Digg is a great way of crashing Scoobynet. All we have to do is pick a thread and all digg it. If it hits the front page of digg / All I'll put money the server will fall over, or at least creak a lot.

Ah yes, the 'Digg effect'. It has brought many well specced and administered sites to their knees.....



So this site would be completely shafted.

Why don't they just scrap the forum and use it for what they really want it for. A s*dding advertising machine!

Grrrrr!

Well, I use digg, delicious and technorati regularly. I still think there's no point having them on Scoobynet.

Are you saying you're not a furler .

Is furling something that is best done in the closet

Here's an idea to anyone who administers a forum:
When enabling a feature, post a FAQ

Unless it's typed in ****-lish like the zoints one

Oh joy, yet more pointless crap being added to SN. First we had Zoints, now these stupid things. I can't think of any reason why anyone would want to submit an SN thread/post to Digg. I can see it the other way round though.

It would be nice if there was a post in General from Shaun/Simon explaining what these things are, why they felt the need to add them to SN, and if there is an option to disable them (I've had a very quick look at the user control panel and cannot see anything there).

just another bit of page clutter that takes us further away from the point of the forum for us although probably closer for them
