Shout outs: Thanks to Andy Sorcini ( MrBabyMan), Reg Saddler ( zaibatsu) and Muhammad Saleem  ( msaleem) for providing the platform for this discussion. Thanks to David Cohn ( DigiDave) for spearheading a lot of the operation and setting up the blog for more people to get involved. Last but not least, I do want to thank Kevin Rose, Founder and Chief Architect of Digg.com ( kevinrose) and Jay Adelson, CEO of Digg.com ( jayadelson) for showing their virtual selves and voices and getting more involved with the Digg community. Although there are debates back and forth whether Rose and Adelson give a shit, I think it's obvious they care or they wouldn't have come to the chat. I'm not thrilled with some of the quoted statements Jay has made by downplaying the concerns of Digg user's that is being labeled as a "revolt." While I agree, it was not a wide scale revolt or even a revolt at all, a movement must start somewhere just as the HD-DVD Key crisis happened small first. I do understand that from Jay and Kevin's point of view, it has to be annoying to have users clamoring to make their voice heard. I think that it just shows what social media is all about and you have to take the good with the bad, including all of us whiney users. It would be wonderful if America's Democracy worked as well as Digg's interactive system. Anyway, I do have more faith in Digg and the future of it as Kevin and Jay's involvement seemed sincere and shows promise in my opinion. Ok, ok, I'll shut up, enjoy the transcript everyone.

SilentJay74 starts off the chat room transcript with a bang with his early prediction, "This is gonna be a wild night." You can listen to the live podcast that was being recorded on UStream.tv at the Drill Down's meeting place.


The Drill Down Podcast where you can hear the audio version that goes along with transcript.
RevoltNation, Part 1: The Issue at Hand / RevoltNation, Part 2: Jay and Kevin Respond

FAQ:

Why is this so ugly? I made it a static HTML page instead of putting it into Wordpress. I figured a lot of people would like to read the transcript and I don't want to be chastised for using Wordpress which is very taxing on the server when "The Digg Effect" hits.

Why isn't the transcript 100% complete? Ustream.tv was having a lot of issues with the video stream, audio stream and chat. I had two computers running in the room but still managed to get a frozen Window on both at some point in time. If you have missing parts of the chat, let me know and I'll add them.

Commentary / Interesting n' Funny spots in the transcript:

I honestly got bored with adding this crap, so it's not very comprehensive. If you're looking for Kevin and Jay's entrance into the chat just look for the yellow highlighted sections in the transcript. If the yellow highlighting hurts your eyes, makes you want to puke or made your mom slap you, great, enjoy all that. :P

8:42 webaddict : Seriously guys, who thinks it's possible to bury a Rose post? Show of hands / idiots?
8:49 toecracker|2324 : like i told Zaibatsu, i swalled 2 viagra buy mistake so I will be up for a week Tal
8:51 Linsys : I am speaking at Defcon this year
8:52 Defcon : I am Defcon bitch.
8:52 suxmonkey : reg is passed out drunk
8:54 ustreamer|86809 : hi everyone this is allen from centernetworks if anyone cares
8:54 suxmonkey : why did he go out of the way to say 'diet soda'?
8:54 webaddict : No, it's Miller Chill night man, not diet soda.
8:54 cGt2099 : BEERS ARE ON ME TONIGHT
9:04 Tamar enters the chat
9:12 Kevin Rose's story hits Frontpage of Digg
9:14 First_Digg announces Kevin's story hit front page with 86 diggs, 65 comments, 24 buries
http://digg.com/tech_news/Digg_New_Algorithm_Changes
9:38 Supultra releases link to Kevin Rose on TechTV announcing Digg.com
9:44 Digidave brings up Diggs old days when you couldn't tell who your Digg friends were but just had stars.
9:55 Zaibatsu brings up Auto-bury lists and the dozens of sites experiencing it
10:23 suxmonkey : already a lot of mainstream diggers who only watch the front page think this top submitter thing sux
10:24 suxmonkey : we have to frame this in such a way that it is clear thta this is hurting MOST diggers who will miss out on good content cuz suddenly that content needs way more votes to frontpage
10:34 - 10:35 Discussion about not digging for the entire weekend until Monday.
10:35 Bamafun talks about releasing a press release after Monday with no response and to get FOX and CNN to cover the revolt.
10:35 webaddict announces the story could get a live spot on Sirius Satellite Radio
10:36 Bamafun announces plans to release a Press Release on PR Wire
10:39 Digidave declares no digging until Monday

10:39 ustreamer|5712 : What's the big complaint here? So the algorithm isn't biased towards the old members anymore? Doesn't this make it more fair?
10:41 ustreamer|5712 : Are the ultra-old school super digg kids just sad cause the only area of influence of their life is being squished?
10:42 ustreamer|5712 : :-( poor geeks

10:43 katherinec : is kevin r ustream/5712?

