I just skipped the stories that didn't interest me. I’m a regular user of Digg and I think I hardly ever buried any stories…

Although when I did visit, almost daily, I was very careful when I opted to Bury something. Something had to be extremely "lame" before I gave it a thumbs down. Mostly, however, I'd Bury something only if I knew it was a duplicate. That being said, a Bury option at some level must exist otherwise the "social" editorial portion becomes unbalanced. If you give people the opportunity to give something a "thumbs up" you must also present the "thumbs down" option. Unfortunately, once a "social editorial" site becomes popular and successful, "gaming" the system one way or the other is certain to follow. Despite Digg's inherit weaknesses I still like it.
