This happened to us today also with a site. It is total bullshit. I agree. Your site looks nothing like spam so Digg is crap. They won't create a solid business with this kind of attitude and no appeal process. I came across your site searching for a way to get a site “unspammed” on Digg.

Clearly, Digg management did not have the courtesy to look into this, and their decision suggests that their top users are spammers.

But we never did that. A lot of people right before the ban were submitting old stuff that had already been on digg before so maybe that did tick them off. But we have no control over that. So I'm not sure what happened really. It seemed to happen around the time our post about displaying the flag was on digg, and I suspect that many digg users marked that one as spam.

Like Ryan, I found AoM through Digg and now I'm dedicated fan of your site. Not that I use digg that much, but I wonder what other great site they call "spam" and aren't reaching the right readers.

It's unfortunate to see this happen. I have contacted Digg regarding this and informed them that I will no longer be using their service as long as this goes uncorrected. Maybe it won't mean anything to them, but it doesn't hurt to try. Digg is what introduced me to the AoM. It’s unfortunate to see this happen.
