Banning LJs and communities

[tamara_russo]

Something linked at on the Harry Potter community I'm a member in.

I don't know whether it would be of any relevance to any of those who read my LJ (though I can think of a few who might be in danger), but I think it's important.

Yeah, I saw a less-hysterical, more facts-oriented reports of the situation over at ataniell92's. Basically, there are two seperate situations here:

1. Untrue rumor: fandom communities and LJs are being permanently suspended.
2. LJs and communities with words such as "paedophily", "incest", "rape" and "beating people up" in their interests are being permanently suspended. This is true. While it's generally a good idea, it's also idiotic 'cause they're going blanket about it, suspending also innocent RPG journals.

Just read the last couple public posts at ataniell93's LJ; she gives a pretty up-to-date, accurate running report on the situation.
