Migrants to IJ, 2007

[Lol, omg, love that icon, lol]

I dunno. I actually didn't think it was too awful bad at all. LJ has a vision of the kind of service it wants to create/maintain, and has put together a set of policy guidelines reflecting that in a fairly clear way.

You definintely gotta give them points for "short and sweet."

It's also obvious they don't wanna lose that chunk of users who compose "fandom," and are into fanfic, etc - even the kind that portrays adult-child sex. I really think they've done their best in these policies to have their cake and eat it, too.

Ya gotta give a tip of the hat to any business that manages to do that - and the tens of thousands of "these kinds" of users who remain at LJ are evidence of the same.

Complete lulz at the friending bit, too!
