Okay. Here's the thing.

If you have an account you created a couple of days ago? I'm not going to approve it for membership. If you have an account with no entries? I'm not going to approve it for membership. If you have an account with no public entries, and all your comms are HP comms? I'll dither over talking to you about it, and in the meantime, I'm not going to approve you for membership.

Why? Because these are all hallmarks of half-assed trollery. (Please. If you're gonna troll, at least try harder, okay?) You might not be a troll. You might, in fact, be a perfectly reasonable individual who has no idea what Harry Potter is and doesn't want to know. If that's the case, and you just happen to have a new or largely empty account, please wait until after all the trollery dies down, okay? Thanks.

People are so silly. Why the frick is everyone trying so hard to spoil everyone else? I am not reading the series but the strife is annoying even me.

They think it's funny evidently. I have it ordered (I'm in Canada now) from the US and won't get it til two weeks after release date. I'm going to have to be some kind of hermit to try to avoid spoilers. Although my flist tends to be very good about lj cuts, you never know. :(

ooh. poor you! i couldn't stand having to wait so long. good luck avoiding the trolls!

but in regards to the actual post: i'm very much in alignment with conuly's idea. trolls and their spoilers should be avoided at all costs. this is one of the biggest literary events in history, let us fans enjoy it!

ps* serendith, your userpic is so appropriate here! love it.

Ultimately, I'm sure it won't work - but I want to say I fought the good fight :)