10:43 ustreamer|5712 : there will be less stories about computer stuff
10:43 ustreamer|5712 : a whole lot less mac/apple/linux posts

10:46 SilentJay74 : Rose dupes on purpose
10:46 skitzzo : its about POWER
10:46 ustreamer|5712 : RAW POWER
10:46 ustreamer|96494 : ?
10:46 SilentJay74 : And he bans someone for an Idea he wanted
10:46 ustreamer|5712 : !

You will notice in the chat transcript that ustreamer|5712 never surfaces again to comment or chat in the room once Kevin Rose and Jay Adelson reveal themselves. I'm not going to come right out and claim that 5712 was either Kevin or Jay, but it does look interestingly suspicious, don't you think? But honestly, I could care less, I'm just glad they showed up and addressed some concerns. Sweet!

Kevin's first "authentic" post in the chat room

09:04 ustreamer|3 : im so confused
09:04 socialpyramid : ha ha
09:04 suxmonkey : not much .... chillin, being annoyed, you know me ;)
09:04 digidave : probably no more than 400
09:04 pmg2007 : jen was just saying that
09:04 ifnotme : Totally
09:04 webaddict : I'm had to get 151 diggs yesterday to get popular, my article went on to be the #5 article on Digg. It had a lot of interest shouldn't
have needed 151.
09:04 anon|3340 : WE'RE ON THE USTREAM FRONT PAGE
09:04 suxmonkey : 63 viewers right now, w00t
09:04 supernova17 : the top users can abuse the system
09:04 Oboy : he said lil bobby
09:04 tamar : oh yay
09:04 Oboy : lol
09:04 webaddict : damn, that was grammar tastic
09:04 supernova17 : that's all they care about
09:04 blinding_dawn : Nice
09:04 burento : bobby submits some adsense news site
09:04 ustreamer|3 : how is this guy talking without moving his mouth??????
09:04 burento : instead of a real site
09:04 tamar : digg my story!!!!!
09:04 pmg2007 : I think The Consultants could do it
09:05 suxmonkey : no digg MY story
09:05 moojj : hahaha ustreamer3 !!
09:05 ustreamer|3 : is he using his mind?
09:05 Linsys : yes we could
09:05 tamar : i asked first, <censored>
09:05 burento : 154
09:05 suxmonkey : :o
09:05 sepultura : he can do anything, he's MrBabyMnn :P
09:05 suxmonkey : naw i asked before you showed up ;)
09:05 cGt2099 : not to mention that Digg admins were not forthcoming in communication with users who had been banned
09:05 ifnotme : Reg, You forget what it is a like as a new digger. It is impossible for a new digger to make fp without friends
09:05 talsiach : 136 votes 22 coments -->22 hr no fp
09:05 burento : like Fark.com
09:05 tamar : all the stories on the upcoming pages have 100+ diggs :(
09:05 SilentJay74 : what up tamar
09:05 tamar : suppppppppppppppppppppp
09:05 TannerG : Ahoy!
09:05 ustreamer|3 : oh wait he opened his mouth, so he lets out all these words at once, faster than the speed of sound
09:05 blinding_dawn : I made front page without friends
09:05 toecracker|2324 : i am still a new digger
09:05 TannerG : How do you change your nick?
09:06 suxmonkey : the problem is, ifnotme, it's getting to the point of it being almost imipossible to make the front even WITH friends unless you beg for
diggs :(
09:06 First_Digg : with 10,000+ stories submited a day, its REALLY hard for random stories to hit the front page unless you are popular, submit from a
popular site, or build a social network
09:06 suxmonkey : if you're a regular submitter that is
09:06 tamar : type /nick <yournewnick>
09:06 blinding_dawn : http://www.digg.com/celebrity/Westboro_Baptist_planning_protest_Heath_Ledger_s_funeral
09:06 Linsys : No it isn't... when I started with Digg, I had 3 FP articles in less then 24 hours, it was just good contenet.. I didn't know about the
friends feature either
09:06 tamar : get out of here blinding!!!!
09:06 TannerG : thanks tamar
09:06 skitzzo : it's not that tough to become a fairly popular user
09:06 ifnotme : sux, you are right, I agree
09:06 First_Digg : exactly reg
09:06 Linsys : my posts received so much traffic my hosting company shut me down
09:06 TannerGodarzi : HEy
09:06 bamafun : http://digg.com/tech_news/New_Digg_algorithm_angers_the_social_masses
09:06 tamar : we were only joking about digging

