I understand constructive critisism.
I read one post from this guy and had to find out what his deal was. After checking out his profile, I found he obviously is from New Orleans and has only been digging for a couple months. He has submitted tons of junk, mostly things about New Orleans, some spam garbage....but then there is this stuff:

For someone who uses digg so frequently, why does he act like such a dick?

Digg is a social networking site that is community based. Every community has its assholes. If you look through the 14 pages worth of stories he has submitted to digg, the highest any of them has ever gotten is 11 ... hardly "front page material". If you look at his comments, they don't even get much attention either.
Plenty of other things to see on Digg without worrying about this guy.

The next big thing for digg. Giving the power to the people for getting rid of asshats.
Create a user based kick system that boots dicks.
all in fun :rolleyes:

There are a lot of dick-wads on Digg, you just have to ignore them and digg them down.

I agree. Digg.com is a reflection of society in general.

That is the most frightening statement I have read in a few months! I wouldn't say Digg is a reflection of society as a whole. I'd say that it captures the imagination of the geek community and we'd love to think that Digg=life but I just can't see that. The community is kinda... infested (maybe to strong a word) with some elements that are simply there to **** with people and be immature little dildo cum scrapings.
I'd say that Digg is a reflection of a segment of geekery but not society. That's far to broad a statement.

Some of the most stupid ignorant shit is posted in the comments, that's why try not to comment as much as possible.

But sometimes there's really enlightening info in the comments. You gotta sift through the shit to find the good.

Or you could just sort by most diggs :D
Some of them are very funny at times.

The reason I don't sort by most is that sometimes comments don't make sense without knowing what was said before it. That, and sometimes I like to read the comments that were dugg down a lot. So far my record is a comment dugg down 498 times. :)
