Oh yeah, the LJ gifts thing? Agree withrho; if you know me well enough to want to give me a virtual gift, then Amnesty are here and Internation Red Cross/Crescent/Crystalthingy is there. Just tell me, I'll be happy. Or just give me money, I'm skint. But virtual flowers in my U-info? Some like it (I sent some, $1 to cheer a friend up is something I can just afford at current exchange rates), but me? Nope. If someone gets $10 gifts in two weeks, they get 2 months paid time, which usually costs them $5. Nice way to expand the business model Danga/SixApart. I'll pass, thanks. Someone let me know when there's an opt-out live?
