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. :)

What'd you think?

The latest news entry is up to 68 PAGES of comments. O.o

My first reaction? WTF!!??!!
What an extreme over reaction - and what about TOS stating that there will be steps taken before the final decision being to delete a journal/comm?
Apparently it doesn't apply anymore.

Above all that warrior whatever website is not only scary (as the LJ result atest too) but STUPID! Announcing how you're going to get things deleted and all that - way to warn the actual criminals.

'Cause if I was a criminal? I'd be keeping track of such sites to stay ahead of 'em, if they're going to be foolish enough to telegraph their moves.
