Random memory
Monday, 16 July 2007 11:00Once upon a time, there was a LiveJournal clone site called MindSay. (It's still around, but it's no longer a LiveJournal clone.)
They had customised the site a fair amount; it was the clone that least resembled LiveJournal from all the ones I knew. (For example, they had implemented a new style system which they called "v2" or "S4".)
But some parts were still very similar, including the support board. I did support there for a while, and after a while got supporthelp and supportclose. (There were very few people doing support at the time -- maybe three or so who were at all regular, plus one of the guys who ran the site.)
One request I remember is of someone who was offended by a particular community that counted down the days until Emma Watson (who plays Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films) turned 18 and would "be legal". As I recall, I told him that there wasn't anything MindSay was going to do about the community and that they were free to post their countdown even if he disagreed with the practice.
