Petition Against New Recent Changes On LiveJournal

Because this is some fucked up bullshit right here.

I didn't become a paid member so the most simplistic features would become complicated and that the entire LJ staff would ignore everyone's concerns and input, or even allow our input or consulting with us before making these ridiculous changes. Sign the petition and also let them know in this post here.

They completely changed the comments. It's all detailed in the petition and the LJ release page I linked above, but basically they fucked everything up and everyone is angry as hell about it. As they (we) should be. >:|

I have over 100 icons, it takes longer than necessary when with text I could just click and be done with it. And with other features, well, for others it screws up their layouts, and you can't comment with a subject title now and it's just.....completely unnecessary and useless and the fact that they never consulted us or even made it an option for us to choose makes it even more enraging.

We don't take change well, but this goes beyond fucked up to where this happened just an hour ago and already there's over 1,000 comments in the news feed post and a petition. People are pissed and hopefully the LJ staff will listen.

If not, they will start losing their customers fast.

Oh, and the expanding feature to see a thread of comments is ridiculous, complicated and unnecessary.

Basically, too much unnecessary changes that didn't improve anything. Just create more problems and too many angry users. I mean, this shit is ugly as fuck and I am livid that they think it's okay to change shit that doesn't need to be messed with (when they could be doing other things that actually need improvement.)

Well, that's fine if you do. But I don't.

Hopefully with the number of outraged people voicing their opinions on this matter to the staff, they will change it back. I would rather they have this setting be an option so that if you like it you can use it, and for people who don't can remain how it used to be. I remember years ago when they changed the layout for the entirety of the site and people weren't happy with it, but they allowed people to use the older layout setting if they so choose to.
