So the 24-Hour LJ Strike is set to start at 5:00PM Thursday for Pacific Time/Arizona. I'm pretty sure I'm going to need to post within that time (trust me -- it's been a weird week). Also, I don't particularly care that the basic accounts have been eliminated in favor of the Plus -- LJ is a business and that business needs money to operate.

Also, am I the only one who finds it curious that there's a strike going on to demonstrate to the advertisers the power of the LJ user base... so that we can get ad-free LJs? Somewhere that logic doesn't line up.

I'll admit the "top interests" snafu sucked, but it's been rectified now. At this point, LJ functions largely as I expect it to.

If you want an effective LJ strike, you need to get a large number of people to leave indefinitely, and only come back when things are fixed. And, personally, I don't think people are angry enough to do that yet. I'm certainly not.

You're absolutely correct. And I know I'm not that mad yet either. I'm certainly getting there and I'm working on setting up more things off LJ. But I'm not about to give up what I have here and leave completely.

I would, however, consider participating at least partially in a long-term strike (meaning, I wouldn't post in this journal, but I'd still do the minimal things I need to do to keep my RP characters active in their respective games).
