Illegal and Harmful Content Policy Clarifications

[theljstaff]

We are sorry it has taken so long to address the concerned community members. From reading the recent comments there's a lot of misinformation regarding the two users who were permanently suspended on Friday. In this post we're going to try and condense and reiterate all of our recent policy clarifications as well as address the most frequent

UPSET? NINJA-LIKE ACTIONS TO TAKE! (READ THIS, FOLKS!)

[devilish__angel]

First of all, bad_wolf_bitch posted a very helpful list of actions to take.

Secondly! Those of you who recently purchased anything from lj... lodge a complaint with your credit card company. Specify that the merchant is not delivering on what they promised. It's likely that if the transaction was made within the last couple of months, you'll get a refund. (Sorry, this doesn't help older accounts purchased. But it's a start.)

Hit 'em in the pocketbook, right where it hurts most.

Also, I'm going to be keeping a close watch on this comment, just to make sure it doesn't get deleted. If it does, I'm just going to keep re-posting it.

DIGG THIS

[sea0tter12]

Another ninja action to take: Digg this, and let everyone know about LJ.

would you recommend flogging? burning at the stake?

[elphaba_thropp]

In most customer service jobs he would've been fired. I would've settled for at least an apology from him. But I guess we aren't even important enough for that.

you can't have a self-esteem pony. not yours.

[ladyjaida]

I'm concerned about the fact that you did not warn the members in question, giving them--as you promised you would in earlier posts--a chance to remove the offending content. Why was this?

[pheret1]

I think this is an important concern as well.

[pheret1]

Yet, as I read again it seems to be saying that will not be happening.

[ladyjaida]

Yeah, same here. :)

Also, maybe I'm just completely out of it, but...has ljstaff made posts before, either in lj_biz or elsewhere? Or is this a new journal made to handle things? Merely curious. I never pay attention to these things (and see where that gets me, huh!) :)

[lovedforaday]

This is a better start.

[tulleskirt]

Just popped into say--nice icon. ;)

[lexexperiment]

What makes you think that? Looks like just more of the same BS.

(Nice icon, though.)

[lovedforaday]

Okay, so I didn't read the whole thing before I commented. Yes, it is the same old BS, vague crap as before now. :(

[_acerbitas_]

This is a really lame place to say this but I love your icon. A Scanner Darkly is the best, seriously. :)
