LJ Are At It Again.
For those who haven't been pointed at this already -
http://community.livejournal.com/lj_biz/237534.html
LJ are asking what sort of sponsored communities etc. we want.
Not do we WANT to let big business set up communities etc on LJ, you note!

mygothangel suggests we see how many pages of 'NO' can be generated.
Please go read the LJ biz post - say 'Yes Please' if you want to, but I am in agreement with the posters who start the comments with the phrase 'Slippery Slope'.
I know at the moment paid users can avoid adverts - but I am beginning to wonder how long for, when the owners of LJ are now selling actual journal type stuff to commercial bodies - and it annoys me - a lot. And if I was not a paid user it could well annoy me even more, so this is not me just going 'Hey - I pay for this.'
