Mod type things and a heads up
(
twilight_mash, hope you do not take offence to me posting this before I had a chance to discuss it with you.)
#Hello people this is one of this coms, (Slacker, I admit,) Co-mods posting here.
Yes Yes I will be posting more fic at some point this year, Thats a promise. No excuses etc etc.
However that is not the reason for my post today.
Now I do not know how many people on the com are keeping up with the latest fandom kerfuffle to have hit live journal. If you do not know what I am on about then here is a brief summery. There's a group of people calling themselves , Warriors for Innocence. (As they have been tracking links I will not post a link to them, basically they seem to be just this side of legal and just the other side of, ahem over enthusastic shall I say!)They claim to be helping to protct innocent children who have been effected by abuse. This group has handed a list of apparently offensive communities and users to LJ, based on their interests. I think everyone here is smart enough to work out what them intrests may be. Many, many communities and users have been suspended permanatly, as far as I understand it. If you have not been following this then this link here has the info and updates about whats going on and other relevent links etc.
Now I suspect this community here is not going to be one effected, as I do not believe that we have any dodgy user intrests or fic in this com. However , what if any action do members want Mods to take to cover our collctive arses in case this situation escalates?, (and the way things are going it looks like it potentually might. )
Also does anyone have any ideas or suggestions in any prompts or challenges etc to bring this community back to life, or does everyone like the com exactly the way it is right now. (And dudes if that is the case then that suits me just fine :) )
Over to you folks.
