fandomsecrets | (no subject)

Since people pointed out Saturday isn't enough time to see what LJ is doing with this or about this, moved the potential moving date to New Years' - 1/1/2012.

[Poll #1805208]

The other poll is closed and this one will be open until Dec 31st! You can edit your vote by going here.

As a note, I'm completely willing to either stay or move. Updating the comm is easy enough for me either way.

1 - It's not only about subject lines. Others have written up potential problems better than I could:

2 - For those worried about possibly needing to make DW accounts to comment, if a move happens: you don't need one! OpenID will let you comment as an LJ user (in the same way Facebook users can comment on LJ).

3 - For those worried about missing updates: I can crosspost to LJ to let you know a post is up (with a handy link over to it), I don't mind that (it's like a minute of extra work, no problem) - if the DW move happens though, the comments would be over there.

4 - Apparently, this is what we're getting next year.

5 - I'm aware workarounds are available - but those (or so I hear?) won't stay available for long. Also, those layouts have their own bugs. If someone can actually supply me with workable code that doesn't make long threads unreadable to change the layout, I'll give it a try.

7 - Tried the LJ workaround, give me your thoughts? Also contains links to what FS would look like on DW. Feedback on either/both?

Today's post is up below!

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

you amuse me

also i don't want to move because then i will have to remake all 25 of my alternate accounts and THAT SHIT IS UNACCEPTABLE

YOU DON'T HAVE TO MOVE.

This poll is not about a decision of whether or not everybody using FS should make a mass migration to DW.

This is about whether or not this community. JUST this community. Should host its comment section on DW. While continuing to provide daily links on LJ.

You don't have to move anywhere.

You can stay on Livejournal.

You can do this and still continue to follow FS. You can do this and still continue to comment on FS, both anonymously and with your LJ accounts.

You. Do not. Have to move. If FS moves, there will be no change other than the fact that the cut link will be an offsite link and the comment page would bother fewer people.

Why is this concept so hard to understand?

YOU WOULD NOT HAVE TO MOVE TO DW TO CONTINUE FOLLOWING FS IF IT MOVED.

obviously i would have to move from where i am now, do you think people sit on their computer chairs all day

because they don't

in case you thought that they did

also it would be ugly to be all /LIVEJOURNAL on a site that wasn't livejournal so it would only make sense for organizing purposes to have dreamwidth accounts if fandom!secrets is hosted on dreamwidth

i know that things that involve a higher level of thinking than you're used to are difficult for you to comprehend

but

you must get accustomed to having cognitive functions that extend beyond attempting to discern the answer to the philosophical question that is "1+1"

~~i voted for moving because lol dreamwidth is prettier than livejournal currently is so it would make more sense to move even if i don't want to actually have to move~~

For the love of...THEY'RE 25?

I thought you were prolific enough with only the two you commented in that one thread I answered you...

~~lol, do you even rememer me? xDDD~~

of course i remember you

you were that person who agreed with me on that homestuck thread

and i need lots of alternate accounts how else would i avoid getting banned everywhere for having truthful factsaying truths that only an oracle would say
