I remember in my more naive LJ days (read: 6 years ago) discovering pro-anorexia communities and I complained to LJ Support. It seems their answer has not changed much in that time as I think I got a similar answer to what that discussions you linked to might received: we don't care and it doesn't violate our TOS. I agree with what you say - people should be allowed a forum to discuss what they're going through but not a forum to continue their harm. I've read some posts in those communities where girls call each other 'fat' for drinking two cups of green tea AND daring to have a biscuit as their entire consumption for a day. Is that any different to a community that lists self-harm as an interest

Having read through all of that....I have to say, the temptation to shift my blog (maybe even host it myself) is almost unbearable.

Methinks I'm going to sit around and see how this pans out.

And selective enforcement of the TOS.....oh deary me.