09:07 TannerGodarzi : s
09:07 TannerGodarzi : Gah
09:07 tamar : who is 26971
09:07 blackolive : I fear the algorithim will censor non-centrist political views, most of my friends are liberals like me.
09:07 kevinrosesecretlylovescGt2099 : Hello
09:07 pmg2007 : do you think it is because they are trying to sell the site
09:07 socialpyramid : sup UKDave!
09:07 moojj : reg: what about the ducks? ;)
09:07 suxmonkey : i'm with you blackolive
09:07 skitzzo : Top 10 FTW!

09:07 blinding_dawn : That duck story will get bured quick
09:07 Blakovitch : hey!
09:07 sepultura : i have that emo pic up on the top 10 right now lol, that was stupid!
09:07 skitzzo : I don't think they do
09:07 ifnotme : Reg, I totally agree it took me several months to "figure it out". I am NOT critizing your content. It is just that new digger have no
chance REGARDLESS of the content
09:07 hotfuzzlovesgregdavies : hello
09:07 TannerG : Eg
09:08 burento : hahahahaha
09:08 TannerG : Finally, got my nick
09:08 burento : RON PAUL
09:08 diggman : tamar - i have a new tshirt for your schwag hoar site
09:08 pmg2007 : how do you get the censor part to work
09:08 suxmonkey : i agree ... we can't get away with frontpaging total <censored>, we don't need more of a bias. when i submit <censored> it doesn't come
close to the front. digg process in action.
09:08 sepultura : RON PAUL
09:08 sepultura : WOOOOT
09:08 moojj : ron paul FTL
09:08 supernova17 : tamar, stop posting cheap stuff on flickr
[09:08] * ustreamer|75376 waves
09:08 ifnotme : LOL
09:08 sepultura : too bad i'm canadian
09:08 burento : and they can organize a gaming session on digg
09:08 tamar : karim
09:08 burento : and not get banned
09:08 tamar : stfu
09:08 Linsys : Well they oponed themselves up to this with the friends feature and the shout feature, when I started digg this whole shout thing didn't even
exist
09:08 burento : wtf is up with that
09:08 supernova17 : :P
09:08 Linsys : What did they think would happen
09:08 webaddict : Linsys good point
09:08 suxmonkey : @ifnotme: i submitted a vid from youtube when i had maybe a dozen friends ... it got 2500 diggs ;) it's part luck, i'll admit, and part
headling things right and finding awesome breaking content
09:08 skitzzo : trying to read this chat is making my head hurt
09:08 tamar : <censored>?!
09:08 burento : we spend time watching feeds
09:08 burento : to get fresh stuff
09:08 cshel : there, that's better
09:09 suxmonkey : and back then it was maybe 1 in 100 that hit the front for me, not 1 in 3
09:09 tamar : give me my birthday present reg
09:09 bamafun : WE'RE UP EARLY and work all day digging off and on
09:09 TannerG : Why not have the top submitters be more in power? They've proven that the community likes them, why not utilize them for faster news
aggregation
09:09 tamar : hahaha
09:09 ifnotme : @suxmonkey you had a dozen friends! That is key
09:09 tamar : stop multitasking
09:09 First_Digg : tamar birthday? HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
09:09 tamar : focus on speaking!
09:09 tamar : it was 3 weeks ago, reg is slow
09:09 SilentjayownscGt2099 : word up
09:09 supernova17 : digg is gonna be bought by news corp within 2 months
09:09 rizzn : The problem of democracy is exemplified in the experiment of Digg.
09:09 supernova17 : who wants to bet?
09:09 Linsys : lool special place in hell!
09:09 dotlizard : @TannerG: exactly.
09:09 burento : they focus on us alone though
09:09 sepultura : i matter
09:09 sepultura : :)
09:09 skitzzo : Karim, who's gonna buy it?
09:09 ustreamer|26971 : Sup socialpyramid, this show rocks
09:09 ifnotme : Homepage requires 3 things: 1) Great content 2) great Head line, 3) FRIENDS!
09:09 rizzn : Digg is trying to minimize the tyrrany of the majority.
09:09 suxmonkey : not always friends
09:09 pmg2007 : there will always be a hole in every algorithm
09:09 rizzn : *minority
09:09 suxmonkey : but your chances are higher with friends
09:09 webaddict : I'm lagging... grrrr
09:10 skitzzo : Ok ok, let's not do politics here kids
09:10 sepultura : i'll buy digg, anyone got 300 mil? i'll make it good! :)

