Give LiveJournal Just One More Chance!

Just kidding.

The latest smooth move by 6A/SUP (no more accounts without ads unless you pay up) put me in a nostalgic mood.

I've summarized LiveJournal's greatest customer service disasters, going back to April 2005.

Remember Nipple Gate!

It's a history lesson of fail.

IJ has been adding 1,000 new accounts a day since December. :D

The vast majority of LJ users still do not know about "no more basic accounts." The first post in LJ news to allude to it was extremely misleading; the post in news yesterday was somewhat straightforward. But very few LJ members look at news. They will find out about it when they try to create another account, or when they tell their friends they can get a basic account -- and find they can't.
Probably most people will just shrug and ask what the big deal is about having ads. They won't even consider the ethics involved behind making such a change without even informing users. I can't believe they haven't even made an official announcement! This is such typical LJ behavior. I swear that site is just a gulag.
