Yeah, it seemed to come out of the blue this morning, as far as I'm concerned. Just saw a few people on my flist post it. Made me make a face like this: O_o
Yeah, I just saw something about it on my flist. They seemed very worried, but it just sounded a little alarmist to me. Especially since I've been having problems with my journal for a few days now and I don't have any of those key words. I figured it was normal technical bugs. Btw, what the heck is "chan"? Do I even want to know? I'm very curious now.
Terribly, terribly alarmist sky-is-falling stuff. I didn't believe it when I saw it; I am very used to LJ being wonky since I've had my journal for five years now (just double-checked that; my 5-year LJ birthday came and went on the 18th).
Also: "chan" is a manga/anime fandom word for underage fics/art.
Hee, an LJ veteran! Yeah, I've been around a long time; fannishly involved for 7 years, too. I remember the days of going through archives for fanfic, rather than comms, and talking to people on mailing lists, rather than journals. Of course, that didn't last very long before everything sort of migrated to the journal system, so it doesn't make me feel too terribly old. ;)
Oh, I remember doing all that too. I was just a very late-comer to LJ. I resisted it for a long time. I'm not sure why. Ah, the good old days of yahoo mailing lists & fanfic archives. Of course, someone's going to pop up any second now telling us all about the good old days of 'zine only fic and snail mail. *g*