09:10 moojj : woah, a $500 burger... mmmmm
09:10 tamar : wendys sucks
09:10 digidave : We should realize that there are alternatives!!!!!!!!!!!!
09:10 webaddict : Interesting point Reg.
09:10 suxmonkey : every day i see no-name submitters with no friends on the front ... few and far between, true, but there are some at least ;)
09:10 ustreamer|26971 : how do I get my name on this thing?
09:10 toecracker|2324 : Reg's Rant way to go!

09:10 blinding_dawn : I want that burger
09:10 suxmonkey : ustreamer, type: /nick yourname
09:10 TannerG : Exactly, we've seen the community has enough voice against the top submittters to keep them in check, it makes sense to use them for what
they do best
09:10 SilentjayownscGt2099 : hello
09:10 webaddict : type : / nick yournewname
09:10 ifnotme : @sux I should not say never, but very rarelt

09:12 skitzzo : which we're burying down btw
09:12 Linsys : All they are opening themselves up to is private digg rings and proxy digging
09:12 digidave : @ifnotme that's the problem. This should be fun - not work
09:12 pmg2007 : I live in Longmont and I have a loft in Denver

09:13 ustreamer|73799 : bullshit
09:13 burento : Listen dear Kevin: You WON'T BE ABLE using an algorithm -as smart it could be- to decide of the content's quality. You can NOT do that.
Period. What you're claiming is that diversifying things make content more "accurate"? This is Lame!
09:13 SilentJay74 : Bury it
09:13 ifnotme : digi: btw you submit great stuff
09:13 burento : how many diggs
09:13 digidave : That story was already burried -- and then they pushed it up again
09:13 SilentJay74 : Move move move
09:13 ChrisMcGill : Where's Mr. Rose?
09:13 TannerG : The Pirate Bay should buy Digg so we can defy corporate BS with the might of the swedes
09:13 burento : 70?
09:13 pmg2007 : with how many buries
09:13 moojj : use the silly voice when reading kevin rose' excerpts

09:13 First_Digg : 24 burries right now
09:13 First_Digg : and it hit front page
09:13 SilentJay74 : Is this the real Mr McGill
09:13 Linsys : ?

09:15 tamar : no
09:15 suxmonkey : lmaooo moojj
09:15 suxmonkey : who made that?!?!
09:15 burento : if we had that dorment account a single bury would make it gone
09:15 tamar : he hasn't emailed me yet
09:15 First_Digg : should someone post the link to this chat on kevin's post's comments? to get him to call in to the podcast?
09:15 burento : !!!!!!!!!!!!
09:15 moojj : www.burykevinrose.com
09:15 numberneal : kevin rose should ban himself
09:15 TannerG : How do you define diversity>
09:15 TannerG : ?
09:15 ustreamer|77776 : I think it is funny that some of the stuff that Kevin diggs doesn't go popular
09:15 talsiach : @sux mine is on 138!
09:15 socialpyramid : digidave's has 163
09:15 socialpyramid : no fp
09:16 sepultura : lol moojh

