I, however, can and want to only spend so much on one type of online activity, so I really prefer link hijacking and ads for freeloading users (i.e. ways that don't reach into my pocket).
See, that's exactly why I don't care if LJ hijacks your free journals or not, as I stated myself in an earlier comment. Serves you right for not wanting to help support LJ. They have got to make money somehow. And they have every right to.
Free users overwhelmingly have this "you owe us the stars moon and sun" attitude and in all honesty, I like seeing it punished accordingly. Maybe I'm a bit of a sadist in that sense, but I supported the site all along and I'm not sorry I did. I'm only sorry to see that LJ fucked me in spite of that. Free users? Whatever.
Now, getting back to your nasty little diatribe about DW, you're playing a little fast and loose with the facts, don'tcha think? No link to this "fundraiser" you're talking about, so I'm supposed to just take your word for it that....what? I don't even know what you're talking about! And in all honestly, I don't care, since it seems almost certain to me that you have whatever facts there are all wrong.
You're taking it all out of context, dear little sunflower. DW ran low in the war chest only because they had to stop accepting PayPal payments months ago over some nanny group that went to war with them over them supposedly hosting porn on the site. I think the exact accusation was child porn. It was unfounded, if I recall correctly, but either way, PayPal didn't want to hear that. They made a bunch of demands that DW only host kiddy-safe content so DW politely (extreme paraphrase warning) told them, more or less, to blow off. In the meantime, DW had no payment processing system, so they went *several months* unable to collect payments from any users at all, except by cash or check. Are you happy now? Jesus Christ.

Let me quote again: We'd already been running in the red from month to month, and the past few months have seen some additional expenses over and above the usual.
Kisses to you and your DW holy grail.
Get this through your pretty and quite useless little head, sun, 'cause I know you're still reading these comments:
The post you linked me to was written months *after* the post I linked you to. Here, since you seem to need a little help on the date-processing end:
Now here's the post I linked you to in response: http://dw-news.dreamwidth.org/16590.html written JANUARY 15 2010. Do I have to draw you a freaking diagram to prove to you how the one relates to the other, or are you going to (finally) concede the point?
Also, if you are going to keep replying to me, then deleting your replies before anyone else can see them, I'm afraid I will be forced to both reprint and screen cap them in my replies to you, so watch yourself.
And since you like to delete your comments after you write them so much I think now I'll keep doing it to you. The only difference is I'll keep republishing my comments before I delete them again because I'm not a coward like you are. Thanks for turning me onto this little game, it's actually quite fun!

I'm not the one who thought it was so serious that I deleted all her comments (assuming this was a "she/her"). She was. Damned if I know why she did that.

I cannot stand people twisting facts out of context. There is nothing worse than that except out-and-out lying, and you are pushing it.
