Jan. 12th, 2008 11:16 amThis is what I don't understand: why do people make their sharing journals as PERSONAL journals rather than communities?
This doesn't matter, of course, if the LJ is open. I can use the track function to find out when there is an update, or just pop-over every now and then to check. But if it's "comment here and I'll add you so that you can see scans", then I have a problem.

todokanai, I don't mind at all, because I know who owns it and that person is on my flist anyway. But I don't want to have to add a LJ of a random person to my flist just to see scans - the person with that login can see my flocked entries! Why couldn't those people make sharing communities instead, and then giving posting permission to only the comm owner? And then posts can be viewable by members only. They could even set it to "membership requires approval" if they like.
Maybe I'll make a journal, post a few fake entries with it, use it to join some random fandom comms, then use it to friend those LJs. Hmph.
