Maybe this is a little OT but it's my "other complaint".

[xcarex]

Even if there is some kind of a tangible apology to paid users (refund or the old stand-by of free paid time), it's absolutely embarassing how permanent members get treated by LJ. We're the people who believed in the site enough to jump at the chance to slap down several years worth of money, and we are never acknowledged when there's downtime due to stuff like the constant DDoS attacks. Everyone absolutely deserves a voice but it's incredibly frustrating that permanent users are in no way compensated for the fuckuppery, when pay-by-the-month/year users are.

I doubt this is ever going to change but I might get over it if the site honestly apologizes and rolls back to the site we've invested in.

Also-- hey, do you mind if we use your RollBack88 icon, with credit? I mean, yeah, it'll be a bitch to load it if it's not our default (topical reference, ahoy!), but I think that it could be neat if a lot of people started using it as an additional little action of complaint.

Re: Maybe this is a little OT but it's my "other complaint".

[rollback88]

Yeah, I was thinking of that too. You're more than welcome to use it and pass it on to anyone else to use.

Re: Maybe this is a little OT but it's my "other complaint".

[xcarex]

Done and defaulted.

Re: Maybe this is a little OT but it's my "other complaint".

[rollback88]

Sweet.

Re: Maybe this is a little OT but it's my "other complaint".

[spoofmaster]

I've put it up as my default as well.

I'm going to add it too. Thank you!

ETA: apparently not. While I can view & comment from work, uploading icons is still filtered. How weird! Will try to remember to do it when I get home, though!

[proseac1]

Thanks - I'm snagging the icon too. Let's get the word out!

Re: Maybe this is a little OT but it's my "other complaint".

[dickgloucester]

I've nicked it too. Thanks!

Re: Maybe this is a little OT but it's my "other complaint".

[kellzilla]

Totally stealing it too.

Re: Maybe this is a little OT but it's my "other complaint".

[billybobfred0]

I, too, am taking this icon.

Re: Maybe this is a little OT but it's my "other complaint".

[mrlnpndrgn]

Thank you for the icon :-)

I will credit.

Funny story: I tried to upload it via URL and LJ would not accept it. :|a

[g_shadowslayer]

This. Oh so very much this.

We said "I trust you" with our checkbooks, and they have screwed us without lube every damned time.

THIS!!! I look at my OOC account that I started in 2001 and weep that I shelled that money out.

[tigerzahn]

Mmphm. It would be nice, wouldn't it? Maybe if we could get more userpics than what could be paid for (Like way back when! 100 was a lot and unobtainable!), or something.

Honestly, I too would just be happy though if they rolled the damn Release 88 back. :c
