THE MOST IMPORTANT MODPOST EVER OMG

[united-mods.livejournal.com]

Hello, it's Kururu here. I've waited for a go-ahead from Kibi, but I haven't gotten one - and we need to do a poll on this, ASAP. Also, I've had this icon for ages. SO I HAVE DECIDED TO USE IT. It's a valid representation of how I feel Livejournal is this time of year. Except IDK...[Poll #1805479]


Also, as a Christmas/Holiday gift as well as because of this bullshit? NO ACTIVITY CHECK THIS MONTH!! And if we move, there won't be activity check for next month either - as we get used to the changes and all.



P.S: Rayman Origins is awesome. You should buy it. Totes.

t-that first vote is mine, btw.
i'm allowed to vote, right? with my opinion? I sure hope so.

Yes, I do have a paid. I'm okay with abandoning them all - after all, they did auto-activate autopayment for good old Scott Pilgrim. Awesome_Scott. Perhaps I should play Scott if we move. I am, quite literally, the Scott_Pilgrim of Dreamwidth.

[urnewkingbitch.livejournal.com]

I'm okay with it. I can always get another paid/premium on DW, after all. Not to mention the customer treatment is getting to be a bit bullshitty for me, so. :/

[emmet]

Yeah, that's the bullshit which is really making me wanna move, tbh. I can customise this stuff to stop headaches, but I can't customise away the bullshit customer service.

[urnewkingbitch.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I could deal with this if they weren't being douchebags to us. DW seems much more friendly and open to our concerns.

[emmet]

Exactly! I've also RPed on DW before, and the biggest thing I noticed was how awesome the news posts were, and how open it was! :D I like that - that's also why I love Telltale Games and wish to work there in the future.

Originally, this RP was going to be made there, in the original thoughts of Kibi and I - but we decided against it, due to LJ being more popular.

[urnewkingbitch.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm all for leaving, but if we ultimately stay, then that's fine, too. /shrugs DW doesn't seem all that different from LJ, really, except for being nicer.

[emmet]

Yeah, and if this poll wants to stay, we'll stay. I don't wanna make you guys angry, after all! Because this is a community of a few friends.

[breathandshadow.livejournal.com]

H'mmmm...I'm not sure exactly how to vote, to be honest. I'll admit one of my only problems with the new layout, subject lines missing aside, is that I got major eye pains first few hours reading through it. That's died down, and I'm RPing elsewhere with no problem, but...needs of the many outweigh the hyperadaptability of one, so either way I'd be cool.

[emmet]

As I mentioned... somewhere above or below, this poll is gonna run for a bit. So think it over! The pains in me also died down - that is, after this layout caused my computer to bluescreen four times in one day.

Also I got your PM and replied to it. :3

[noplaidshirt.livejournal.com]

Hmm, before I cast my vote... LJ seems like it's actually trying to fix things? Maybe we should hold off till around this time next week, just to see what they do. I'm fine with staying or going even though I still think DW's layouts/profile capacities are hideous //shallow, personally, so I'll see where we are in a little bit.

[emmet]

Even if they do change, which I doubt from things I've seen before here and stuff - their customer service is the huge reason. But if it does magically get fixed with the Christmas spirit, then IDK what to do. Especially with the future changes planned too...

This poll, however, is planned to run until early next year at the least, though. Week or two. So you has time to wait and see! c:

[noplaidshirt.livejournal.com]

Is anything else changing besides the homepage?

Mmkay! In the meantime, can we keep posting on this comm?

[emmet]

Everything is changing - every single page.

And, yeah, we can keep on posting here until a desision is made! If there is a close, however, I would make a new thread - and most likely, then the planned mini-event would appear and let us post until the comm import is finished. If it isn't already finished.

[noplaidshirt.livejournal.com]

Ah, yuck. That sounds unfortunate. ;;

Alright! The more I hear about this change thing, the less I like it, but one can only hope things will actually turn out okay. Basically, I'm cool with whatever everyone else wants to do at this point--I already backed up Paprika's account onto DW. uwu

[emmet]

Yeah. It is. It really is.

