Again, old, but still relevent.

So good old lj_biz updated its policy yet again and there's still comment space left. (Wow! The last one maxed out quickly.) I left my two cents, but it wasn't a completely drawn out affair, just sort so. (Is that a real phrase?)

The comment was basically an answer to the post and included points from my "celebration" of being on LJ for three years

I like your comment. Very well said.

As for me, I gave up giving a damn regarding their link rules and whatnot. If they delete me, whatever. I've nothing to lose anymore.

[dmitchell1985]

Why thank you. Have you left one of your own that I can go read?

Yeah, I don't see how we're going to work our way out of this one. Everytime that they post, the comments just become wank, because LJ is creating it. Do you plan to move over to another site?

[gothatheartholo]

XD nah, I'm more of those people who vanish without a word or something. XD heck, I don't think people in my lj realize I've already been gone. I don't post in my lj anymore. XD

Yeah, I've moved my fanfics over IJ (safest place at the moment), but my back up journal for both fanfics, and also my personal journal is over greatest journal.

[dmitchell1985]

I know that you friended me on other sites, but I figured that everyone was going to keep their LJs in some way as a go-between.

I really need to create a back up, but I might need to do all of my entries by hand. I have hundreds, so it'll take some time. I looked into the programs and some of them don't transfer over moods, while others include comments. It's still comfusing like whoa.

[gothatheartholo]

Yeah. I get the feeling that other people wouldn't be that worried unless something happens to them. In my case, having ponderosa121 deleted @_@ hit far too close to home. @_@ ugh. Hence the reason why I backed up my stuff and went off lj. XD

[dmitchell1985]

Yeah. Just watching all of those people be deleted, especially the big to-do with elaboration and ponderosa121, sort of did me in. I definitely needed a secure place offsite.

[gothatheartholo]

Yeah, even with my personal lj, I'm not even so secure now. Lj seems to be targeting HP first though.

[dmitchell1985]

Personal journals really aren't. In LJ's posts, they've stated that even private entries no one but you will see are at risk. This is crazy.

[gothatheartholo]

DX oh yeah, and I also heard about the whole rating thing using tags. DX ugh. So you have to rate yourself, which makes us an easy target anyway? DX

[dmitchell1985]

What rating thing? You have to rate yourself how? I mean, I definitely think that I am 'hot', if that's wa tey're getting at. = P

[gothatheartholo]

/snigger/ Eh, it's more like a suggestion or what they might do in the future.

[dmitchell1985]

Ahh. I think that I must have missed that one. maybe we should start a How Would You Rate LJ Meme and pass it about. That should be fun.

[gothatheartholo]

/starts laughing/ XD yeah, that'd be much better. XDDD

[dmitchell1985]

Definitely, and who's to say where they'll go next? They could go after anyone and only then will all of the people who called fandom whiners and worse see that that maybe we weren't so wrong after all.

[gothatheartholo]

Yep, pretty much.
