Notice/Warning/Whatever

It seems that importing content to a community is not supported, and will not be (sigh, I think I need to ask for this) so when I tried to import the posts at it imported all my personal-journal posts, which I didn't want to do.

So I've asked them to wipe my DW journal - and that means I don't even know how long this post will be here, but I'll re-load my Recent Content on Sunday or Monday.

See ya on LJ until then.

The reason they can't import community content is an IP issue-- they're operating on the assumption that a poster owns the content of their posts, and a community owner doesn't have the right to move posts that don't belong to them. There was a big long discussion about this already and I think the decision was that this was ethically iffy and therefore not going to happen.

I do understand the ethics issue, but there are communities out there that (a) are single-poster comms, like I have for my vids/fics, and those don't have the same issue, and there are other communities where it is entirely possible for all the posters to consent to move it over and those could be authorize-able, too.
