Banned from the Starwars LJ community!? Bahaha

[bonniegrrl]

Sometimes Livejournal is a blast,
and other times I wonder if people have any clue what "community building" means.

Case in point, I reposted this article to the community starwars and no sooner than I did, then one of its moderators -- alleigh -- decided without warning -- to delete my post with all the cool comments form its members that the entry provoked, with a rather curt response:

"per community rules ALL images must be under the lj-cut post deleted, you
may repost with it UNDER the cut"

I responded to her that she may want to be a little bit more personable in her responses (and gee, a warning would have been swell) and that if she's going to be rude to people posting who actually WORK for starwars.com, she should probably not list it as the community's official site when she has no affiliation with us.

And then she replied:
"I suggest you learn to read the rules. Consider yourself banned."

bahahahahaha. too funny.

I admin the freakin official forums and blogs at starwars.com,
and this person thinks I'm not good enough to play nice
with the starwars community on LJ. Wow.

Sometimes, I just have to wonder.

Thanks to that one mod, that community won't be getting any more hints at stuff coming up on the official site -- starwars.com.

Fans will have to go to the apparently more accepting
(and less restrictive) LJ communities like:
star_wars_fans
star_wars_girls
darth_artsy
jedisisters
