Friends Only

[elialshadowpine]

After some negative incidents I've had with people trolling my journal, I've decided to make everything friends only. If you'd like to be added, please comment, and let me know how you found me. :)

Also, please note that I have a filter system for posts. When you comment, please let me know which you'd like to be on. I reserve the right to not put you on one if I'm uncomfortable but I will certainly take everything into account. I put everyone on the Life/General, Writing, and Health filters by default.

• Life/General
• Writing
• Health
• Sex and BDSM
• Feminism
• World of Warcraft / Gaming
• Fat Acceptance and Mental Illness
• Family Issues
• Childfree
• Paganism

I would love to be on the Feminism filter and the Sex and BDSM one (of course only if you're comfortable with letting a new person on the latter!).

[elialshadowpine.livejournal.com]

Done! I put you on the default filters and those two as well. I haven't written anything in the Sex & BDSM filter in awhile, though; health issues have precluded too much of that activity, sadly. :(

If you got a LJ notification that I friended you and defriended you, it's because apparently the stupid "add friend" on the icon hover does not take you to the page where you select which filters the person should have access to. It was quicker to remove and add from the main page where it does give me that option. Bah. Stupid LJ.

Hi, I'm Kurt and I found you through 38's journal and you seem really interesting. I am looking for new friends and wondered if you'd mind if I added you? I wouldn't mind being added to all filters, but if there were any you felt you didn't want me reading I completely understand. :)

[elialshadowpine.livejournal.com]

Eep, sorry, I missed this. Sure thing!

(I notice that you have some communities for the Olympia area... small world! :D)

[soundstations.livejournal.com]

Hi - thank you for adding me. :)

I'm living in the UK right now (thanks to various issues) but I grew up in Shelton and also lived in Lacey when I was younger. Small world indeed!

Thanks again, I look forward to getting to know you. :D

[shesfearless.livejournal.com]

May I be added to all of the filters, please?

[ravnsdaughter.livejournal.com]

Please add me to all of your filters... since I'm pretty much interested in all of those things too! :)

[elialshadowpine.livejournal.com]

Sure thing :)

[elialshadowpine.livejournal.com]

Sure thing! :)

[shesfearless.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[magenter.livejournal.com]

All of those things are relevant to my interests, so add me to any of your filters you feel comfortable adding me to ^_^

[elialshadowpine.livejournal.com]

Added! :)

I found you on ontd_feminism and think we have some things in common. I also post a lot about family issues, writing, mental illness acceptance, feminism and am pretty open minded/ happy to hear about anything else. As most of my recent entries are friends only, I will add you to give you access. If you think we have anything in common, please add me back :)

[elialshadowpine.livejournal.com]

Sure! Added you :)

Hi Nonny, Just finally found you guys on LIvejournal. Set one up so friends could add me. I have a Opendiary at http://www.opendiary.com/entrylist.asp?authorcode=D590585 if you want to view my online journal. I may start using this one here..not sure yet.

:-)

I met you in sf_d comments, and I've seen you around in wow_ladies (though I'm still only lurking there). Looking at your website and your filters, as a fat childfree gamer feminist into bdsm, I'd love to be added to any and all filters you feel comfortable with.

I hope you won't be put off by the emptiness of my journal. I've just made this new one to get away from some old things, and I'm still filling it up!

I would like to be friends. :)

[elialshadowpine.livejournal.com]

Oh, sure! Lol, I actually remember glancing at your journal when I went to approve your membership (I'm one of the mods over at WL) and thought you sounded pretty cool (pharmacy student? So envious. I'd be pursuing a career there if not for the whole disability thing). Adding you! :D

Also, I'm pretty open about letting folks on filters. I mainly filter because I have anxiety issues around people being squicked out or disliking what I post, so the best way around that was to make it so folks can ask for what they're interested in. I generally will make assumptions on some things depending on folks's profile and interests, but, yeah.

[qb-cereal.livejournal.com]

Ooh, fantastic! Thanks for both of the approvals!

And, yes, pharmacy is totally awesome. I love it. All questions and discussion welcome! :)

[elialshadowpine.livejournal.com]

Done! :)

[crescent-gaia.livejournal.com]

Um...I don't remember how I found you, Nonny. I think I followed you off of a CF board and then just decided to stay. Or you were linked from Naamah and I came over to see what was up and friended you. I just know that it's been a long while that I've been reading your journal.

I'm open to being on all filters. I might not comment from time to time or only post mental hugs, but I am reading.

Hi there! We met through Thorium Brotherhood, and you were the tank for our Razor Hill Dragoons run.
I was the rogue called Caeryn.

I would like to be added to the WoW / Gaming filter, Childfree filter, and Fat Acceptance / Mental Illness filter. That is, if you don't mind!

Thanks!

[bunnika.livejournal.com]

I cannot for the life of me remember if I threw out my default comment to you when we originally friended. Reading this while catching up on the Drama Llama's visit to your stable reminded me, though, so: I always tell people to add me to whatever filters they're comfortable adding me to. I like to know as much about my friends as they're comfortable letting me know. (This means, for example, I'm on a lot of Christian friends' religious filters, even though I'm Pagan; ie, I'm not going to be a giant ass about the subject of a filter just because my stance is different. I still like knowing how the person thinks and feels about that stuff.) So yeah. If I didn't share that before, there ya go. :-)

[robertsloan2.livejournal.com]

I'm cool with all of it, even World of Warcraft though I don't play. I like Blizzard games and you're intriguing me about WOW.

[barrelofrain.livejournal.com]

Hey, I just found you over on the NaNo forums, and I see you around these parts all the time, so I thought I'd see if you wanted to be friends. :)

Adding Steamcon folks. Caught your post to Cupcake Goths journal.
