Digg Poweruser Banned
Brian Cuban, a Digg poweruser with 30,000 diggs, over 40 front page story submissions and 500 comments bears his heart and tells the world the story of how he was banned by digg for using scripts to automate digging. He even had a story that was picked up by the Wall Street Journal that landed him ESPN and Fox News interviews. Brian Cuban is also a Dallas Attorney and brother of billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban.
A large discussion of this story has erupted on Digg.com. Brian’s story, ironically made the Digg front page.

I enjoyed befriending Brian on Digg. Sad to see him banned. I suspect a lot of other Diggers use scripts and haven’t been busted.
