LJ question

[donutsweeper]

Since my flist knows everything... does anyone know how to quit watching a community while still being a member? When you join it you can choose to watch it or not and can always click to add watching it later, but I can't figure out how to stop watching without leaving the community and rejoining. Help?

aha- I knew you guys would be able to help! thank you!

I had to experiment a bit (used your alien donut comm, actually) but if you go to Home, then under friends, click "Manage" and then uncheck the box for the comm you want to stop watching, that should do it without removing you from the comm.

excellent, that worked, I thought that was for removing me from the comm, not for stopping me from watching it. Thanks!

You're welcome! (And I did put your alien donut comm back on my flist. Can't miss out on the alien donuts.)

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

Yes, those pesky alien donuts haven't been slipping through the rift lately, have they? *sigh* We'll have to work on that some more *sighs* and *nudges plot bunny your way*

I have no brain power right now. Darn it all, I am ready to feel better. I don't know what this virusy thing is, but it's persistent. Fever? Check. Nausea? Check. Less energy than the average tree sloth? Check. It's not that bad, I'd just like my brain back now, please.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

you're still under the weather? Sorry. I offer regular earth donuts then.

And when the virus leaves make sure it returns YOUR brain, not just any old brain... we dont want you turning into a zombie on us

Thanks! ::snatches donuts::

Don't worry, I shall accept no substitute brains. I'm kinda used to this one.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

Unless... you can get your brain and a spare? That could be helpful in certain situations

[http://users.livejournal.com/_medley_/]

Now, there's a thought!

[ayankha.livejournal.com]

try ginger tea or viniger and club soda... either will flush out your system and then you can go on a quest you rescue your brain... or the virus might run off without it :p

[http://users.livejournal.com/_medley_/]

I think I have some ginger tea, now that you mention it. I'll try that, thanks! I hope the virus abandons the brain, or that it's not TOO long a quest.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

maybe the virus will be nice a leave a trail of donut crumbs?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_medley_/]

One can but hope. ...I'm trying to figure out what my brain would leave a trail of and I'm not getting anywhere.

Have you tried going to your manage friends page and unclicking the box that says 'friend?'

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

You are all brilliant, thanks!

[morgynleri]

Should be able to take it off your flist in the manage friends tool.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

excellent! thanks!

sick of being spoiled by Torchwood communities?

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

oh yeah, I got a little fed up with titles being "Question about X" or "X and so-and-so do this" when X was the name of a S2 character. The final straw was the three posts made AFTER the friendly mod "this is a spoiler, don't do it post" had spoilers either in the title or icon.

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

it's kind of sad that the mods had to make a post like that to begin. I tend to slay people in the communities I run when they post spoilers without some kind of cut or warning.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

originally I didn't mind so much, but there is just SO many of them now it was beginning to bug me. Luckily there's still the tw newsletter that will tell me about any fics etc that came out each day.

what comms do you mod?

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I really do need to join that one.

I mod alias_geek and heroes_geek, which are both kind of dead right now, but that's OK.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I'd rather see the fics as they are posted at torch_wood, because there tend to be more descriptions, etc... but torchwood_three is good in a pinch, and there's only the one post a day, which is nice. It doesn't clutter up my friends page

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

yeah, torch_wood kind of kills my friends page, anymore.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I'm torn about the cluttered friends page because it's nice to look and see all sorts of new stuff, but sometimes it's hard to keep up
