Okay, I'm about to be a bit of a snot...

[conuly]

But people? If you're posting a lot of quizzes, or long surveys, or even just really long posts (raises her own hand guiltily)... use an LJ-Cut, okay? It's a bit annoying to have to scroll down lots of quizzes or surveys several times a day (that's how often I check my friends page, poor pathetic person that I am). If you're not sure how long a post is, add yourself to your friends list and check your page for yourself.

This is not directed at anyone in particular, I just know I have a lot of friends who just joined livejournal and probably don't know about lj cuts yet.

Hm. Among the other things you probably don't know about yet are syndicated sites. You can get comics like sinfest and calvin and hobbes on your friends page every day! You can also get the news and sam's blog, if you want. Worth looking into.

And there's also, of course, all the nice customizations... you can change the layout of your journal, and the color. And all that. But yeah. Syndication and lj-cuts. Learn those, and we'll both be happy. *huggles all her friends*

Luv ya lots!

Thank you! I've been meaning to say something for a while now - quite a lot of my journal is clogged with these things. I don't mind them - in fact I even partake myself - I just prefer to choose whether to see them or not.

As you say, not directed against anyone in particular just something that needed to be said.

i don't tend to post polls, but my entries seem to be getting longer...i'll cut the next one if it's too long

I have no problem with long posts - just lots of polls and quizzes :0)
