Gone, but not forgotten. Or something.

So what does this do with the plan to make wereadshite a community? Still happening? Or being abandoned?

thete1 November 18 2003, 04:05:33 UTC

Currently abandoned, but I'm not deleting the journal *quite* yet. It may be needed in the future, project re-started, etc.

A community would take almost all the pressue off the maintainer--I man, if the individual recs siets could just post updates themselves, woudln't that solve the big problem of time management?

thete1 November 18 2003, 05:20:57 UTC

Yes, it really would. But in order to do a community, I have to delete every single freaking post in wereadshite. And doing just *one month* of that took all day. All. Day.

So. Thistle has saved me, and her lj is now the recs lj as far as I'm concerned. There'll be time for better choices later.

recrainbow? Also not a community.

Which means that if something happens to keep Thistle offline, we end up with the same problem we had here.

thete1 November 18 2003, 05:13:34 UTC

Yep, I know. Which is why I'm still working on wereadshite. If anything happens? I'll be back. No worries, k?

It's just that Thistle is doing what I really have no time for at the moment.

I replied to jacquez's concerns by email. My job requires me to be online, plus I have two non-paying jobs which keep me online every day. Other than the rare power outage, I've not missed a day online in more than four years.

I said to jacquez and I'd say to anyone else: If I ever could not maintain the group, I would either hand over the reins or make it a community. I wanted to take over to keep the group alive, not drive it into the ground.

I've got nothing but faith in you, babe. And god *damn*, but I appreciate this.

Thanks for the heads-up, Te, and also thank you for all the time you have put in to keeping this journal updated. Be well, and best wishes. :)

Thanks, babe.

And HEE! I love that icon.
