LJ Abuse vs Boob Nazis
cali4niachef is informed by LJ Abuse her default icon is inappropriate and to cease using it by the 23rd or face having her account suspended.

Boob Nazis. LJ Abuse. Breastfeeding Icons.

I think we can all see where this is going. (booju_mooju first of all it seems.)

Once the anti-breastfeeding comms get hold of this it should really take off.

Edit the first Thanks to quickfade Apparently hardvice is responsible Icons in comments NSFW.

Edit the second Thanks to a mousie. cf_hardcore join the party.

Edit the third Thanks to freezer It hits metaquotes.

Edit the forth stupid_free weigh in. And fuckyoulist makes an appearance too.

Edit the fifth Just how much further can it spread? As far as retarded_icons, blackfolk and feminist apparently.

Edit the sixth hardvice shows solidarity with the boob_nazis. And magdalene74 has a new lj approved breastfeeding icon.

And to think when I originally posted this I was worried it wasn't wanky enough.

Edit the seventh Annnnnnnnnnd here's anti-feminist joining in the fun.

Edit the eighth Predictably - Exposing LJ Abuse

Speaking here as someone who has seen the rise and fall of popular online gathering places, the problem comes when "not policing the site for legal reasons" coupled with ambiguous TOS regulations and volunteers making decisions about banning for TOS violations leads to a perception of unfareness and thence to customer dissatisfaction.

Which, you know, F_W itself is an example of.

	I don't really care about your opinions on LJ Abuse, although I will say that LJ Abuse could be perfect and it would still be surrounded by tons of wank and controversy. I was explaining why some people are smacked for inappropriate default icons and why others aren't. That's it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I have no bitch with LJ abuse as a thing-in-itself; I'm just saying that my observation indicates that that form of moderation is prone to disasterous failure. (Reply to this)(Parent)
