Yes, please! I like to think my use of LJ falls somewhere around Patty the Passionate, but I have *one* journal (and 1-2 dead communities; I lost access to one so I don't know if it still counts as "mine" or not). I don't write fic, I don't RP, and I'm not active in any fandom. I post on average 1-2 times per day, some of which are short and some of which are lengthy. I read a bunch of communities and participate in several, as well as in friends' journals. And until I started reading this list, I thought I was a heavy LJ user. I am, however, active in Pagan communities and I know several people who have separate spirituality journals. (I used to have one myself.) Others of my friends have weight-loss journals. In both of these cases, having subordinate accounts or personas would be *fabulous*. Especially if a sub-account could have different settings -- maybe I don't care who reads my daily-life posts but I want my spirituality posts friends-only, I don't want to bother with filters, half of my flist doesn't want to read the spirituality posts, and I don't want to post "hey, check out my other journal!" PSAs all the time to make sure that my friends who DO want to read the spirituality posts know where they're at. Or maybe I want text posting for my main journal, I don't want it for the spirituality journal, and I want tons of icons for both. Or, for another example, I don't want to read my friends' weight-loss posts but can be chickenshit about saying "please take me off this filter" (if those posts are even filtered!), and would much rather have the option of friending or defriending a separate journal without losing this person as an LJ-friend completely. While I understand the draw of having a fandom/RP/fic-friendly journal space, I will be disappointed if DW ends up as a fandom/RP/fic-specific journal space. That's not what I'm here for. ~ Rachel -- http://bohemianeditor.livejournal.com This is not the sig you're looking for.
