FRIENDS ONLY

Mar 09, 2011 00:25

Hey,

Just a note to say that from now on, I'm f-locking my journal. It's purely for precautionary reasons like people having problems with bots and Fandomwank etc, so I thought it was only sensible to protect myself from that.

Just comment on this entry if you want to friend me.

Thanks, electrogirl09.

It's the safest option, I think. I f-locked my journal years ago, just to feel a wee bit more secure. Bots were just becoming a problem then and I didn't want to be archived on Google, which I thought (and still do) was too intrusive.

F-locking is no guarantee of security or privacy but I think it makes those of us who f-lock feel a little better.

Yeah, just want to feel a little safer to be honest and if their f-locked then hopefully they won't come up when you search for rps on google? That's what I'm hoping anyway, I feel a bit exposed with them just being public, 'cause some people hate rps so you know, open to abuse.

Like swizwi, i'll come out of the shadow because i really enjoyed your fic so far and i'd like to read more if possible:-) Friend me?

I hate fandomwanks, there's a lot of people who f-lock their journal these days and you're right to do so.

I just started to read your John/Scott fic on the barrowman_gill community. I am completely obsessed with Scott and very picky about what fanfic I like, and I loved how you wrote Scott and your general writing style. Can you friend me, please, so I can read more?

Thank you, your praise is VERY appreciated, I'm still quite nervous about writing rps as some people despise it but people seem to like it so far so I will continue :) and yep I've added you back :D
