I emailed digg before they banned 86 diggers. I told digg I no longer wanted to be a member of digg.com. I was not banned I left.

Um...yeah...actually it was a Mutual thing? We just needed some space, so we decided to "take a break."

I needed to post on this message board for one reason to clear my reputation. So there can be a record that I was not cheating on digg. Don't worry not coming back to revision3, to reply to another one of these posts. Since I find some of you people rude and obnoxious.

1. Rev3 != Digg.
2. Noone cares.
3. Wouldn't a cut/paste have been better than three screen shots?

It's amazing that there are still some people around who still haven't figured that out...

Clear your reputation, or confirm it? As someone wit ha reputation who for coming to this forum almost exclusively to whore-out various Digg submissions, I'm not sure what reputation you want to protect. And, attacking this forum while expecting sympathy is pretty hard to understand.

You should have censored your IP. What if "Crash Override","Acid Burn", "Cereal Killer", or "Lord Nikon" browse these forums?

digg sucks anyway anymore.
It's turn into a spam site and Kevin Rose political fan club.
You don't want to post anymore then fine just leave but don't be a whiney baby and ask for someone to delete your account.

well he's close - kinda. Diggnation is a show that is hosted by the Kevin and its about Digg. But its two different entities. Maybe he thinks diggnation accounts = digg account? Either way this was probably the stupidest post i've seen in a while. I guess he wants to be removed?

I don't think people are trying to be rude so much as they are baffled and maybe irritated at the fact that you made a post like this. To announce your quitting Digg and Rev3 like your some sort of god is a little weird. They flamed you because it was a ignorant thing to post, like rev3 is done some thing negative to you. Most people are on here because they like Rev3 so therefore your post wasn't going to be welcome with open arms or did you expect people to beg you to stay? I say if your gonna leave just leave, don't announce it just email rev3 and tell them to delete your account. You don't owe us an explanation.

You've got a problem with Digg banning people who use scripts to game the system? Bye-bye!

Agreed. the majority of digg users are tired of the script-punks gaming digg. The fact that you care so much just means either you were hitting up scripts too, or were having your submissions blind-dugg by the majority of people on that list. that blog mentions wasted talent, but that's a complete joke, considering it was all scripts. there's no talent involved in downloading a script and running greasemonkey. It's been a couple of days since this happened, and the quality of the submissions I see [I have a lot of categories blocked thank God] hasn't really changed, for better or worse. Which means all of you "power-users" have little effect on Digg in the long term.
I'm glad to see you, and everyone on that list, leave.

Haha. Zoomtechtv used to digg spam here all the time back in the day. He had a real hatred for Nasonex, or Airborne or some sort of nasal medicine. I forget which. Something about how it killed his uncle or something. Used to spam his anti-nasal relief digg submissions all over these forums.
I guess he never got dugg enough, so now he wants to quit and go home.
Fine with me!
(use of hyperbole intentional to irritate zoomtechtv, because I know he's actually still reading these messages)

I'm sure I'm not the only here who knows that he has already created another account under another alias and is browsing this thread at this very instant. Watching to see if anyone cares. Guess what?

Noone != No one. Very true, but as far as the fairly common error regarding no one vs noone (which it should be if you follow the grammatical patterns of someone, anyone, and everyone) ...
2. Noone cares.

Dude, no one gives a damn about your "reputation"

This guy is a troll, right?
Seriously, I am sure everyone at digg don't even have any idea who you are or that you ever existed or even care that you left for whatever reason, banned or not. You are not as important and well-known as you think you are. Unless you're MrBabyMan...

Dude, no one gives a damn about your "reputation" ...cuz we all know that once you get a bad 'on-line' reputation, your life is basically over...
some will contend that being chased out of Digg for being a script-kiddie
is akin to being in a low-production YouPorn video with Sarah Palin.
Trust me, no one will vote for you either...

I did, however, find the thread and some of the posts therein
highly entertaining. Beats watching reruns or the 'Brooks movie 'SpaceBalls'
on G4 for the 1.43x10^24th time.

Bwahaha. The amazing accuracy of this is scary.
I thought Zoom was a cool fellow on the forums. Adieu.