Okay, I should have made the poll have a FOLLOW THE MAJORITY option. Hm, oh well. I can have a document alongside this.
(I've got everybody backed up too. Emmet and Dragonite have different usernames, though. I like the name Dagronite for Dragonite okay because Homestar Runner nerd. And Emmet is Sharkgrin. Just because.)

[noplaidshirt.livejournal.com]

I am the sheep, it's me. :y

As a plus, though, the username I wanted for a character I'm apping soon will fit on DW.

[emmet]

Ooh? Who is it? (I am seriously thinking of bringing my Scott Pilgrim in if we move, because of my username for him and all. )

[noplaidshirt.livejournal.com]

He's from a fairly obscure (sadly) video game series called Golden Sun, and he's basically a blue-haired N with magical water powers who has the distinction of being a competent/actual crown prince to the throne of the fantasy equivalent of ancient Thailand. He even has daddy issues, too! Not that he knows it, yet, but...

[emmet]

Oh! Somebody from Golden Sun! I've wanted to try those games for a while, did you know? But I've been busy with other things. Plus I prefer handheld RPGs except for Pokemon if I can play them on the move and that means buying stuff........

[noplaidshirt.livejournal.com]

//casually slips you links to ROMs because they are the best games and everyone should play them so that my life does not become Naoko laughing/crying (almost) alone in the Golden Sun fandom

[emmet]

pfft, i could go to demonoid myself

perhaps i will

tomorrow

as more christmas stuff

perhaps

if this old thing won't crash while playing

[noplaidshirt.livejournal.com]

EXCELLENT

[emmet]

PERHAPS IT'LL BE SOMETHING TO PLAY WHILE MY FAMILY ARE PLAYING LEGO BATMAN TWO PLAYER AND NOT THE EXCELLENT GAME RAYMAN ORIGINS

YES

IT IS A PLAN

[noplaidshirt.livejournal.com]

A PLAN THAT EVERYTHING IS GOING ACCORDING TO.

[pokeball-afro.livejournal.com]

I am super unfamiliar with Dreamwidth but I'm willing to make the switch if everyone else wants to! /sheep answer

[emmet]

Really should have put an 'I'M A FLAFFY' option in that poll.

Also look at this!

[pokeball-afro.livejournal.com]

LOL IT IS BEAUTIFUL

[emmet]

I FOUND IT WHILE SEARCHING FOR PONY CROSSOVER STUFF

AND KNEW

TO SHOW YOU

...why do i wanna make a quick 'everybody is now poni' meme now

to also show off my bitty grimsley unicorn icons

[cuteponytail.livejournal.com]

Ah, I think I'll not vote - because I'm honestly fine with either staying or moving! I don't mind packing up and I'll gladly follow you guys if you do, but I'm not against staying either.

[emmet]

Alright!
/opens text document to keep track of all the flaffy :3

[purrsnickety]

Voting for a move! That said, there's no way I would leave you all if we didn't haul over~

[emmet]

Alllrighty then, I've got it noted down~!!

Also yes we don't want to leave anybody behind because that would be sad and sobworthy.

[kattobingu-ore.livejournal.com]

-stretch- Well, I haven't heard of DW until now, but if nothing's lost then just making an account isn't a problem..~ Besides, I don't have much a right to refuse being as new as I am to both the RP and LJ in general; not to mention, no knocking until I try..~ Maybe I'll like DW even more~

[silentlyknight.livejournal.com]

I am good with either option really. I don't have a preference, it's where the heart is, not where the apparently controversial blog site is. Or something like that.

[shizuo_heiwajima]

I wouldn't mind either staying or moving, though I did vote for move ^^ I checked out dreamwidth recently and it does have a very old LJ feel, which I like. The default layout there doesn't strain my eyes and they do seem nicer there as well. :3 But I wouldn't mind it either way ^^
