Yeah I understand about having so much history here - lj is the blog I have been able to maintain the longest, and GJ wouldn't even exist if it weren't for livejournal so lj must be doing something right.
I am going to stick it out for now and see what Livejournal has to say about the situation. Maybe they will take it all back and apologize. I think that would be best. They certainly need to make it up to their users. I would hate to see it come down to a line in the sand, not before we can figure out a way to cross-interact w/LJ & GJ friends (that would be awesome!)
The craziest part is that it is all based on interests - they are just words! They could be inside jokes or just random words from a dictionary. They cannot be taken at face value. I can understand if they are used to pinpoint illegal journals, but looks like most weren't even investigated. If they had actually looked at your journal they wouldn't have deleted your interests, and the same goes for most of the other journals/comms affected.
This is just totally psycho.
And Kate is a loser. =P Well, I will miss reading her posts...she did update often enough that I knew she was still alive. If she comes back please let me know so I can re-friend her. I tend to migrate to other sites/journals/screennames every once in a while.
