That's funny, because it's the other way round for me and other friends of mine. I.e. I've already had some "friends" harrassing me by saying that if I don't follow the to DW they're cutting off all ties with me and others, while rubbing on my face how super perfect and flawless DW is.

Doesn't mean your situation doesn't suck, though. Sheeesh, if you wanna go or stay, that's your decision and not theirs.

You have shitty friends, anon.

I wouldn't tell you to do that. I do want to move to do DW, because they've almost catered the site to things that a RPer or someone in fandom would want. Icon package issues notwithstanding, of course.

I've had friends who are wanting to move to IJ because of 100 free icons, and some of them have made it clear that it's IJ or bust for them if everyone have to move.

Pretty much this. I get that DW is a great place. I like it here too. But stop 'attacking' the ones who express some attachment to LJ or just want to keep playing there if it's convenient for them. You don't get to dictate how someone feels or what someone does.

It peeved me a lot to see two friends jump on a plurk linking a meme thread and saying that oh, they'd do it but the comment page is so ugly and why would anyone play there. It's fine to express your opinion. But this? This is also offensive to those that are playing there, including the person linking their thread.

As it is, I'm more irritated by the ones that are insisting that LJ is impossible to play in for aesthetic reasons than anything else. People have been triggered. They are having visually induced migraines. They cannot load anything. I understand if you don't want to play at LJ because it's different and 'uglier', but that does not make it impossible to do so.
