if looks could kill they probably will

[rhivolution]

Just an FYI--I'm not reading much of LJ since they enforced the death of the friends page for me a few weeks back (despite saying they wouldn't, heyyyyy)--this new feed style is not good for my brain.

I have a cold. The world is fraying and everyone can see the seams. I keep nearly falling into the no, really, nobody cares what you think, you're useful primarily as an aggregator of other people's thoughts pit.

Then not wanting to say as much because it makes me sound needy and self-absorbed and there's far too much crap in the world for me to add to it.

Still grumpy. Still anxious. You've probably gathered all of that if you follow me on Twitter.

Still self-censoring.

Re: LJ - that's weird. If I'm logged in, and go to /friends specifically, it shows me my regular page, and if I go to /feed, then I get the ugly new style. I wonder if they're doing it in stages, phasing everyone gradually.

*hugs* if you want them re: everything else.

Hi. Here via the network page. My LJ friends page still looks like it always did. I wonder why? I switched it back with the little button on the side and it's still fine.

I'm wondering if it's not something with my cookies/cache. I'd try clearing them but I'm lazy--but /friends redirects me, irritatingly!

And thank you for hugs.

Hmm, I wasn't aware of the button--I'll have to have more of a nosy, though it seems rather user-unfriendly! Thanks.

[rhivolution]

Yours definitely trumps mine though--so many hearts.

It's not to my liking either. The switch back button is on top right of the profile page.

[rhivolution]

Aye, I've seen other posts mentioning that now that I've done more digging (instead of whinging, heh) but it's not turning up on mine, even after I switched back to old style. RAGING.

Do you see the question mark in the upper right hand corner on the profile page? If you click on it you get a popup that says welcome to the new LiveJournal and at the bottom of the popup there is a button to switch to the old version.

There really should be a club for this. I mean, shouldn't we be able to earn at least frequent flyer miles or something for this shit?

[rhivolution]

Aye, pretty much.

[rhivolution]

Aye--done and dusted but it's still not offering me the old friends look and feel as a setting. I shall resign myself to it, I think!
