Good day,

I realize that there are over thirteen million journals on the site now. This is a fact that has been proudly displayed onwww.livejournal.com for some days now.

I realize that is a lot of journal content to plumb for offensive and/or illegal content.

I understand that you wish to minimize liability on the part of LiveJournal for ( Read more... )

It's a great letter, but you're missing the part where you threaten to pull your advertising.

Just be sure to indicate if you get a reply, even if you don't share its contents with us. I'd be impressed and reassured; right now I don't think 6A gives half a damn about me, simply because I'm merely a member.

Pull my advertising? I'm guessing you're being facetious, as I don't have much advertising by way of LJ except for having links to it on Kismetropolis.

But if I do get a reply, I'll be glad to share it.

Yup, that's me.

I applaud your faith and your optimism, though. I wish I were capable of such at the moment.

I'm not faithful or optimistic, really.

I suffer from a terminal case of Hope Springs Eternal, whether I like it or not.

I've spent six years here, and I hate to have to go.

Beautifully said. Here's hoping it doesn't fall on deaf ears.

Thank you. I hope as well there's someone listening who won't just blow off my letter.

dawnmipb May 31 2007, 03:07:34 UTC

Well done. That is really beautifully written and well reasoned.

paradisacorbasi May 31 2007, 03:20:13 UTC

Thanks. We'll see if it makes any difference.

Fantastic job... Thank you for reminding me of the journals that were NOT deleted.

I'm not a permanent user, and I'm secretly hoping that the number of people whose automatic renewals were turned off is noticable. I'm not sure I'll leave livejournal anytime soon... but I know of no other tangible way to voice my frustration.

I suspect it will take a *long* time to respond to the--thousands, isn't it now?--many individual questions and complaints generated by this particular foulup.
