    Wow I'm relatively new to digital point forum but that's kind of funny that digital point is #4 on the list of banned websites. Shouldn't they be banning sex blogs or terrorist blogs or something? ;) But I admit, it does make me feel kind of risque to be on a banned site!

    I am really surprised at the behavior of DP members, nobody verified that whether DP banned from Digg or not??? Does anybody?? I think DP is not banned so here is the proof:
    http://digg.com/tech_news/10_Famous_Sites_Banned_By_Digg_2

    I found more than 800 entries for DP at Digg. Anyways so that's good news for you people DP now acceptable at DIGG. So you may Digg your thread there. :D

    Thanks

    just read the post on wallstats for being banned, i really feel very sad to hear his story. He is selling his pure original works which he done by his unique and great works. Its really shame on digg.com for banning such a nice website.
    I really hate digg.com from now .

    That's ridiculous. Why ban sites that provide useful information and help people?

    so we all are in good company of banned sites
    my site too got banned about a year ago ...
    nevertheless my traffic goes UP - a one man site since 1997
    last year some 7769389 uv from more than 223 countries = W/O digg
    but even after ban - all existing entries still there on digg and still can be digged

    BTW
    digitalpoint.com is NOT banned from digg or got UNbanned
    I just submitted a page to digg
    http://digg.com/linux_unix/How_to_estimate_the_size_of_a_Social_Network
    and got accepted

    So what do they do? Just not let you through, or do they outright say the site is banned?
