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:
http://liz-marcs.livejournal.com/267358.html
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. :)

I refuse to remove those interests but if my journal gets suspended or deleted I will blow a fucking gasket.
In a post I read on the issue there was a community deleted or suspended because they had lolita in their name and interests--well, it was a community for discussing Nabokov's Lolita, a fucking novel! A work of fiction! This is ridiculous. I have a basic account but I'm about read to head over to another blog site.
