This is a Test!

It's been a very long time since I accessed my DW account and as I recall, I didn't find it especially user - friendly, but since my LJ friends are starting to crosspost, I'm thinking I should familiarize myself with this place again.

I am attempting to crosspost, so wish me luck!

Your cross post worked! Taking a while to get used to DW, hoping we really don't have to use it. I plan on keeping my LJ account as long as the links to my stories on AO3 and FF.net still work.

Cleared out all my private messages, going though my journal and removing most of the posts. 2102 and 2017 are done. Started on 2013. It's a lot of work but I am so annoyed about the new TOS on LJ that I'm doing it just to thumb my nose back at them. Going back through all my stories, removing the text and only using links to other sites.

Not that I think they'll take any of my postings or pm's...as I've said already, it's just on principle.

IT WORKED!!! I am so excited!

Good work!

[davesmusictank.livejournal.com]

Yep - worked fine.

Good for you. You'll have to walk me through it. Can you crosspost to a journal or only to a community?

[alynwa.livejournal.com]

I guess you can do both? My experimental post was in my journal.

I really don't post much on my journal, other than weather reports when a big storm is on the way, and cat stuff, some birthday wishes, so I probably won't have need of cross posting...though I should try to get it to work.

What I post on LJ is being kept to a minimum, as I no longer feel comfortable with Live Journal. I know I'm not alone in that thinking. Still, I'll be sticking around until I can't.

Me, too. You know all of my work is on ff.net and AO3. I think I will just post links here from now on.

All my stuff is Already o FF.net but I've been lax in posting to AO3.

Yeah, links are the way to go...not that the'll take our stuff on LJ, it's the fact that they say they can and have the right to do it. I don't think so... Not that they can't nick stuff from AO3, though FF is harder to do that...

Spike's right, they're after their ow people, not us Doing everything via link is essentially thumbing your nose at the powers that be...that is until they screw everyone over and block links. Then it's (sad to say) DW time... lol!
