I'm sticking around

[puppetmaker]

Knee jerk reactions have been flying all over LJ due to actions/reactions/over reactions of lots of people. I will admit to this action too but given some time to think, I think I'm going to stay here on LJ.

The inital group that started this is finding themselves under a very bright light and thay seem to be scuttling back into the shadows trying to avoid the limelight that is being shown upon them and their activities (some of which really skirt the law).

Now Lj and its owner are trying to sort out what happened and make things rational again after the first knee jerk. It is never going to be as it was but this can be something that will make LJ better in the long run if done right. And I am wiling to give them the benifit of the doubt on this matter.

So there it is. I am going to keep an eye on what is going on around me but I am also going to give things a chance to sort out and see where the lay of the land is now.

Yup. Me too.

I did utilize that cool Backup tool I found during one of the discussions. I'd tried to do that manually for a while, but it just got too difficult to keep up with.

Now at least this way if the whole thing implodes (or I get deleted for whatever reason *grins*) I won't care as much.

I don't have a problem with them doing something to prevent illegal activities. I do have a problem with them being total goobers about the process.

This icon is even funnier to me now though. :D

I did a back up as well because 3 years of a journal should not just go *Poof* and this way I have it for Caroline down the road.

I agree about the goober(ness). Illegal activites are against the law but this went into new strange territory.

I wonder if this will kill HP p0rn on LJ?

[wandereringray.livejournal.com]

*chuckles* Very doubtful. I'm thinking HP p0rn and all the rest is here to stay.

Yes, I'm staying as well - to be honest, I didn't ever seriously consider leaving, and unless most of the people on my friends list left, I'd probably stay...
