding. I've sent two emails to them which they have not returned, so I have a back up plan.
Perhaps they will be more likely to respond if the question is presented a little louder? If you are willing, send an email a few times per day to them until we get an answer (I don't want any angry emails, just a simple answer to the question "was this in error, or did we violate Digg policy?"). I've read through the TOS carefully and can see no reason why it would be. So perhaps if we carpet bomb them with inquiries they will listen and answer the question. It's not clear on their site which email address to send it to so I've sent them to different ones each time. Feel free to join me in this resolution to their block. Thanks modders.

Sucks, i so wanted to Digg this thread :(

[Ichbin]

Thats awkward. Everything is posted and created on our website. Of course some people post on other websites, but we're diggin ours.

I think its a mistake. It has to be.

[SgtM]

I E-mailed them. I also searched for everything that we've already dugg... it's not there.

[TheGreatSatan]

What's their email? I'm at work and Digg is blocked.

[SgtM]

Dunno.. filled out an online form.

[Drum Thumper]

abuse@digg.com is the addy I've been using.

This also reminds me, time to send out another email.

And regarding being tagged an intermediary site, I have a sneaking suspicion that other digg users reported our links, and the site was automatically blocked.

[Ichbin]

Still thats really stupid. Itd be like Metacafe getting blocked because some stuff is on Youtube.

[Quakken]

Huh. I thought you could dig anything, don't really understand why this would be "third party content". whatever.

[Crimson Sky]

Uhg. I would so like to rant at them. Dey got some stones to mess wit me.

Gentlemen (and ladies too); welcome to Fight Club!
:bash::fight:

Hmm. Here's a random thought Crimson: Start a blogspot, rant and we'll all digg it!

I think that's a REALLY good idea!

No digg these sites instead. Podmodding.com (http://www.podmodding.com/) and TheModdersWorkshop.com (http://www.themoddersworkshop.com/)

Why dig those you ask, click them to find out ;)

Oh HELL YEAH!

LOL, that's great!

Edit: One minor problem: both sites redirect once you go to the forums.

Go to the link you want and replace thebestcasescenario with podmodding ;)

[noopypoop]

So why were thos sites there? are they old domains of TBCS?

[Ichbin]

owning multiple domain names is actually a search engine optimization thing.

Makes it so this site pops up more.

[simon275]

I was under the impression that they where old projects of pauls and he has the domains left over so he just points them at TBCS.

[XcOM]

eitherway i have e-maioled dig, no responce yet

[Cannibal23]

i tried digging my own mod with the podmodding.com domain and it came up as 3rd party.
