I have split emotions over this whole fiasco. Regardless, it seems the internet generation complains often.

I'll never pay them a penny. About a year and a half ago I complained to them about a journal called 0___0pedophiles friending me. This journal was dedicated to posting names and emails of people that the owner felt were pedophiles, many of which including myself, were yaoi fans; I was told they had the right to friend me and if I didn't like having them on my profile page, I should hide my friends list.

So I sincerly hope Livejournal goes belly up.

The fuss exploded to a hysterical extent, but I'm glad the response sent a message. Livejournal was within their rights to suspend or even delete accounts, sure, but that doesn't mean it's a practice I'm comfortable with on a large scale or without prior explanation.

i think them not seeing them was wrong and i hope now they will LOOK at things before deleting. this will probably change their process of thing for now on hopefully.

well thats cool they could have just deleted all the communites from their site and then cancel the idea to bring them back.

::sighs::<--- still bitter.

But really i'm glad they're trying to fix their error. too many innocent lives- i mean journals were wrongly taken offline
Toshirodragon I remember that- a friend of mine's name was on the journal.

maybe I'd be better saying the internet is having a bad week

LJ not underground enough for you?

Fiasco = entertainment. Still, the wank was fun, but I'm glad it's over. *sigh* Now back to the <s>pseudo-pedo</s> innocence-lover real world

I wonder if people are going to boycott LJ in mass hordes. Not enough to make a financial dent, I'm sure, but yeah.

I think if people are going to boycott LiveJournal, it'd be more because of their recent server problems, not because of a handfull of journals being suspended. Although I might be wrong.

Considering it's about as 'underground' as Blogger and YouTube, I'd say so.
