Over at GreatestJournal

[liz_marcs]

Look! I still have my GreatestJournal account.

I'm liz-marcs over there as well.

Dearest SixApart:


You drop dead, too.


Kthnxbi,

A Dissatisfied Customer

P.S. — I'm pre-paid for more than a year, so I'm not disappearing right away, just making arrangements for a permanent move to elsewhere, oh, a year from now.

You gone?

:D:D

People over there are talking to Support to find out what their stance on this is. There's brief discussion about it in the fandomtossed community.

FYI: prepare for the digg effect (http://digg.com/tech_news/Livejournal_suspends_hundreds_of_accounts)

[jetpack-monkey.livejournal.com]

I'm thinking about this, too.

[sunnyd-lite.livejournal.com]

I did the shadow journal there too, sunnyd_lite.

[dawnmipb.livejournal.com]

Mine expires in August. I'm backing up my journal tonight, and I'm thinking about what to do next.

I have a Greatest Journal (same name), but it's empty right now.

Truth is, I've never felt at home here, anyway.

Oh, looks like we made the news: http://news.com.com/Mass+deletion+sparks+LiveJournal+revolt/2100-1025_3-6187619.html?tag=nefd.lede

[phyr-nyt.livejournal.com]

*squeeks like a rat*
just finished makeing a GJ and friending you there. XD

[ever-obsessed.livejournal.com]

I'm setting up an account there as I speak, actually.

[sunfell.livejournal.com]

I'm paid until August. I have a GJ account as well (Sunfell) and have just grabbed my WordPress title, too. That'll be my pro-blog.

Hey, I want to say that I really appreciate your posts about this. Go read what one of my deep-diggers on [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] has discovered about dubyaeffaye:

Yeah- they're religious fanatics. I hope that Six Apart figures out that they've been totally 'jacked by a bunch of domestic terrorists in training.

Looks like they are doing more investigation:

Azalais,

I received your message about these two journals. I will check the reason they were taken down tonight. If they were taken down incorrectly I will sincerely apologize.

It is possible that in a well meaning attempt to protect children some errors were made. It may take a day to get back to you but we will do it ASAP. Thank you for pointing out this issue and explaining your point of view so well.

I'm non_timebo_mala over there. Have friended!

[midnightfae.livejournal.com]

*sighs*

The number of people I know that are considering a move is going to give me a headache, I fear. Many people, like yourself, and the above noted quantum_gazebo are considering a move - people I follow avidly. That being said, half of my f'list isn't involved or even really aware of this - and will not be moving.

I use LJ, more than anything, for keeping in touch with friends, many of them dear, RL friends in other parts of the country. This means I'll need to be keeping up with two journal sites. I can't just dump LJ (an example - a friend whose wedding I was in, is not moving), but I can't just let half my friendslist wander off either.

This is a dilemma to say the least. Regardless, I should probably go see if I can snag my username over at GJ, in case of mass exodus.

[1-mad-squirrel.livejournal.com]

I renewed for a year in March. Crapity crap crap.

* heads over to check out GreatestJournal *

[diachrony.livejournal.com]

I'm diachrony over at GJ as well and I've added you. I'd like to keep my same f'list as much as possible. Hopefully GJ is userfriendly and nonbuggy enough to stick with (my understanding is it keeps losing folks' userpics, but I hope nothing worse than that).

[peppery-lime.livejournal.com]

i'm peppery_lime over on gj. thanks to that big, fat fuck you article, i'll be over there by the end of 2007, just in time for my time to expire. ~headdesk~

[red-xera.livejournal.com]

Do you mind if I friended you over at GJ? You seem like a pretty nifty person.

Oh and before I forget, my GJ is steampunk_. Anyone here is welcome to friend me.

[cethlenn.livejournal.com]

I'm at GJ as cethlenn , feel free to friend....

Has this whole thing been slashdotted yet?

[tazeredtiger.livejournal.com]

I have the same username (tazeredtiger) at GJ, and I just added you if that's okay. Also added you here on LJ, to keep up with updates. I believe this whole thing is messed up.

[slycat-blaze.livejournal.com]

Hey! I'm afraid I've only been updated today with the LJ issue, since I was away on vacation. Your site really helped with all that information, and I really am grateful. For the same reasons, I have also created a GJ account. LJ gives me the creeps now.

I have several accounts, so I find myself rarely updating my LJ (I use my Xanga account usually). And ever since I couldn't fix my LJ RSS feed to my other account (and therefore, felt conscious about posting with my RL friend's eyes watching, I just stopped updating altogether. But I was really fond of LJ, and will miss it greatly. Thanks for the GJ link! ^_^ (Can I add you there?)

I hope this issue will be resolved soon. ^_^

[agilebrit.livejournal.com]

I've created a mirror journal over there, and friended you there as well as here, which I should have done long ago. :) I don't know if I'll be making The Big Move or not, but it's always good to have a backup.

[cupcakemonster.livejournal.com]

I applaud you, and I'm doing the same. I'm gonna stick around for this 7-day-action business, and I might come back if they stop acting like the soul-less corporation they are.

I guess it's to be expected -- well, if I don't like it, I can leave, right?

[h4nselel.livejournal.com]

Well, the time really sucked to sign up for a LJ account. ^^

But GJ gets its revenue from advertisers too...

[first-spike.livejournal.com]

Just a couple of observations really.

First is just to point out that GJ is substantially funded by revenue from advertisers (it's in their FAQ). I mention it because that's the stick the "warriors" have been holding over SixApart's corporate head.

Second thing is, if the "warriors" don't take an interest in GJ and the other alternatives after all the publicity they've had around LJ, I'd be somewhat surprised.

Unless someone out there knows better (which is entirely possible).

[othercat.livejournal.com]

Meep! (no, don't go?) at least keep this lj as a free account, to update fic?
