Give me all your DW names...

I'm seeing posts/rumors about in the Spring LJ will do away with all paid accounts and will move entirely to being a Russian/Cyrillic based thing.

I have a lot of people/communities I only have here & don't have on DW & I want to fix that, pronto!

I never thought I'd have to do this, but I'm doing it right now... What's really funny is that my LJ basically exists so that I can share other people's posts and to write stuff I want no-one else to read... LIKE A REAL LIFE JOURNAL... maybe I should buy myself a paper journal and be done with it. Will send you my Dreamwidth the moment I have it all set up...

I'm Rainbow there, too.

I pretty much crosspost from there and scroll (which takes very little time now) here 1-2/day.

I wonder what will happen to perm accts; Bonnie got this oen way back when...

One of the links I followed went to this: http://lj-releases.livejournal.com/79480.html?thread=10024568#t10024568 which says (noting further down it's a response to a Support ticket)
"Thank you for your inquiry. We are not cancelling paid accounts. This is a case of a Russian comment being poorly translated by auto-translator systems. While changes will be made to account levels next year, paid/perm accounts are not being canceled. Paid/perm accounts will become a sort of 'professional/elite' account type with a new name, but no one will lose any features or money on their purchased time. These accounts will in fact gain additional features over what they have now. "

I'm at topaz119 on DW, too--I cross-post almost all the time now.
