I've just seen a link to http://blog.bitly.com/post/23998132587/welcome-to-the-new-bitly about the new bit.ly site and interface go [dead] (the article, by the way, is not that much interesting and i wouldn't upvote it or expect it to appear on first page... but neither should it be instantly flagged dead IMHO)... And I thought that this could be a small glitch in the flagging algorithm.

Is there a way to avoid this sort of thing when submitting a link to a "banned" url that you think still is legitimate ?
