Look, it's got nothing to do with what I want. Personally, I don't approve of censorship. But the fact of the matter is that Six Apart are running a business and when push comes to shove, they have to think of the bottom line. It's far safer to piss off a group of people who will only go and find somewhere else to post than it is to alienate another core section of their userbase - minors and the parents of minors. Like it or not, there are children on Livejournal, and it's far better from a business perspective to piss off a few fans doing things that most people outside fandom would find rather dubious anyway then be seen as a safe haven for CHILD MOLESTORS. That's not being judgmental, that's not being a stupid fuck - it's just the way the world works. Sorry.

Ultimate super absolute agreement.

What, have LJers never used teh internets before? I thought everyone was used to The Unwashed Masses freaking out over any miniscule sliver of a hint that there's TEH SMEX. And making your point on LJ of all place isn't going to change this general opinion... it just makes fandom look like a bunch of naive folks.

OH MY GOD

You people are rational and intelligent and it is amazing

Every time I see a "LJ Strikethrough '07" icon/post/what have you I want to kick someone in the throat.

It is a pity we're too ashamed to use our real names.
