Me? I never figured out what these "social bookmarking tools " are actually supposed to do.
So you click on it if you see a link under an article or some such thing and then it gets added to one of those thingiebobbies that are called digg.it, delicious (so's icecream) or some such names and then what?
Does this have something to do with the whole Web 2.0 malarke? Can we slashdot the next troll? Or shall we digg it? |

Explanation for the confused:
Digg is a "social bookmarking site" or as it's better known, elaborate forum.
Slashdot is a "geek news" site or as it's better known, ugly ass forum-esque site from 1926.
Delicious I'm not sure about but I believe it's a similar sort of thing.
Clicking the links will, theoretically, submit the current thread to either of those sites**
Once submitted, they then go into the moderation queue. On Digg, the stories that make the "front page" are decided by the number of people interested in them who then 'digg' them. On Slashdot, the "front page" stories are decided by the Slashdot admin / moderation team. Dunno how Delicious works.
The idea is that if you think a thread is really cool, you can easily submit it to one or more of those sites and 'share it with the world'.
Personally I don't think it's going to make any difference as it's rare that you see forum material make the front page of Digg and 419 related stuff isn't really geek based material so probably won't hit Slashdot.
** They won't at this moment since the URLs are broken on Digg and Delicious, but they would if they were coded correctly. |

Yup, where it says YOUR_URL you put, er, your URL
So for the digg link,
Code: |
http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=http://www.YOUR_URL/
viewtopic.php?t=115731&start=25&postdays=0&postorder=asc&
highlight=&title= |
becomes
Code: |
http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=http://
forum.419eater.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=115731&
start=25&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=&title= |
Same for delicious.
Mod Edit: Lines of code broken to prevent page blowout [BB] |

You need a login on most user-submitted-content sites so they know who submitted it.

Sites usually do it to make it "convenient" to share something you think is worth sharing. It's also free advertising on a really big scale, assuming it makes the front page.
There is one thing to keep in mind Rover, if you're reading... if you hit front page you could get thousands if not tens of thousands of hits in a short space of time (like an hour) and then a continued flood of hits after that... not that many sites survive the digg or slashdot effect and phpbb isn't known for overly optimized code. |

Isn't it obvious? Those sites are hurting and need attention from Eater to keep them going.

We've been /.-ed a number of times. The resulting down time was usually <6 hours. |

Have you forgotten that diamonds are basically compressed carbon, not compressed shite? Shite doesn't have a high enough C content. All the same I suggest that we try compressing the next troll to make sure. Just mind the squishy leftovers. |

No. Your computer might explode.
EDIT : My ten cents. I dont 'digg' it. Slashdot is for technical news and whoever heard of the last one. Besides, its all together too easy for lads to find this site and all of it's resources already without going out and advertising! |

@Rover: I was wondering if you would be willing to put a content link to Facebook, seeing that there are quite a few of us that are on Facebook (myself included) that would love to share our baiting efforts here.
If you want, I can generate the link and give you a Facebook icon. Let me know! |

Lads are either spotted immediately at signup by us or within three posts by everyone else.
Getting the word out to victims or potential victims is well worth the risk of the occasional lad finding us. |

This thread saved me the bother to bring up the issue myself. And *big surprise* the mods answers are napless, mystical and zeroauxiliary IMHO
Mod comment: I'm with you on the mystical part (Breddan still frightens me sometimes with his eerie info gathering tricks), but you lost me on the other two. TS |
