Abandoned Username fuchs

[fuchs]

Okay, go to the fuchs-LJaccount. Tell me, will this user EVER use this account?

LJsupport seems to think so:
"...there is no way to make an exception to the rules regarding seemingly abandoned
accounts. LiveJournal policy on abandoned accounts exists to protect your journals as
well as everyone elses. If you were suddenly without internet access for an extended
period of time, then you would want to know that your journal would be safe until you
could access it again."

So the name is out of the question. Wanna hear my opinion?

In this case? Utter bullshit

Yeah, that's sadly very true. I do understand why this rule exists. It's just that I know that they already *made* exceptions.
I guess it's bad luck for me that there weren't more people snagging good short usernames that they never ever used again.
I whined about this four years ago and I'll probably do so again four years from now. When he still won't have used it.
Anyway, I chose another name for now.
