Buying Digg Votes: usocial? s&p?

[Dane850]

Okay so I know there's a lot of bad vibes around buying digg votes and all that, but I personally think it's a great idea. I've heard about subvert and profit for a while, but I always thought their prices were to expensive (at $1.50 per vote), but yesterday I found out about usocial.net from a blog (but to be honest, the guy was only writing the post to say how unethical it was, blah, blah, blah).

While I've never bought votes on digg or any other site before, I'm seriously considering it. I know it's very black hat but if it works, why not?

I'm wondering if anyone here has ever bought Diggs with S&P before (but more importantly, if you have with usocial.net) and what your results were.

Found this too...

Seems Digg are getting pissed at them for selling votes.

Digg Bans Company That Blatantly Sells Diggs

nothing will happen though...if S&P have been able to get away with it for years, then these guys will too.

I've paid for votes before and I've got other to vote for me trust me everyone games the system based upon how many friends they have and how many proxy accounts they have.

The Digg community is hard to convert into cash though and they don't like a ton of ads splashed on the pages your trying to digg.

As a last note, please don't say "it's very black hat" unless you know the meaning of the hats.

This is more along the lines of white hat not anywhere near black hat.

Hats?

Who does do?

Domaineers do.

Blackhats too.

It's not "very black hat" unless it is breaking laws and likely to be prosecuted where you are living.

At least that is my definition.

Yup, a guy cannot scratch his nuts without some noob calling it black hat these days.
