We’re loved again
October 1st, 2008
About a year ago I was told by visitors that they could not submit any of the pages on Chicken Crap to Digg. I contacted Digg about that claim and was told that one of the submissions had been buried so many times that the system marked the site banned from being submitted again. I found this a little weird that a single poor posting by a third party would merit the disqualification of an entire site, especially a site that had been Dugg up many times before and had made it to the front page multiple times. I also found it disconcerting that content that had been uploaded here and formatted by me to specific sizes had found its way onto the front page of the social news site under a different domain, on a different site. I’m not claiming that all of the content on the site is original (we do have tons of originally uploaded images submitted by users and myself) and that it cannot be published on a different site, but what I was upset at the fact that Digg didn’t think it necessary to allow CC the opportunity to even be sumitted to be Dugg up.
Well anyway, today I got an email from Digg support that the site had been unbanned! So all that’s been left behind and if there are any Digg users out there that want to submit a page, go ahead and do it (and let me know if it truly does work)!
