"submit this thread to _____" = Bad idea...

ND4SPD · 05-07-2008, 10:39 AM

I notice at the bottom of each post, there are 4 tiny square buttons which tag and submit it to digg.com / delicious / technorat / furl.

I think this is a horrible idea because - remember what happened when Desolators audio thread got "dugg"? (and then submitted to the other website)

Has the forum bandwidth been upgraded so something like that won't happen again? If not, it should really be removed.

I agree with Digg, but isn't del.icio.us just a way to keep save your bookmarks on the internet? I could be completely wrong...

I like the del.icio.us link; that's helpful.

The rest - don't care either way.

Ahh okay... I wasn't too sure what the others were. I assumed they were all digg-style news/websites, and if that were the case, it could be a disaster.
