What on earth, LJ?

news has become a random splat of happenings on the site and sponsor ad placements, in addition to minimal site news, instead of focussing on site news.

Enh.

But the latest one? Seriously, what were you thinking, LJ? Titling the bit about your war on spambots as "The empire strikes back"...uh, you do realize which side was supposed to be the good guys there, right?

And blocking 30,000 accounts in a single day for being spam bots doesn't give me warm fuzzies. It tells me that you're frantically smacking things down, too fast for me to know whether I trust that you're identifying only spam bots, and if you are identifying only spam bots then boy have you got a problem of epic proportions. Which, no, the fact that you knocked them back out doesn't make me happy they got in, nor impressed.

But really. The empire strikes back?
