adult content flagging comes to LiveJournal: the POLL

(This poll relates directly to this previous entry.)
[Poll #1075683]
This is, of course, accepting that we have no idea as of yet how LJ-Abuse will handle such reports, nor how having your content or your entire journal flagged as "adult" will affect access to it by other LiveJournal users and the general public....

there are a million blogging communities online, if people get frustrated enough with LJ, they'll find another

and actually, for years people who had been on my LJ flist have been moving to blogspot, blogger, etc.

Of course. I'm not taking a chicken little approach to this, I just simply will no longer be a paying customer and will drastically reassess what, if anything, I'll use LJ for.

(It's also worth mentioning that this sort of thing is smack in the middle of my field of professional interest, so I'm going to find it more interesting than most people are.)

And if yoo can mobilize a bunch of paid members and get the point across to the LJ admin that they will be losing money by doing this, it's likely they'll listen.

I suppose since I neither pay to use LJ, nor let ads appear on my LJ, I don't feel as strongly as other people do.
