elfwreck @ 03:37 am: I agree that this is problematic.

I can understand them wanting to have a central location; having comments active in three or four places (don't they have a JournalFen account as well?) would lose coherence; there'd be a lot of repetition in comments and their replies. And I can even understand choosing LJ as the main base, since even with the Strikethrough problems, it's the biggest center for interactive multifandom discussion (of the journal sites, anyway; I don't want them doing their official announcements on ff.net's discussion boards).

But...
It's weird to realize that several of the staff now have their main identities on IJ, but OTW is centered on LJ. I'd hope that sometime soon, they install a blog on their own website, crosspost to all the journal sites and put the comments *on their site* with OpenID logins. But I can also understand if they want to hold off on that a while, since they plan on doing a journal thing of some sort.

They should definitely, however, be poked about this. I'd at least like to hear why they chose to keep the comments on LJ instead of IJ.
