READ THIS PLEASE

[not_as_it_is]

 Or at least the first bit?

I am going to switch entirely to DW as of now.  I do not like the change, but I don't control the world or LJ and LJ seems to be operated by evil overlords.  If I can't figure DW out, I'll... probably end up with a lot of free time.  BUT ANYWAY.  My name on DW is not_as_it_is (my apologies to those of you who hate underscores, but I'm a fan) and this will be my last cross-posted entry.

Also, if we're not pals on plurk, my username there is cheatreality.

If you have a DW account and want to be friends, do let me know!  I've not been keeping up with plurk due to not having internet and I'm sure I've missed a bunch of you.

And this is where you don't have to read.  I'll try to keep this short since my signal could die at any moment, but...

I do not want Poly to become comm-based.  My first RP game was comm-based and I didn't like it; I joined Poly largely because of the journal-based format.  That said, I've been at Poly on and off for five years (okay, not that long if you include all of the times I left and then came back) and, now that I've rejoined, I'm not going to leave if it becomes comm-based--not immediately.  If the combination of having to recode all of my journals (which was painstaking the first time 'round because I'm an html idiot) and Poly's format drives me nuts, I might consider leaving for good.  Might.

I love Poly.  I regretted dropping every single day last year.  I love the people I've gotten to know, I love the mods, I love the premise and not having it around is sad-making.  I even have a Penny application ready to go.

But now I'm just not sure.  I'm not posting at all right now (mostly because I CAN'T, but partly because I'm waiting to see how things go).  Playing Justin-recovering-his-memory slowly is hard.  Doing that with all of this uncertainty going on?  I'm not going to deal with it, especially with my other internet playland, the Pony Arena, switching sites too.

I don't like change.  My two sites are changing dramatically.  

I still don't have internet.

This is kind of a bitchy post.

I'm not mad, though.  Just kind of ready to bang my head against a wall.  I love you.

I dont know if you were able to get to the poll to vote to keep poly journal based, but you can also vote by emailing the mods: polychromatic.mods@gmail.com

There's a 4 vote difference in it right now with a large minority not minding either option, so I don't think either side can claim any particular victory.

The new router lives! I went ahead and voted. Thank you so much for reminding me.

YAY DREAMWIDTH! Though I'm sorry so much is changing all at once for you because that is rough. :(

Oh, hello, internet. Nice of you to join me.

I will have proper words once I have a steady connection. ♥

[not_as_it_is]

Then I'm gonna friend you back!

Fff, #firstworldproblems. None of this is the end of the world, I'm just ruffled. I'm sure whatever happens with Poly will turn out fine, anyway.
