[color=#000000ost_uid0] Yup. So did I.

I do think we're the majority. I believe at least 99.9% of the earths population did it.[/colorost_uid0]

Those loyal Citizens who are still with us, rejoice! One of our upstanding Citizens, Stand-B-ACK-3, has been inspired by this thread, and has produced the following fascinating document, which has been authorized for all security clearences.

[color=#000000ost_uid0]OK, I don't get this attitude.

The reason the LJers here are trying to get people to join is so they can share in the experience. It's a tool for online community, not a recruiting drive for the Aryan Nation.

Why invalidate people who blog by insinuating it's stupid or the playground of vapid teenagers with nothing to say? You don't lose your brain the minute you find an outlet for speaking your mind.

I fail to see how looking down on people who blog makes non-bloggers look better or "less trendy" or "more original."

So you blog or you don't blog. What's the big deal, either way?[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]You're absolutely right.

I just thought it was funny to get Sa'ar, the extreme anti-blogger, an LJ. [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I`m sure they didn`t harbor any bad feelings, Nan... They are just overwhelmed by our wacky torture-Sa`ar campaign, We`ll win them over eventually [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Okay, people.... whoah, whoah. Take deep breath, step backwards, think rationally.

We're not trying to force anyone to get an LJ here.

[Maybe with the exception of Sa'ar, because [iost_uid0]certain[/iost_uid0] quarters of his harem want him to have access to her private, friends-locked and extremely saucy posts. Â :eyeroll: Â ]

What we're trying to do is to [iost_uid0]encourage[/iost_uid0] you people to get an LJ.

Why? Because from what we can tell, y'all are a really funny, insightful, intelligent and engaging bunch, and your thoughts would be a fantastic contribution to the LJ community. Scooter, for example, is a prolific writer, Â and his posts are always a great read. It [iost_uid0]is[/iost_uid0] true that the vast majority of blogs out there are banal and stupid. I should know. I'm a a LJ-reviewing community.

But we can always try to change that.

Bottom line being: Yes, we'd like you to get an LJ. Very much. It'd be nice to get to know y'all better outside the scope of the forums. But if you don't want to get one, that's fine, no hard feelings; 'tis a free forum. It's both our loss and yours, of course, but thankfully we've already got some great writers on board.

JMTCW.

p.s. Arsozah... Evangelion4... if you're reading this, you may have noticed that I've added you. Moi == deadspeaker. Also, Eva-- have added you to sexfilter, as per requested [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Yes, it's all just a joke, really. I don't mind LJ's. In fact, I think it's a great idea. I, however, have nothing to say that I can't use this forum for.[/colorost_uid0]

Well then tell me the password already :P

Seriously, folks, apart from my stubborn pride, one of the primary reasons I don't want an LJ is the fact that I don't think my life's really interesting enough to post on the Internet.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Nor do I, but then I think of some of the things I've been around and see that it isn't my life that isn't interesting, I just can't convey it in an interesting manner. [/colorost_uid0]

Don't worry, we will.

And as I've stated before, you don't [iost_uid0]have[/iost_uid0] to post. There are a lot of people who only have LJ to post at other people's journals.[/colorost_uid0]

Rationally? What is "rationally"?

We`re not?

[quoteost_uid0]But if you don't want to get one, that's fine,[/quoteost_uid0]

It is?

Aww, does that mean I have to disband an army of Orcs and put all the medieval weapons back in the wardrobe? [/colorost_uid0]
