Dreamwidth: Bad Management Decisions
May. 3rd, 2009 10:40 pmI don't understand the whole subscription/access thing. What was wrong with friending?
If we're really building relationships between journals around here, shouldn't friending be a reciprocal arrangement. There are filters for more complicated clique discrimination, but the main kind of relationship we keep should really bring us together and not divide us into subgroups. To that end, traditional friending would be an excellent feature to add back for those used to more full-featured systems (like LJ or IJ) who will miss it.
