I hope you’ve had a great holiday season, and I look forward to a new year! I apologize for the length of this post, but we've got a lot to address

Staying on LJ guarantees a gradual erosion of features and usability. Eventually we won't have subject lines anymore. The subject line issue could be worked around, a little bit, but my real concern is trigger warnings. I feel like many people won't use trigger warnings as much if it requires remembering additional HTML.

Additionally, I've heard some rumblings about comments from deleted journals disappearing. If that means losing content from old, deleted journals, then I would rather move than lose that content in old SP posts.

Thanks for your input, and also for clarifying your position!

I believe the comments from deleted journals are only gone under the new style--in custom comment pages, the data is still there (unless the journal-deleter chose the option of deleting all their comments, of course.)

This isn't really a pro- or anti-moving comment, as I haven't decided myself what to vote, but just to get the most accurate info out there. Then again, if I'm wrong on this, please someone correct me!

Thanks, I'm glad to have the accurate information up here!

It makes sense that it's only the new style. However, it still concerns me, since Igrick and others have stated that eventually, the changes to S1 style will come to S2 as well. It makes sense to me that some day, we can expect to watch comments from deleted journals disappear.

Yeah, it's a concern for me as well. I just figure it's good to avoid freaking people out unnecessarily, especially considering all the necessary freaking out of late.