09:16 sepultura : www.burykevinrose.com
09:16 sepultura : ww.burykevinrose.com
09:16 sepultura : ww.burykevinrose.com
09:16 Aidenag : i dout it would work
09:16 suxmonkey : lol
09:16 suxmonkey : flooooddddd
09:16 tamar : ! because i don't think that means anything about diversity
09:16 digidave : whoever owns that should change the image --
09:16 supernova17 : reg is awesome when he's not drunk
09:16 ustreamer|88588 : it's been tested and doesn't
09:16 tamar : you'll still digg the same people!
09:16 Oboy : I don't think it does - not friends, at least
09:16 zaibatsu : hey
09:16 SilentJay74 : Dman link is not working
09:16 TannerG : Digg needs a ethnicity day
09:16 SilentJay74 : Top Digger effect
09:16 zaibatsu : I had a drink today
09:16 First_Digg : I agree, its not friends list, its who you digg
09:16 toecracker|2324 : www.RegNoMates.com
09:16 hamstu : hey zaibatsu
09:16 Oboy : xactly, Andy
09:16 ifnotme : I think what Kevin means is that not the same people digging each other and digging the same stuff
09:16 numberneal : i had a drink tonight
09:16 Aidenag : Its about voting pattern's of users
09:16 supernova17 : haha
09:16 cGt2099 : http://www.mixx.com/photos/74018/bury-kevin-rose
09:16 burento : but as a top user everyone likes you
09:16 numberneal : chardonnay
09:17 zaibatsu : hey manstu
09:17 ustreamer|88588 : 'a' drink Reg???
09:17 sepultura : ANDY, look at this, i think Moojj put it up ww.burykevinrose.com
09:17 burento : so you have to hope for random new people
09:17 sepultura : ANDY, look at this, i think Moojj put it up ww.burykevinrose.com
09:17 socialpyramid : I don't think it's libel
09:17 burento : inactive people
09:17 socialpyramid : he's a public figure
09:17 skitzzo : I think diversity means people that don't normally digg the same stories
09:17 tamar : i dont think andy is looking
09:17 supernova17 : who wants to buy my account?
09:17 Oboy : Plus the source of the diggs
09:17 sepultura : ANDY, look at this, i think Moojj put it up ww.burykevinrose.com
09:17 numberneal : i'll buy that for a dollar
09:17 TannerG : Well how the <censored> do you define diversity? Are you saying some Diggs don't even count now?
09:17 digidave : But the people who Digg regularly is a CLOSED NETWORK!!!!!!!!!!
09:17 tamar : the only person looking is REG
09:17 bamafun : too funny moojj
09:17 ifnotme : If people who never digg your stuff suddenly digg you, that means you stuff is more widely interesting
09:17 TannerG : IT should be switched, new users should prove themselves
09:17 hamstu : lol @burykevinrose ...
09:17 webaddict : DIGG ALGO: If said digger typically diggs said digg submitter, it probably counts as a basic digg. If a random digg, diggs a post it
counts for much more because it is diversity and shows it is a unique interest.
09:17 sepultura : lol moojj
09:18 linsys : i agree with this conversation
09:18 skitzzo : right, why make it a social NETWORK if they don't want us to become friends?
09:18 gbarberi : lol @ moojj
09:18 TannerG : No, it means they have little graps on the network
09:18 digidave : The upcoming section is only used by a closed network in the first place.
09:18 ukdave : Logged in now
09:18 Matt_Schlicht : word
09:18 bamafun : i agree skitzzo
09:18 talsiach : hi dave
09:18 tamar : because regular diggers don't know what the hell an upcoming section is
09:18 webaddict : YES REG
09:18 ukdave : now then Tal
09:18 digidave : that's why the front page is what explodes the number of diggs... those people just wait..
09:18 sepultura : www.burykevinrose.com
09:18 linsys : thats why private proxy enabled digg networks are becoming more effective
09:18 cGt2099 : The 4 Major reasons why Diggers should revolt:
09:18 cGt2099 : 1. The new algorithm issue
09:18 Oboy : http://revoltnation.ning.com
09:18 digidave : Crao
09:18 socialpyramid : amen
09:18 cGt2099 : 2. Autobury
09:18 moojj : www.burykevinrose.com
09:19 TannerG : It conpletely defeats the social aspect
09:19 cGt2099 : 3. Moderators
09:19 webaddict : @Tamar correct, 95% diggers don't touch the upcoming
09:19 anon|3229 : http://valleywag.com/348346/an-open-letter-to-digg-from-top-digg-users/
09:19 cGt2099 : 4. The Bannings
09:19 skitzzo : 3. Bury brigade
09:19 supernova17 : autobury affects shitty sites
09:19 TannerG : I'd rather have someone with experience be in control
09:19 TannerG : That's what she said
09:19 skitzzo : autobury hits good sites too
09:19 sarazen : it makes the content less vetted.
09:19 msaleem : sorry: http://valleywag.com/348346/an-open-letter-to-digg-from-top-digg-users/ that's from us
09:19 skitzzo : Karim, freaking copyblogger is on autobury now
09:19 linsys : yep, lets make botz
09:19 digidave : XACTLY!
09:20 burento : or leave
09:20 Oboy : Why Russia?
09:20 ukdave : auto-bury sucks ass
09:20 webaddict : I don't think it's happened in Russia yet.
09:20 digidave : The people who actually browse the upcoming section is a CLOSED Network
09:20 supernova17 : i have a botnet in russia haha
09:20 linsys : They want us to use Tor!
09:20 webaddict : but you are right, that could be a result of current actions.
09:20 ukdave : my submits get targeted for it
09:20 supernova17 : how did you guys know
09:20 tamar : stop stealing my font and color dave ;)
09:20 blinding_dawn : India is on the ball

