Apparently Google+ CAN Mess With Your Android Phone: My Bad
If your G+ profile gets banned or deleted, you lose everything you bought in the Android Market.

So glad I have a pay-go phone.

I'll repeat what I commented on her G+ post: I'm very skeptical about this.

Ummm... I hate to be the one to tell you, but I didn't see it then and it's not there now.

And if Cat deleted a civil comment because she disagreed with it, I'm disappointed.

The comment wasn't on her LiveJournal. G+ is short for Google+. We've been discussing it back and forth there, and ended up agreeing to watch for further reports on the subject.

I second madfilkentist's report. All is cool.

Tracking comments about comments gets confusing even for me, because I post on DW and cross-post to LJ so the posts get comments in two places.

Plus now I'm expecting to be banned from G+ anytime, so I'm doing my posts there as DW/LJ posts that I then post links for on G+... so now there are three places comments might appear.

Sorry about the confusion. I keep intending to gather all comments to Dreamwidth but it's just complicated enough to become an intimidation barrier and even if I did it regularly, "regularly" would be spelled "every month" so not very helpful.

I delete comments that are spam ("Interesting post! Beautiful russian girls here!") immediately ( ... )
