So Dreamwidth will always be paid? Not just in this beta phase? That's kind of weird for a networking site...
Anyway, I'm usually a lurker and followed this com here from the old lj account but while I do have an lj account of my own I don't have IJ and really don't keep up with all the different networking services... And have been posting here anonymously (the little that I did post anyway...) so I would kind of feel that as a lurker and occasional poster I'd feel weird bothering someone for a special invite code.
What was I saying... right, so I agree that Dreamwidth with it's paying accounts does seem to not be very inviting to new members or to some old ones (or old lurkers) that are getting tired having too many accounts on different social networking sites and that might cause the comm to lose some of the members (or lurkers) in the move.
