![]() ![]() I've seen a lot of panic along the lines of, "What will I do with my communities? My writing journals?" or "I have one thousand past entries now to go through!" No, you don't. :)Īt the moment, use of the adult-content settings remains voluntary. More to follow on the "more or less" in a bit. Logged off users will see the LJ-cuts indicating adult content but will be able to click on the cut, declare themselves an adult, and view the content more or less normally. Users who have declared birthdays that make them 18 or older will see everything normally. Users who have declared birthdays that make them under 18 will have adult content collapsed under an LJ-cut. In LJ's view, Adult Concepts is akin to PG-13 while Explicit Adult is more like R or NC-17. In brief, LJ/6A now offers users the option to declare either their entire journals or individual entries as No Adult Content, Adult Concepts, or Explicit Adult Content. It's been in discussion ever since LJ/6A realized that *omg* people wrote, drew, and did things that offended other people!!1!!1 And that minors (under 18, by definition in the US) were accessing content that was intended for adults. I apologize if I go on a little longer than I generally like to without using a cut.Īnyone following the litany of conflicts, dramas, and bad decisions on the part of LJ/6A over the course of 2007 probably isn't surprised by this latest addition to the LJ "features" lineup. I'm not cutting this because I think it's important, especially for writers and artists which (surprise!) comprise most of my flist. Hopefully, many of you have heard of the latest round of changes on LJ already, but in case you have not, I'm getting my own version of the word out.įirst, the facts. ![]()
