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.

IT'S NOT EVEN NICE TO LOOK AT. IT'S FUCKING AWFUL TO LOOK AT.

Seriously, the redesign is almost ... juvenile. I guess they were trying to go for something all flashy and Web 2.0 to compete with Facebook and Twitter, but it didn't work out for them. Instead it looks basic, has shot all functionality and organization and NAVIGABILITY to hell, and to top it all off, they did it without their users' consent, so it's yet another in a long stream of bullshit changes they've made that no one has actually wanted. LJ, damn it, I like the content and connectivity and community you foster, so why can't you just be quiet with your attempts at style and let your users make your site awesome with their SUBSTANCE.

I HATE THE NEW FONT AND HOW POSTS LOOK AND COMMENTS AND THE LINKING AND JUST EW. EWWWWW. EWWWWWW!

It really is basic as hell, and perhaps it was going for the flashy "LET'S LOOK LIKE ALL THE OTHER SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES BECAUSE WE NEED MORE CLIENTELE!" which yeah, fuck you assholes. This shit is ugly as fuck, it's complicated and not even worth changing because there's a REASON why many prefer this site other the other sites that have basic and cheap looking features. Just, no. >:/
