My dears?

Please, please, please never repost anything I post here to Facebook?

Ever. Twitter, either, preferably. But never Facebook.

I feel a headache forming from my inet issues re: Sprint, my dog being at the vet, talking about public relations during school, and now this.

I adore you all, and I'm apologizing for any bitchiness today.

No, they can repost their comments to private entries - but then content of the comment is likely to indicate what the entry is about, plus I think the title of the entry is included in the repost. :/ And, yeah, a link is included, so everyone will be able to read public entries - which they would, anyway, but those entries didn't used to be linked all over the place for non-LJ users to stumble across.

Well, that's a bit on the frustrating side. I can see how that would be beneficial to news communities, but I can't imagine this will end well.

Hopefully they'll add a privacy setting allowing us to disable reposting entirely. But then again...

Thank you for explaining that to me. :)

No worries. :) Someone's tested the comment-crosspost feature in the meantime, and it looks like it's all a blatant attempt at self-promotion, which makes me more sceptic that they will change it. :/

Oh wow. That's just great. :/ You're probably right, actually. Considering how they've treated other mass upsets on LJ, I can't see them changing it.
