ADMIN POST

As a preventive measure I'm asking contributors who posted anything of an adult nature in the last round to please lock it down. I'm locking down everything else. Communities have been disappearing left and right and to prevent us from being next I'm making this a members-only community.

Sorry!

It has nothing to do with fanlib. There's a vigilante Protect the Chillldrun group that's going around targeting anything that might possibly have to do with pedophilia, and right now any journal that gets reported to LJ with something illegal (note that slash, yaoi, etc are not illegal) are being permanently suspended by LJ according to its ToS and the advice of its lawyers.

I have links to posts with facts about it over here (http://telophase.livejournal.com/875040.html). The fandom_wank post has the most links about it, but naturally with the big brouhaha going on right now, their server is getting hammered with poeple looking for info and is going up and down. :)

Basically, the group *claims* they're not targeting fandom and have reported no fandom journals, but honestly I think that their members are overeager and have no idea about how to distinguish between obviously fictional LJs and real criminial activity.

* And they're reporting based on searches on interest lists right now, so clean up anything that might be seen as illegal - i.e. the RPG character journal for Severus Snape that was deleted had interests that included 'murder' and 'beating people up' - and you should be fine.

Yeah, since posting that comment I've heard about all that too. *nods* All the shouta, incest, and rape stuff is going down. Only fandom I've seen attacked is the Harry Potter fandom. Most of these things don't affect me much...


There've been tonnes of posts to read through. x.x When I posted on it yesterday, I had to keep editing my post...u.u;
