Livejournal Purge

I have had issues with the way livejournal handles so many things, but none of them have made me want to leave livejournal for good. Until now. If a journal or community was not updated within the last 24 months, its gone. How much of fandom's history will be gone in one swoop? Think about all the journals that haven't been updated in years but they still have fic you love to read? There are literally too many for me to name.

I will not renew my paid account and take my business to dreamwidth and encourage others to do the same. Seriously, this is the last straw for me.







There was an edit apparently.

EDIT: Purging inactive accounts: One of the benefits of the work we've done to purge suspended accounts is that we will now be able to purge inactive journals and communities too--something you've been requesting for years! A journal is defined as inactive if it has not been logged into for 24 consecutive months and has only one post (i.e., the welcome post). A community is defined as inactive if has not been updated for 24 consecutive months and has only one entry and no comments.

The part in bold was not there before.
