mood: annoyed
greatestjournal's gone screwed up again. For those of you who still has journals there DO NOT try to upload icons for you will lose all but ten of them. Plus they once again locked out new journals.

Wow. I guess ij is the standard for journaling sites.

At this point, it seems to be the case. However, Scribblit isn't open yet and I am betting that they'll be IJ's main competition. They seem nice, are 18+ only, and they have a nice design. Also, prices will likely be similar to IJ.

CJ, so far, is a bad value at $75 for a permenent account, technical problems, and an owner that seems intent on sabotaging herself from a PR standpoint. IMO, not worth it and still a step above LoJo.

Still at this point anyplace is better then gj, even blurty.

Have you seen gj's main page? It states now that it only allows 10 icons. So it looks permanent. http://www.greatestjournal.com/

Dang! And seriously about Blurty -- I mean, is anyone even actively running it?

idk. -shrugs- lol I'm just stating that anyplace is better then gj at this point. GJ is kinda a sinking ship.

I'm surprised they even changed it all. For a long time they left the front page the same even though we were progressively losing features.

The 10 icon thing is starting to make me think that we only temporarily got 100 back so people would shut up. And honestly I don't see why system can't try to focus on fixing the coding so he can do a purge, rather than consistently doing things that seem to make no difference other than causing people to be like "OMFG ASSHOLE HOW DARE YOU"

I signed up for CJ about 2 days before the server crash and today I attempted to signed in to find that my entire account was gone. Some of my friends lost entries and stuff too. CJ looks like it could be a cool site, but I was disappointed because out of all the journal sites I've used they have always made sure that entries and accounts weren't lost even when there are server problems.

It's called backup tape. Most sysadmins who know what they're doing run the daily on a site where data is being uploaded constantly.
