"If this is how the majority of the Digg community feels, I'll quit."

Oh, it is.

      1,000,000 diggs to get MrBabyMan to quit.
      Or, win a boxing match with him. That might do the trick.

        He gets his stories because he's Mr.BabyMan. He submits a lot of stupid stories or lame lolcat images that we can find anywhere, and they get to the front because of who he is.

        I have no problems with MrBabyMan but I do have a problem with the digg system. If this site truly awarded the best content then it would block the user's name. Instead it is the people that get dugg up rather than the content. It is nothing more than a popularity contest.

        No, I agree, I have absolutely no issue with MrBabyMan as a person, he doesn't annoy me, but I have seen articles which other people have posted getting no-where and he posts it and it gets to the front page. And that's only because he posted it. Give someone else a chance BabyMan.

        That's not quite true as we all seem to hate MrBabyMan yet we still digg his submissions

        its so true, i had to be mean, but i am sure most of digg can't make it to the front page becuase of his kind. It happened to one story i sent in he sent in an hour later and he made front page.

        he gets his stories frontpaged because he has figured out the social network promotion system. if you have a digg-making machine as a friend/shout list too, every piece of garbage you submit would get frontpaged, too. So, the problem is the friend network, not any one person.
