That our journals could be removed? I thought those were personal and we could put anything we want to in them. So what happens, if someone reports you, it can be pulled?
I am shocked!

deleted_user 04/26/2008

WOW THAT IS ALL THAT I CAN SAY.

deleted_user 04/26/2008

It has happened to me before!!

Dixe4me 04/26/2008

MomofTwobees, did you write something offensive? I still can't see this happening. I really dont' think it is right for someone to report you for your journals.

someone was harrassing me and I made a private journal to just my friends about it but i used the persons user name and it got pulled because it had their name in it.

Well, obviously our journals are not safe, they are not a personal belonging. I thought that was the one place DS allowed us to write what we wanted to. I guess it,s all about people, who you can trust and not trust, so sad! I do always keep mine locked to friends only.

After I get so many journals up, I have been copy and pasting them into my documents for safe keeping, because I don't want to lose them. After all, it is possible for DS to have a major glich or something and we could all lose our journal entries.

thats true I have never thought of that!

I didnt' know that. That sucks. i am using this as a personal journal.

deleted_user 04/26/2008

Wow, I had no idea! I was just getting ready to write an entry after a truly crappy day, now I am having major second thoughts!!

Dixe4me 04/26/2008

Whitedolphin, I was using mine as a personal journal too.

msvee, If you were going to leave them open for friend support, write them in a word program on your computer first. Then you can copy and paste in your jouranl, save your copy in your documents. this also helps when you write a long journal and then click on save and it disapears! That is very aggrevating.
I really don't think your journals will be deleted unless someone turns you in for abuse.

deleted_user 04/26/2008

I have never had one deleted but I did know that they could delete a journal. i keep mine locked to just friends most of the time, that is why i try to keep my friends list down and with people i have developed friendships with that are more developed.

Dixe4me 04/26/2008

I was just cleaning mine up and saving them to my computer and for the first time I noticed the 'report abuse'.

Oh well, now we know.

that's crazy!!

deleted_user 04/26/2008

we know it is an unsecured site. but to pull our journals. What is wrong with this world, where one cant even type out their feelings to share with their friends and get reported. SICKOS!!!
I went to my acct and I decided to keep everything private or start deleteing friends.
Amazing what they dont pull and they should pull in the past under group postings,
Crazy isnt it.
Is this a COMMUNIST SUPPORT SITE??? Nazi ruled. Makes me wonder.

deleted_user 04/26/2008

wow, that is kinda screwed up.

deleted_user 04/27/2008

That's a really good idea Dixe. I never thought about doing that.
