This is just a test post for now. Have fun with it!

Will be re-importing everything on Jun 2nd.

Comments

[neonvincent]

Decided to join the comm now that it's here on Dreamwidth. For some reason, I never bothered when it was on LJ.

Marking new comments

[tephra]

If you use Greasemonkey with Firefox, or Chrome, you can use this userscript to have new comments marked for you.

[malurette]

To get their tits sucked, maybe?

Re: A handful of usefulish things...

[zellieh]

DW also has a way to "[add] the comment count to entry links. Your browser should display links in a different color if there are new comments since your last visit", (although (IMHO) it could be made more noticeable):

Profile >> Account Settings (top of page, by icon, login button, etc.) >> Display (second tab) >> New Comment Link Indicator (scroll down a bit to find it) >> check the box.

[hornpile]

cool, thanks!

Re: Links to DW fannish comms (& other stuff)

[case]

Could you give me that in a textbox for easier reposting?

[hornpile]

damn. I think the fact that there are already 779 people watching this comm pretty solidly negates all the people saying that fs was going to die. True, it's way less than the number of people watching it on lj but as it's already been said, there's no knowing how many of those accounts are active any more.
/ramble

[case]

I feel the same way, actually. 800ish people is an huge number of active accounts watching a fannish community, especially on DW. It's tiny compared to 14000, but that's 14000 over 5 years, with dead LJs and RP accounts and spambots and stuff - compared to 800 in about two days.

Man, I was expecting like 200-300 (seemed to be about that many people active, + lurkers and people without LJs) and am really surprised at the turnout! I remember FS being active with 80 people, with 10x that number it should be perfectly fine.

[grackle]

I'm so happy you're here!

[hornpile]

it's definitely a good sign that it accumulated that number so quickly! Nobody panic, everyone back to your stations, etc etc.

Re: Links to DW fannish comms (& other stuff)

[zellieh]

If you can give me the textbox code for the size you want, sure!

[naraht]

Welcome!

Re: Links to DW fannish comms (& other stuff)

[(Anonymous)]

Wow. I cannot read that at all. List form would have been better.

Re: Links to DW fannish comms (& other stuff)

[zellieh]

Okay, I found the HTML code for a textbox, and re-ordered the list to try and make it easier to read. Here's hoping it works:

Re: Links to DW fannish comms (& other stuff)

[case]

I just put up a comm rec post here! (I don't know what half of those comms are, or what category they fall in, or I'd do it myself, sob. Sorry.)

Re: Links to DW fannish comms (& other stuff)

[zellieh]

It's okay; I clearly still need to work on the code for the text box (::facepalm::) so at the moment I'll just post the list in a straightforward comment to your post. ::g::

You can also use view=flat to get them in chronological order.

Testing, testing- man, I gotta upload some of my LJ icons here now!

Re: OTPs?

[ladyrogue]

So I must ask.... what fandom are these from?

Re: OTPs?

[tasogare_n_hime]

The Last Exile anime.

for fuck sake, i don't want an account. you're not being helpful, you're being a pretentious dick. round 1 goes to LJ.

Re: Marking new comments

[(Anonymous)]

Eh, I'll miss it but I'm not huge with fiddling with scripts and the like - it certainly wouldn't work on my work computers. I'll just need to pay a bit more attention since i won't be making an account.

[(Anonymous)]

dreamwidth sucks. i can't even fucking bother to figure out what my DW password is.

Re: OTPs?

[femme_androgyne]

Doctor (Third, Fifth, or Eighth)/Master is my long-term dysfunctional OTP.

Also Kate Kane/Renee Montoya and Nightwing/Anything with a Pulse from DC comics.
