Thank you, lj-staff!

Demonstrating their great customer service & ethics, LJ staff not only worked extremely hard to get things back up and running as quickly & smoothly as possible after the recent power outage, they also now offer a free 14-day extension to all paid account holders inconvenienced by the power outage

Yes indeed! This extension works really well for me, since my renewal will now fall within my February (post-pay-day) budget...

Y'know, I didn't even know there had been a problem until I saw so many of my LJ friends going on about it.

It can't have been very much since I was completely unaware of it and it was Business as usual on friday when I left work and business as usual on Monday when I returned to work.

I wonder why so many people are all over the place about it.

It sure made catching up on the week-end's postings easy, as it did knock LJ out for most of that time, so folks had trouble adding new entries. I guess folk who were otherwise occupied over the weekend will only have noticed that side effect. I did like the comments in the little animated icon katyhh posted amusing.... ;)

It had LJ down for most of the weekend, which naturally doesn't affect folks like you, who only post during the week. Personally, I had no problems just living with it - but this is a rather nice touch by the LJ folks, especially given that the fault/problem was not theirs, but their ISPs.

Grump!

But for those of us with permanent accounts, they refuse to add two weeks to the end of eternity ... :-(

... so we get nothing for our inconvenience ...

Where did you see this announced? I've got most of the LJ business and admin communities on my flist now, and I haven't seen this.

Thanks for the heads-up! =:o}
