That's so odd. :/ Sometimes when someone wrote your name wrong it can appear with a strikethrough but I've never heard of it randomly looking so for no reason. Huh.

So basically no help here. :(

What community was it?

I'd noticed it on Slythindor100's LDWS week 2 prompt post - but now that I look at it, the usernames for all eight participants are struck through.

I had a look around after making this post, and saw that hd_prophet tagged me last night and it appears normal.

It's just weird!

Oh my god! :)))

*HUGS* I'm sorry I laughed a bit. No, nothing is happening, the mods at slythindor100 put a strikethrough the participants that have already submitted their drabbles for the week. It's something they do manually with the strike tag and has nothing to do with LJ doing it on their own. PHEW, because with LJ you really never know! :)

Sorry. Raven, for giving you a scare. As Capitu said: we are striking out the names of the participants that have submitted their drabble. :)

No worries!

I was mortified when I realised that's all it was! XD

We probably should put a check mark after the name or something. Strikethrough is always scary.
