Another reason Digg might be having problems? Seems the “Diggers” don’t have as much authority on Digg as one might think. Update: http://forthardknox.com/?p=236

Very, very interesting. This story was first dugg 58 minutes ago. It’s already buried.

I don’t think its a bury brigade – its just an algorithm.

One of my sites was banned about May last year and was let back in to Digg the other week. Since then every single story submitted from the site is buried no matter how many diggs it gets.

My theory is that instead of banning sites digg just automatically buries all submissions. Kind of like the Google +30 penalty.

I think JohnChow.com seems to be experiencing this as well.
