This is complete madness. I can't believe there has been no official response from Livejournal yet; and the fandom_counts community is terrifying in its numbers. (Granted, not all individual users, but still... it's almost at sixteen thousands uses, two hours ago it was fourteen thousand.
This is so totally internet history. I'm amused, horrified, and absolutely awed all in one fell swoop.
The LJ servers are not robust. xD; There must be thousands to millions more clicks right now because of the insanity, I would not be surprised if LJ went down in the near future.
I can understand the not notifying about the takedowns right before they happened, but if having things such as incest or rape in your interests was illegal by the TOS, that should have been more clearly outlined in the TOS and the FAQ. Yes, we're all playing in Livejournal's sandbox but before yesterday we all had a trust in them that they would do whatever they could to work with us. That clearly is no longer the case.
I'm considering moving to GJ but I have so much history here ... plus the Firefox widget doesn't work for GJ. xD; We'll see what happens over the next couple weeks in the grand scheme of things, as well as on my friendslist. If most of the people I know go elsewhere, then what's the point in staying anyway?
I've not talked to Kate in forever. Tor told me it was because she never updated it anymore, which makes me sad because we could at least contact her through it if all else failed. That's her prerogative, I guess. Make me v. sad, though.
