Mathew's comments: How to handle getting buried on Digg

    Ha! Nice work indeed. :-)

    I don't think my 'most buried comments' list is very accurate anymore, though I am pretty sure this is the most buried comment. There was another one on a story about James Kim that is probably pretty close.

    The interesting thing is that a comment with that amount of - diggs gets way more attention than a comment with + diggs. Odd. :)

    That is interesting, isn't it Stephen? I have a theory that the most buried links and comments actually attract readers -- I know I check them out now and then, just to find out what everyone thought was so bad. That's why I like this site: http://duggtrends.com/buried.aspx

    Have to love this Chandler kid. Cooler than all the Digg buriers collectively.

    I once had something similar happen where my personal contact information was posted on Digg. Some Diggers even crank called my house?!?? Joke was on them as I have caller ID and anonymous calls are blocked...

    The offending Digger who posted my information was quickly banned (and a few others) after a quick email to Digg support.

    Glad to hear that, HMTKSteve -- that kind of stuff is just not on.
