Oh no doll! You too? A couple weeks ago I had a crazy bitch who had full view of my old posts and reposting them. And someone was leaking my posts.. What is wrong with people? *hugs*
A bizarre form of flattery perhaps? That someone cares enough about your ramblings to share them with others, who apparently care, too?
*feels a little insulted that no one has done that to me yet*
Good luck with the house! When sis and I bought our house we really really wanted it, but there was another person whose offer they accepted first (MEH!) however their financing ended up falling through, and we got the house anyhow. HaHA! So don't despair. If you're meant to have it, you will.
Ugh, I'm sorry that's happening to you. I have had some bizarre LJ encounters as well. Over the past few weeks I've had a sudden rush of friends requests. It makes me pretty sure that I'm being discussed somewhere. Which amuses me more than anything else. If anyone other than my friends are interested in my LJ posts about cats, food, grocery shopping, gym workouts, the latest books I've read, and the occasional bitch-fest about car breakdowns or finances ... whatever. These folks clearly don't have much else going on in their lives. LOL
Like you wouldn't notice the influx of friend requests? And where in the world would people be talking about you?
I found out where I was being talked about and practically laughed myself into a pee fit. Jeff just rolled his eyes and said something to the effect of, "So, [they're] so miserable [they] need to make all this shit up so everyone can feel sorry for [them]? Fucking hell, how miserable [they] must be if [they] spend this much time reading your entries and posting about US!" And then he said something about being flattered that they care enough to go looking through my stuff.
Meh. Unlike the person in question reading my stuff, I don't lie and I don't need to lie about my life to gain sympathy from people. I also don't have to constantly write about how wonderful my life is. Jeff says they do it to convince themselves. That made me laugh.
Aaaah, such is life.
I'm glad to see you again. I've missed just sitting here and chatting with all of you!

Probably someone's journal or a Duran Duran message board where a certain group of slash fan fiction writers have gathered. About a year and a half ago, I announced in my slash community duran_stories that I was going to begin moderating the incoming stories for awhile to make sure they fairly well-written and followed basic standards such as the use of paragraph breaks, punctuation, etc. I never said that I expected professional-quality writing, as I know quite well that most fan fic authors are not professional writers.
Good grief, you would have thought I'd suggested tossing puppies into a deep fryer. Several writers and readers made a huge issue of "free speech". Hmmm. Free speech means that you can go out in the public village square, put up a soapbox, and talk to your heart's content. But in a community that is owned by someone, the owner gets to make the rules. Not to mention the fact that duran_stories has been a paid community for the past 4 years and not one of the "free speakers"

Locked or not, it's still visible to whoever wants to make it available.