09:21 sepultura : FREE DIGG T SHIRTS
09:21 tamar : 3. digg needs to unban people who were banned
09:21 cGt2099 : I can't speak for Diggers, but if you guys go down the road of a boycott, you would all be welcome at Mixx
09:21 bamafun : People deserve an EMAIL
09:21 SilentJay74 : ANSWERS!
09:21 sarazen : yes, answer support.
09:21 TannerG : Wait, let's do what we did last ttime, no submits
09:21 toecracker|2324 : let's submitt 30 stories each per day
09:21 Oboy : ) Algo changes, 2) Bannings without emails 3) Autobury

09:21 burento : Number 1 is they should bring back support
09:21 SilentJay74 : Not a response from India!
09:21 Mazy : san fran minimum wage is like $9.15/hr
09:21 supernova17 : come on guys
09:22 ustreamer|88588 : make buries public
09:22 TannerG : NO SUBMITS, SHOW THEM OUR POWER
09:22 digidave : ) Lack of communication and disregard for the Digg community
09:22 First_Digg : mu: 100% agreed. just get them to talk to the comunity!
09:22 TannerG : FOR GLORY, FOR DIGG!!!!
09:22 makimaki : If you aren't gonna do something that AFFECTS Digg as a business, they ain't gonna listen.
09:22 Oboy : Digg Forum
09:22 Aidenag : The last no submit revolt didnt work though...
09:22 digidave : 2) Unexplained and unacknowledged banning of top users
09:22 moojj : awwwww
09:22 burento : THE PROBLEM IS DIGG WONT LISTEN
09:22 Aidenag : almost all top users stopped for weeks, we removed our avatars, it did jack
09:22 sarazen : no riot then?
09:22 moojj : i wanted it to explode
09:22 burento : they refuse to talk to us
09:22 First_Digg : we all love digg. plain in simple. thats why we are here. I agree with Mu 100%
09:22 sepultura : http://revoltnation.ning.com/
09:22 SilentJay74 : Damn Mu sounds like you are talking about Mixx, a site who care about thier users
09:22 bamafun : Its not right to BAN PEOPLE WITHOUT EVEN AN EMAIL
09:22 TannerG : Let's learn from the French!
09:22 TannerG : We need massive revolts
09:23 suxmonkey : i agree they probably won't listen ... it makes me sad tho
09:23 burento : Digg is not watching
09:23 ukdave : Sepultura I just got a free hoodie, it is pretty smart, I wore it up twon on Sat.
09:23 ifnotme : Mu, the challange is that digg wants a wider variety of submitters.
09:23 toecracker|2324 : the top diggers should not be penalised for being good enough to find great content and submit it
09:23 TannerG : No, no, no we need big revolts
09:23 burento : it took Valley wag to get a response
09:23 Oboy : NOT a no-submit revolt. A MEGA submit revolt
09:23 sepultura : they don't care...
09:23 TannerG : They listen for a while then ignore us
09:23 tamar : what, submitting what
09:23 sepultura : they wanna get out
09:23 webaddict : 4 staffers - 18 million users, personal emails? Not going to happen.
09:23 tamar : kevin's social security #?
09:23 Oboy : story with our demands - submitted by 100 people (duped, of course)
09:23 TannerG : HD-DVD key REVOLT
09:23 webaddict : = 14
09:23 tamar : no, kevin's social security #
09:23 bamafun : WHY NOT SCOUTS LIKE AT PROPELLER?
09:23 burento : same here
09:23 Matt_Schlicht : Off topic
09:23 suxmonkey : webaddict: it used to happen
09:23 burento : i have been to Digg 2 times
09:23 toecracker|2324 : oBoy, i agree. Let's submit like crazy
09:23 suxmonkey : used to get email responses from digg
09:23 burento : and never seen kevin
09:24 supernova17 : digg has 43 people on payroll
09:24 pmg2007 : i agree that this is a game and those who play it the best should be rewarded
09:24 blinding_dawn : @bamafun No.. not that
09:24 webaddict : @sux I know... but they can't keep up with it.
09:24 Fireman17 : i been to digg alot
09:24 webaddict : @sux they could if they choose the top 1000 for communication.
09:24 skitzzo : I think we should all submit content from BloggingExperiment.com :D
09:24 bamafun : a few to talk to us be a go between
09:24 toecracker|2324 : Kevin Rose, your tribe has spoken - you are gone
09:24 digidave : They had that once
09:24 Oboy : Let's write 1 story, post it on a blog, and everyone we can get to submit the dupe of it, submit it dozens of times
09:24 digidave : well.. not open
09:24 cGt2099 : Kevin Rose, you are the weakest link, goodbye
09:24 TannerG : WRITERS STRIKE
09:24 moojj : i dont agree with that logic
09:24 tamar : haha
09:24 SilentJay74 : WOW like Mixxingbowl
09:24 burento : i have access to that group
09:24 sepultura : too many URL posts..
09:24 burento : and they stopped posting
