Please consider not doing LJ idol. The person who runs it once had a topic that required people to mock a mental illness. When called on it she said that these people "don't suffer" as if she got to decide who was suffering and who was not.

Please show me where he posted this topic. I will tell you I've been doing this for 3 seasons and I've never once seen Gary (who is a man not a woman) post such a topic or talk in such a way. I'm not saying you're wrong but I've never seen this post nor can I find it when I searched when I saw you refer to this on other people's posts. So if you want people to consider this, please provide proof so that we can really see what you are talking about.

Here's my entry and the replies I got from it for the topic.

"What does narcissism have to do with me?" - That's the topic I found that Gary would have posted related to your entry.

I don't see how this is mocking an illness but providing a writing prompt to write what you want. Me, I would have written about my aunt and my experiences with her as she has narcissistic personality disorder which is different than being narcissistic. Nowhere in your post does Gary [the person who runs this] respond to you or say "people don't suffer." The closest I can find is that someone else commented that "i wouldn't worry about offending people with narcissism." That's not the person who runs this - that is a reader who read your work. I also then went to look in the work rooms because someone had mentioned to you to talk to Gary in a work room - I don't see any such comment from Gary so I'm really am even more confused by your post.

I'm glad to see you back! Although, I really have no idea how Second Chance works, part of me kinda wanted to be eliminated before it happened so I'd have another chance, so now I'm just hoping I don't get eliminated next week!

It's similar enough to LJIdol - he posts topics and you write and the top x amount of people are allowed back in (it might be one for all I know lol).
