: Hold that 'yay' -- everything is NOT suddenly okay.
Yays, LiveJournal/SixApart are being reasonable again! -- or are they?
Let's have a look.
( A new, unified and easy-to-find policy document -- yay, right? Right...? )
( Yay, they're not lumping together fandom and child pornographers anymore! They say they don't -- right...? )
( No more witch-hunts for objectionable material in fandom journals -- can we say yay yet...? )
( Well, at least nobody is going to be banned without warning anymore... right? Yay...? )
( Right, well, a three-strikes rule would have been nice, but two-strikes seems fair enough. Ya-- what now...? )
( And they clarified their policy on links to content on other sites, and pretty soon after we asked! Yay, right...? )
( But haven't the suspensions been rescinded? Can't we at least celebrate the return of the two artists to their LJ community? )
( Yay, it's the end of the post! That was stressful. One last thing -- let's break down exactly what message LJ sent its users last night... )