09:25 webaddict : Whoo hoo! Digg Forum.
09:25 suxmonkey : yar, but they have lots of money ... couldn't they hire some phone monkeys? :D
09:25 cGt2099 : MIXX FTW
09:25 ukdave : I can't believe how many diggers are on this board.
09:25 burento : there is a google group
09:25 suxmonkey : hiya dave
09:25 hotfuzz : Mixx!!!
09:25 cGt2099 : They are VERY active, Andy
09:25 SilentJay74 : They do not run the forum
09:25 ustreamer|73799 : :)
09:25 ukdave : now then sux
09:25 sepultura : mixx is great
09:25 moojj : the only thing that seperates digg from other social news sites is the community. anyone can make a digg clone. not everyone can get diggs
submitters. so the pricetag on digg is directly related to the community.
09:25 webaddict : @ukdave welcome to the drill down
09:25 TannerG : Kevin was part of the Google Group but it is inactive
09:25 moojj : why sit back?
09:25 SilentJay74 : Mixx members created and run the forum but they do come in the forum and participate
09:25 supernova17 : http://groups.google.com/group/DiggUsersSupport/topics old group
09:25 toecracker|2324 : go bamafun
09:25 ukdave : @webaddic - Thanks
09:25 sepultura : we need to know that they're here for us
09:26 ustreamer|73799 : u da man moojj
09:26 First_Digg : You cannot view the group's content or participate in the group because you are not currently a member. Membership is invite only.
09:26 Matt_Schlicht : I talked to Kevin on Friday - I told him I'd been banned 3 times
09:26 msaleem : we voiced our concerns here: http://valleywag.com/348346/an-open-letter-to-digg-from-top-digg-users
09:26 msaleem : 4 points
09:26 Oboy : It takes a long time to program a forum (like a week)
09:26 ifnotme : Digusergroup says it is invite only
09:26 bamafun : just to feel like they listen !! Common Courtesy
09:26 TannerG : Digg is slow as <censored> for doing stuff
09:26 TannerG : Look at the pics
09:26 ustreamer|85580 : http://digg.com/security/An_open_letter_to_Digg_from_Top_Digg_Users
09:26 TannerG : The pics section took forever
09:26 skitzzo : nah, 5 of those are me
09:26 skitzzo : lol
09:26 TannerG : VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
09:26 webaddict : @Oboy Fantastico makes forums a 2 minute process
09:26 ukdave : you spammer skitzzo
09:27 Arith|3044 : he's a digg <censored>
09:27 Oboy : @webaddict - tell kevin about it
09:27 TannerG : Forums are not Web 2.0 Mu!
09:27 burento : Cause it is all about money to them
09:27 TannerG : Random gatherings like this are!!
09:27 SilentJay74 : AMEN MU FTW!!!!
09:27 moojj : their blog doesnt even allow comments
09:27 Oboy : HIre me, then
09:27 tamar : my motorsport submission has 100 diggs :(
09:27 SilentJay74 : YES!!!
09:27 moojj : they just assume every post will make it to digg front page
09:27 sepultura : who uses that?
09:27 hamstu : lol
09:27 ukdave : too right
09:27 TannerG : So we can see crap so much better
09:27 linsys : I doubt its about staff issues, its about control
09:27 hamstu : Digg likes eye candy
09:27 skitzzo : I'm just protecting my different names
09:27 verge : no <censored>, mu... agreed
09:28 bamafun : I will pay for the 2nd month
09:28 tamar : why censor it
09:28 tamar : NO <censored> SHERLOCK
09:28 bamafun : lets all chip in
09:28 burento : they just dont care guys
09:28 skitzzo : whats' up verge didn't see you here
09:28 burento : it is not thought out or difficult
09:28 burento : they got paid
09:28 verge : hiya skitz
09:28 burento : and they dont care
09:28 cGt2099 : ATTENTION:
09:28 webaddict : Ajax Bury Recorder was much more exciting and effective than the Digg Widgets / Programs like Spy, Arc
09:28 cGt2099 : TWITTER is back online
09:28 Vaiosaurus : users need a voice
09:28 annonymous|200 : testing
09:28 SilentJay74 : Absolutley!!!
09:28 TannerG : Kevin should take advantage of not being buzzed all the time
09:28 burento : unless your on the edge of a revolt
09:28 toecracker|2324 : gidday first digg
09:28 socialpyramid : Digidave's sory went fp
09:28 annonymous|200 : http://www.revoltnation.blogspot.com
09:28 burento : then they make a lame post
09:28 tamar : cant you guys get unique colored text
09:28 tamar : not use mine
09:29 tamar : or black
09:29 tamar : :)
09:29 ukdave : They noramally get back to me, unless I ask about why a story got buried or why a site got banned/auto buried. They have fixed typos and
<censored> for me quite a few times
09:29 sepultura : http://digg.com/security/An_open_letter_to_Digg_from_Top_Digg_Users

