Yes I has Subject Line
Date: 2012-01-03 04:53 am (UTC)As for the DW/LJ question: I'm impartial. I'm equally comfortable on both journals, so it doesn't bother me either way.
Subject to approval

Subject line
Date: 2012-01-03 05:13 am (UTC)Though I would prefer lj, I have a DW but I don't use it therefore I'm not all that familiar with it.
The clock is ticking
Date: 2012-01-03 05:23 am (UTC)So I voted for "DW but LJ is okay", although what I meant was "I don't care as long as we have proper comment pages but we need to be thinking about the future". Which... you've staked out our spot on Dwth, so yeah, I'm good with whatever the comm does, as long as I can still find it. ;-)
***********************
Other thing: I didn't pick a date because I feel weird picking three out of four, but my preference is for "anything but the first weekend listed". I'm starting school on the 9th and I need to spend the weekend getting things in order. o_O
ticky-tacky
Date: 2012-01-03 05:47 am (UTC)Given LJ's uneven track record for changes, I'm not going to fret right now about what they may or may not decide to screw up in the future, or what timeline they might or might not have. At present, we aren't 'switching back' at all; we're in a layout that never changed in the first place.
It looks like it.
Date: 2012-01-03 05:25 am (UTC)I am really fairly uninterested in making a DW account in addition to all the other accounts I have on the internet, but I'd do it for Fic!Rush if it became necessary.

Date: 2012-01-03 07:01 pm (UTC)half-open ID
Date: 2012-01-03 07:07 pm (UTC)viewing in my own style
Date: 2012-01-03 05:57 am (UTC)All hail the big talking bird!
Date: 2012-01-03 08:54 am (UTC)Yes, if the layout was one of those unaffected, then for the moment, we should all be fine. Unless, I suppose someone affected is viewing everything in style mine.
Let's see what happens, maybe? Last time LJ were this faily and provoked such an outcry they claimed they weren't changing the problem, and then they did anyway. Now it's past the Christmas hols, fingers crossed. I have nothing against DW, and I do have an account over there, so I'd still be able to take part (I could never work out Open ID, at least not before I lost the will to live/comment) but I just prefer LJ for the moment for various reasons, and I like to be in one place rather than two as far as possible.
If LJ do anything even more spectacularly stupid though, that may be forced to change, although I would be very sad.
big talking bird FTW!
Date: 2012-01-03 01:47 pm (UTC)no subject
Date: 2012-01-03 10:17 am (UTC)I don't know if the comm layout is working because I had to override everything and view in style mine because it's the only way I can guarantee that I can comment. Three browsers later and I still can't comment on the default pages. fdgfdgfdgfdgfdgdfgfg Why yes I am still a little pisssed off. Suffice it to say, it works for me for the moment so either or is fine with me (though I am beginning to prefer DW).
completely understanding the pissed-off aspect
Date: 2012-01-03 01:45 pm (UTC)I got so damned burned out over the whole thing that I went offline completely for two days.
insert subject here
Date: 2012-01-03 01:58 pm (UTC)I was completely the same.
subject to sudden bouts of cursing
Date: 2012-01-03 02:05 pm (UTC)If I had the energy, I'd start a therapy comm on DW for traumatised survivors of LJ.
Re: subject to sudden bouts of cursing
Date: 2012-01-05 02:49 pm (UTC)no subject
Date: 2012-01-03 10:59 am (UTC)Check, check, check.
As far as I can tell I still have subject lines.
Date: 2012-01-03 02:15 pm (UTC)subject lines are for the weak
Date: 2012-01-03 04:50 pm (UTC)I dunno, I don't mind DW as such, but I guess I'd rather not migrate but as a last resort.
As for the weekends... I didn't vote for the 14th cos I'm 100% unavailable until some undisclosed point in the evening, so I won't be able to do at least the first half of my shift. I am however available on Sunday evening on that weekend. The same for the 8th.
subject to approval
Date: 2012-01-03 05:07 pm (UTC)no subject
Date: 2012-01-03 05:11 pm (UTC)As for comments, the page works for me!
As for DW, I have one as a backup, but rarely use it for reading. I'm sure I could check more often on the Rush weekends if need be, but hopefully won't have to. :)
Can has subject lines!
Date: 2012-01-03 05:31 pm (UTC)I'm less and less on LJ and more and more on DW so obviously I'd be delighted if we did move, but I love the comm (and modding when real life isn't eating me OMG) so I'll continue to take part even if we stay here.
penguins and alien fish
Date: 2012-01-03 06:58 pm (UTC)I am fine with fic_rush moving to DW, and I am also fine with it staying on LJ.
If there are people who are concerned about participating on DW with their LJ accounts, I can help with an OpenID tutorial. It's not hard at all. In fact, try it out right now (http://dbskyler.dreamwidth.org/85444.html).
The only thing that's a bit of a pain is that the first time you sign in with OpenID, you have to verify that you are in fact the owner of the LJ account you are using. But once you're signed in, you're good to go until you log out. For fic_rush, I'd recommend signing in once, and then not logging out until the end of the round.
Re: penguins and alien fish
Date: 2012-01-03 07:08 pm (UTC)(Added because DW asks you to put in your OpenID account when you sign in, and it's a little confusing if it's your first time and you don't know what they're talking about.)
It's All Good
Date: 2012-01-04 04:05 pm (UTC)no subject
Date: 2012-01-04 10:08 pm (UTC)I do wonder, seeing how the winds seem to be blowing with LJ, if it might make more sense to go ahead and get the comm migration to DWth done while everything is still working and can be gone back and forth to - instead of waiting for the next wave of LJ-ness when DWth may be swamped in panicked people who procrastinated and preferred the comfy denial about LJs apparent hostility to its own customers. Just a thought.
