*sigh*

Management royally sucks sometimes. I say that about work, and now I say it about LJ. I'm sure most everyone has already heard about the deleted journals drama, but if not here's one link:

This is actually the third or fourth post on the matter, and she links to the earlier ones on there as well. She also links to the latest news article, the requests for an LJ statement start on page 6 and currently are up to page 23 or 24.

What's crazy is that I do think getting rid of actual pedophile communites is a decent thing, but they didn't carry it out well at all. Far too many non-criminal people and journals have been affected, and who's to say that the next purge will actually target criminal actions. Or who defines those criminal actions. If they really did delete all those journals based on an interest search, that's just way too vague. There's lots of interests that have at least a double meaning, and if they managed to delete an abuse-survivor community or individual, then they obviously aren't looking for context. It's appalling and disturbing.

God. Oh, OOPS. Watch out, the anti-religious people will be calling next.

Edit: haha! The Killers are on the radio. Whatever their new one is, but it does seem like funny timing. :)

Just info

I'm just posting this because I do not want to write to LJ at this point. In theory, all the comments are going to the one person who last made the news post, and she could be off today. After all, it is my day off. So I'll wait and see what happens in the next few days. But if nothing happens and I do make the decision to drop down to basic or leave, I want to mail LJ a physical letter. It's easy enough to ignore a bunch of emails, but perhaps a letter detailing the loss of income (my main account, and occasionally the communities I maintain so I can make modifications, as well as the occasional gift) to them would make some sort of impact. Or at least make me feel better. LOL.
