Yeah. Ah well. Thinking it over, though: they want to run this as a livejournal project, it's really their affair, and it's not like any outsider could change that decision.

Just, considering the problems fandom has had with LJ in the past year, it puts me off that they'd insist on it being LJ-centric.

Oh, me too. But, their project, their decision.

I suppose if you think of it as a project to get people to stop using livejournal, it makes strategic sense to have it all on livejournal until their own site is available to switch over to. Those of us who already left livejournal are not their intended market, as it were.

Don't they mean to gather as many fractions of fandom in one place, though - not just the people on LJ? That is my impression.

So it doesn't make sense - but of course, their project, their right to make bad decisions ;oP

Well, if they mean to do that, they're putting off doing it until they have at least one project up and running. Or it may be that they genuinely think that "all of fandom" is on livejournal.

Either way, yeah: their project, their bad decisions to make.