09:29 TannerG : I am green!
09:29 toecracker|2324 : i am changing to your color Tamar
09:29 suxmonkey : but andy: yes, people want to talk to digg, but digg wants to sell itself as moslty automated, even if it costs them a bit of ad revenue
they could get out of a forum :P
09:29 tamar : ok!
09:29 toecracker|2324 : that's better
09:29 tamar : but it's really dave's fault
09:29 suxmonkey : annnnnnnnnnnnndy
09:29 digidave : no check this article: http://valleywag.com/348346/an-open-letter-to-digg-from-top-digg-users
09:29 Oboy : Sux - Exactly
09:29 sepultura : new article http://digg.com/security/An_open_letter_to_Digg_from_Top_Digg_Users
09:29 linsys : The forum issues isn't about money
09:29 TannerG : VIVA LA REVOLUTION
09:29 Oboy : That's why they don't respond
09:29 webaddict : Digg could get top users to field the forum for free or a cut of ads on the forum itself.
09:29 bamafun : Lopez DUPED me lol
09:30 TannerG : D for DIGG
09:30 suxmonkey : yup web
09:30 Oboy : 0%
09:30 tamar : dont mess with mklopez
09:30 zaibatsu : It's all me
09:30 linsys : And they want to change that, most people think that hitting the front page of digg is impossible
09:30 skitzzo : pleasant
09:30 tamar : who just coughed up a lung
09:30 moojj : hahaha
09:30 hamstu : lol
09:30 First_Digg : zaibatsu's dying!
09:31 linsys : they want to change that perspective
09:31 TannerG : Why are all the experienced people being pinished?
09:31 sepultura : Why do people not respect us?
09:31 zaibatsu : not so
09:31 tamar : someone call the wahhhhhhhhmbulance
09:31 zaibatsu : where's my wine glass
09:31 webaddict : I can see that linsys
09:31 linsys : because they can get more members and submissions of people think they can hit the front page.
09:31 digidave : nobody thinks you are!
09:31 sepultura : we do it because we love it
09:31 burento : we are the least likely to blindly bury
09:31 sepultura : it's a hobby
09:31 linsys : But its all about a preception
09:31 digidave : it wa a hobby!! Now it feels like a job.
