NOES.
Um. Apparently, if basic accounts go away, I will get less feedback.
Noes. :/
Hey, you guys unhappy with LJ? Here's a suggestion: Stop posting and leave. Of course, I said that last year, when you were all bitching about the Kiddie Porn being taken away, and you were all complaining and wailing and gnashing your teeth. And yet. You're still all here.
(in penance for talking about fandom being stupid and eye-rollingly dumb, I suppose I should finish fic. sigh)
eta: also, since I just mentioned this to LoQ, it's more than a little insulting to be told paid users provide no content for lj.
Noes. :/

*uses OMGCONSPIRACY icon again*
(actually, apparently, something about censorship and cable vs broadcast tv and disavowing anything outside mainstream america... or something. I was stuck at "you will get less feedback" not to mention "all content is provided y basic users!")

You Fail! *cat macro*
No U!
It's not like if you have a basic account, it's going anywhere. And it's not like there won't be any more free accounts - you just have to look at a couple adds. I started with a Plus account and somehow I survived.

Buh? I mean, I don't have any statistics but I would think the reverse would be more true. I started out with a free account because my plan was to just use it for commenting on fic. *waits for you to stop laughing* Why pay for an account if you're just going to be consuming others' content?
They make not with the sense much.

That could change eventually, though.
I swaer, I'm totally not laughing.
But, yes, I don't know why they insist on saying things like "basic account users create the content LJ people consume", because, um, last I checked, there were actually people reading my lj. Of course, maybe they're not consuming it? (do you need more hot sauce?)

Yeah, this whole thing where everyone wants to move isn't going to work. Not unless someone does another Journalfen...

I'm to the point where I just don't care anymore. I've had this account for 5 years and i'm too lazy to pack up and move somewhere else.

And yeah...there really is no point. No site is ever going to stay exactly the same, people need to get used to that. Besides, LJ is where
I get my pornall my friends are. Starting over would suck.no subject
Starting over would be difficult. It could be done, but you'd have to get everyone on the same service, and interlinked again, and even then, there's no guarantee....

And exactly. Too much trouble, imo.

And even if every fandom just up and migrated, you know that three weeks later there will be moaning and complaining about some GJ or IJ policy.
So let them moan.
