☞ Two years ago, I uploaded a vid to Youtube (don't ask, it sucks. I had considered getting into vidding and it was my first try). Now I got told that it's locked in the following country: Germany. Yeah, everybody but me is still going to be able to see it. :( They misidentified the music too, but I doubt telling them that the rights belong to UMG and not Sony will be helpful.

☞ Re: vidding. I'm just glad Vividcon is never going to be an issue for me, even if I do manage to teach myself how to vid properly (which I really don't feel like doing right now). I'd need to have the money, manage to get over my fear of flying and be willing to tell the USA about my mental health issues first.

☞ Fic No-Nos :( is about as mature as the title suggest. I've done about half of those.

☞ Has anybody suggested a DW notes feature for user accounts like the one on LJ yet? I really need one, with all the fail. I remember a lot of names, but I have no idea where from. I'm generally not good with names, so I'd probably use it a lot.

AFAIK it's been added to the "things we have planned" pile a while ago (like the killfile, another thing I want NOW OMG NOW). Until then, people make do with a (clunky but manageable) Greasemonkey userscript called Dreamwidth ljwho.

Thanks for the script link! I miss annotating people with nasty comments. :)

Thanks for telling me about this! You're right, it's a bit clunky, but better than nothing.

ETA: I just noticed that apparently, the notification for this comment is lost in the system. Weird.

Thank you for the script. I'm not sure how I got by on LJ before notes and they're something I've desperately wanted on Dth. On my list of Things I Will Give You Money To Have they rank 2nd, just under ability to edit comments.

The fic no-nos were a fun read. And yet, none of the people who need to know will read them. A sad, sad world. ;)

Yeah. Making rules for writing on LJ is just preaching to the choir.
