So, the flag thing
Nov. 30th, 2007 03:31 pmIs it me, or is there less and less incentive to stay on LJ all the time? I'm beginning to think that Wordpress is looking very fine right now.
Since everyone is giving their opinion, here is mine :)
Ability to flag your own stuff = a reasonably good idea, though not really better than having ratings and summaries and then a cut tag.
Ability to shop your neighbours = turning LJ into more of a police state than it was, fostering wank, paranoia and all kinds of divisive things. Emphatically *not a good thing*. In fact, did I mention I'm liking the look of Wordpress?
LJ deciding I didn't want to look at anything adult without telling me = infuriating in the literal sense.
Seriously, this paranoia about 'adult' content - by which I presume they don't mean discussion of politics - is getting ridiculous. Do these people not have sex? Do they not understand that their children will grow up to have sex? Do they not understand that their terror of sex is very probably doing a lot more damage to their children than any NC-17 fic could do? Obviously not.
