I have some good things to post, but that's not going to happen quite yet.

1. Community hackage: both contrelamontre and orlandoslash have been hacked, in the manner of the Shoebox Project hackage. LJ Abuse has been contacted, as have the real mods of contrelamontre. (If you know the mod of orlandoslash, please let them know, although I doubt anyone reading this is in that comm other than angiepen; ETA ( Read more... )

fandom, lj, rant, interesting pointers

Yeah, I am not sure that anything can be done about #1 (in a more general sense) other than having LJ change its philosophy of "the original email address may always access the account."

It would be a good idea to be able to remove your first email address if you've lost control of it, but I'm not sure how they'd do that without opening other possibilities of abuse instead.

Although you can only remove addresses that have been activated since the one you are using now, if that makes sense. I might actually change back to the address I started this account with - which I don't use any more because it's too clearly associated with my real name and email - and then delete a bunch of the old ones.

Yes, I know - the problem is your very first email address. If you lose control of that, you're screwed because it can't be removed at all.

Still, good idea to clean up old ones. I'm going to have to check mine too.
