Public Service Announcement. (Public post)

Okay folks.

There has just been a friends cut. If you are reading this in the first place, chances are that you have nothing to worry about.

My deletion criteria was basically to delete journals that haven't made a post in over a year, plus people I must confess I simply had no idea who were. Some of those were probably reading journals - if anybody was seriously enjoying my sporadic locked posts about Real Life issues, now is the time to speak up - I'll friend again, I promise.

If anybody was just reading the fic, I still maintain an open-fic-posting-policy, which means that you haven't lost anything by not being on my friendslist.

Also, I'm declaring this de-friending amnesty week.

I've kept this journal for around six years now, and some of the folks on my friendslist have been there from the beginning. I've always been a sporadic commenter, and lately I've also been a sporadic poster.

In addition, when I started this journal, I was a OBHWF shipper, mostly-PG13 writer, one-fandom-fangirl, frequent-meme-poster, canon thumper and easily squicked.

And while there's still a soft spot in my heart for HP and OBHWF, I've moved on - to being a slasher, a writer of all ratings, a multifandom-fangirl with a deep and abiding love for crossovers and rare pairs, and a decided predilection for kink.

In short: I've moved on.

And if any of those on my friendslist feel that we have nothing in common anymore, and maybe we should just admit to it, now's the time to defriend - no hard feelings, I promise!

Of course, after six years (SIX YEARS, JESUS) I'm guessing that most of you are sticking around for a reason, that reason probably being that after six years one tends to know a person pretty well. So if you're staying, I promise to try to post more - this is all a part of my great master plan to start writing more :)

Well, I'm glad that you kept me :)

[identity profile] sarka.livejournal.com 2008-05-03 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Now I just need to start commenting on other people's posts to let them know that I am, occasionally reading - and oh, post on my own journal ;)

Of course I kept you :)

Thank you

Well, duh. I've moved on TO your fandom, not away from it ;)

Re: Thank you

FYI, you were the only name on that list that gave me serious pause.

But even before, we weren't communicating through LJ a lot, were we? I miss you, though. You're on my email list under 'Get back in touch with.'

I'm working on it.

easily squicked

I am speechless. When did you go through that phase? :p

[identity profile] sarka.livejournal.com 2008-05-05 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
AHAHAHA.

You know, this fandom thing came very gradually, for me. Back when we first met online, I was squicked by slash.

And then I got over that. And all the other squicks, too; most variants of kink, cross-generational smut, RPS, and so forth. Even incest, to a point.

By now, I maintain that I am still squicked by watersports and scat, and try to pretend that this somehow makes me a normal person. LOL.

Just checked the relevant e-mail account for the first time in weeks.

I'll believe an e-mail out of you when I see it. I'm a dork and have kept all you've sent. Three guesses as to how many there are. :p
