*ears droop* It's always a sad day when one is forced to resort to making our journals friends only.

So far no trolls have bothered me, for which I am thankful.

Then again I'd spend so much time laughing at them, they would run away in dismay :P But I'm weird that way.

well i do this since they are posting things from journals onto thier own sites to for everyone to see then they twist the phrases areound so they look bad. or possible to make others look bad too.. this is a thing out of control.

This is why I changed my own LiveJournal to Friends Only, for the exact reasons.
For a time first, I characterized my response to such actions by just talking less and less about what was going on in my own life and whatnot, but all that did was turn my LJ into a meme and video outlet, which is not what I wanted. So, after taking some time away from LJ, I locked up my journal and made it friends only with rare exceptions, returning to posting about what was going on, but still guardedly sharing my life with others.

*nods* I know. That's why I watch my friends list to see who adds me. I then check out their LJ and decide if this is someone I want to have reading about my life.

Since I haven't gathered any trolls I'm assuming my LJ just isn't that interesting. =^.^=

actually i dont have much of a life for them to messup. but i try to avoid em in case they become a problem.

this is why my journal is mostly dead all the stuff i make etc not many care no more. so i post less and less now.. it seems most of the journals i see from friends are how bad they feel etc. :( i see too much of that on tv now. no one makes happy entries. one of the reasons why i hardly get comments.. there was a few times at work things got me po'ed and i got tons of replies.. heh go fig.. i think everyone loves negativity now. :(
