femmequixotic, the moderator for
pornish_pixies, has been desperately asking LJ/6A to answer her questions regarding how their TOS will be applied to that community. They have, to date, ignored her, although that community is a known target in their newly revised anti-obscenity stance.
In another effort to get answers, she is posting
An Open Letter to LiveJournal and Six Apart. She has requested that this letter be linked far and wide in an attempt to gain LJ/6A’s attention.
It is a well thought out and reasoned letter asking for clarification of their policies. The fact that LJ/6A continually refuses to answers their users’ questions is quite troubling.
Btw, I have accounts under the name
daylyn in GJ, IJ, and JF, although I haven’t done anything other than establish the accounts. I plan to back up my LJ and create copies in these various places in the next few days. Feel free to friend in any of those places if so inclined.

Date: 2007-08-09 03:14 am (UTC)As for JF, I really don't know. I signed up for free when they had one of their brief signing periods. Thus, sadly, I don't have any invites, or I would offer you one. I really don't know that much about JF other than it's supposed to be fan run and has issues with its servers (and it's the home for Fandom Wank and other wank communities, which I really don't care one way or the other about).
I, too, wish LJ would stop acting like idiots, but I fear that they won't. *sigh* What to do, what to do?

Date: 2007-08-09 06:59 am (UTC)I think I'll be avoiding JF then. I don't much like wank and I'm certainly not signing up to a journaling site that sounds as if it promotes it :S
Hopefully all this is just stays precaution, I don't want to have to leave LJ.
