What are people doing in the aftermath?

[norwich36]

So, my friends, what are you doing in the aftermath of the Great LJ Strikethrough of 2007? I'm a little torn, myself. My faith in LJ has been shaken enough that I'm probably not going to buy a permanent account, but other than that...I'm just not sure. In addition to my greatestjournal account, due to the persuasions of bop_radar and huzzlewhat I now have accounts at multiply and insanejournal, respectively, though multiply seems a little too...myspaceish or something, to me, so I doubt I'll actually be doing anything over there, and may actually delete that account. (I'm norwich36 everywhere).

What is everyone else doing?

Oh, and here are a couple funny links related to the great strikethrough: I absolutely adore this person's profile, revised to clarify that she doesn't necessarily condone all her interests. And this is a funny (and image-heavy) link to some of the creativity that came out of the fan protests.

And join fandom_counts, if you haven't already. Over 30,000 fans in less than two days! And seperis encourages community owners to add "fandomcommscount" to your comm interests, so we can get a count of fandom communities too.

Re: Permanent account here

That's a very good point about other sites also being subject to the same pressure. And I've seen other permanent account holders give the same advice you did, *not* to buy one because you lose your influence that way. It's a good point--you can't threaten to withhold payments or anything if something goes wrong in the future.
