Just a note...

back when Six Apart decided to try and limit posting to x-posts for x-account depending on level..

like 5 posts for basic users, 10 for paid, 15 for perms and early ads...

the community went up in arms and the decission, as you know, was dropped... cause here we are - still able to post as much as we like.

Why? Because there was a large enough show of support for the wishes of the community. The community pushed back, and the hosters listened.

SUP is no different, and they shouldn't be alowed to believe that they are...

simply because they wish to run a buisness.

They will get what they want, if we allow them to.

They in return must give to us...

like you said - negotiation... if they are going to demand something they have to let us get something in return for it or we will resent it.

that was why they dropped the censorship component...

they had enough flack for it, and now they have more.

I'm not deluded, but i have confidence in the LJ community, because I've seen what it can do and I know what it is capable of, and I know that the LJ community does get results.
