To be Free

This is it. I think this will be my last post on my LJ personal blog. My last post of substance anyway. After hearing about a friend who got her LJ account suddenly suspended for no reason.... I'm worried. Really worried. I have no idea if this is the start of a mass deletion, or just a mistake... Cos honestly I can think of no idea why her account would be suspended. She's not even a fanfic writer so???

And since I have all my posts imported to LJ already in anycase...

It really makes no difference to me if I stop crossposting to LJ.

If you would like to continue reading my random rants, then please come to subscribe to my DW blog. Yes, same username. Posts that would have been public on LJ will still be public on DW. If I find the post a little too sensitive, then I'll friend lock it as I did on LJ. If you are dying to read my friend locked posts... Then I'm afraid you'll have to let me get to know you... Comment on my public posts for a while, then request access. If you know me from elsewhere, then please send me a PM or something and let me know where we met and I'll grant you access.

For the most part, my posts are public anyway, so there isn't that much that you're missing out.

No, I'm not going to delete my LJ. There are still LJ comms to access... And well it has a lot of sentimental value to me, and I'm a very sentimental person.

I'm still hoping that more comms will join in the move to DW. Everyone of you reading this post, do me a favor: Ask your favourite LJ comm if they are moving to DW and encourage them to do so. I've asked a few comms, but the more people who ask, the better it is and the higher the chances of communities moving.

Ok, on second thoughts, I might still use my personal blog to encourage people to move to DW... Then again, how many people actually read my personal LJ? That's something that I'd really like to know... So many silent readers....

So yes, please move to DW, at least create a backup on DW. It's really easy to import your entries to DW after all.... Check out my guide here. And get your friends and favourite communities to move too! We need everyone to move together for this to work!

Yeah. What else did I want to say? Oh yes....

Here are some communities you can join on DW. Yes, it's all self promotion. Partly because there aren't that many comms on DW yet, and partly because not everyone lets you share their comm/site openly so to stay on the safe side and not break any rules... :P

For a DW counterpart to arashi-on or a-ra-shi, we have arashi_off .


For a arashrabu counterpart (i.e. fanfic advertisements), we have arashics .

I've already moved my arashi bangumi review comm to DW over at arashi_bangumi .

Also, storm_freaks  @DW is up and running, but we can't keep track of two places at once so game and points still run on LJ till 30 June 2017.

Finally, my personal fic comm nutty_arashi  (well together with J and octavia) has been backed up and all to DW already, layout looks nice too... But because I've been lazy, the masterposts have not been updated yet. Otherwise everything else is done... (Ok, the masterpost is like 99% of the work so...)

Yup... That's all I guess. See you at Dreamwidth!
