LJ Writers Union?

[mishalak]

So there are calls for a strike starting today at 6pm MDT. The first one I read was in I read the geeks community. More informative that what is (apparently) the originating post by beckyzoole since it has example timezones and all. Will this change anything? I do not know. Do I support it? I like the idea but I would like to hear out some contrary points of view. If I do this it will take me right up to Karval Kon so unless I remember to voice post I won't be back until Sunday.

Additional question: does LJ need a Writers Union, Local 204.9.177.18?

Hey, if it's "local" it should be 127.0.0.1!

I thought about this and decided it would not be nearly as geeky as looking up the the actual livejournal address.

IP jokes aside, I'm in.
Not sure how a union would work, but I think a more potent Users Advisory Board would be a good start.
Have fun at Karval Kon, wish I was there!

The notion of a LJ "union" makes me sneer with the fury of a billion betnoirs.

Well that tears it. Probably a good idea then.
