LJ downtime

[lady_karelia]

Now that the abomination that is livejournal these days has returned, I can actually post. And in the meantime, I've forgotten all about what I was going to post. *snerk*

I have until December before renewing the paid account, and I'm seriously wanting out of here. The only thing that keeps me right here is fandom, but I can see it diminishing further and further, seeing how the holier-than-though sixapart are hypocritical in purging communities. They say one thing, then do something else entirely. I find that rather off-pissing.

I know there is greatestjournal and insanejournal, but I just don't find them so enticing. And myspace? Oh, forget about it. Not interested in pr0n, and that seems to be all you get over there.

Any chance the fandom can get together, unite like the Houses of Hogwarts never did, and buy out LJ?

I don't think there will be other places than LJ... I think it's LJ or nothing, because people don't like change and if they are forced to leave, they might not go somewhere else.

But LJ getting worse is the main reason why I didn't buy a permanent account, (7 years on LJ, I'm not sure at all!!!) but I also know I did renew my paid account two months earlier because the Dollar has been so weak that I saved a few euros!!

I hope it's not a matter of LJ or nothing. People may not like change, but fandom is important to a lot of people, and if we can't voice our thoughts here, then we may want to change in order to be able to do so.
