As a way of keeping track of you all...

[Poll #1034231]

I'm not leaving, although I'd kind of like to. I don't know what to do-- I'm feeling very depressed about lj, specially because Abe Hassan (aka burr86 and livejournal employee) thinks now is a good time to publicly mock the fans.

The entry with his comment was eventually deleted by the community mod, but there's a screenshot here, and an article about it here. I was really pissed off about it yesterday, but this morning my expression matches the one in my icon. I am feeling rather blank about the whole thing.

I am so disappointed in LiveJournal right now. It's true that they're the best journaling site out there, but they're still not worth this sort of disrespect and harassment. I have no idea why they think they can treat their users like this and get away with it. The fact that they are treating not only free users but paying customers in this fashion is absolutely unconscionable, all moral questions of the value of porn aside.

I am under the same nick on both JF and GJ, and there are links to both journals at the top of my LJ! I'm not leaving LJ for the moment, but I'm branching out and looking at what my other options might be. I certainly won't be renewing my paid account when it expires in November.

Thanks for letting me know!

I think a lot of people won't be renewing and hopefully that will hit them hard. It looks like it's really the fans who pay for journals and for extra icons, the people who use lj heavily.
