I recently re-joined LJ even though I knew that there would be ads splattered all across the place. For some crazy reason, I missed the site after being away from it for roughly 4 years (blame it on the drama that always seems to ensue on there), so I made another account. It remains to be seen whether I keep it or not; LJ's ridiculous decision to get rid of the ad-free basic account was dumb, in my opinion. :S
