DW culture question on friending
Sep. 14th, 2010 10:10 amdbskylerHi everyone,
One of the interesting differences between DW and LJ is how "friending" here is split up into the two halves of "subscribing" and "granting access." While I know how it works in practice, how things work and the cultural norms surrounding those things can sometimes be very different, and I'm hoping that there are enough DW veterans lurking on this comm to answer: What is the cultural view here regarding subscribing to someone's journal without granting access to your own? Is it considered rude, something almost never to be done? Is it considered distancing, something you do only with people you want to read but are pretty sure you'd never be actual friends with? Is it considered a natural first step in the friending process? Or is it considered no big deal one way or the other?
ETA: Thank you everyone for sharing your viewpoints and personal approaches. I feel much more confident now about going forth and subscribing / encircling people. This comm is wonderful.

Sherlock BBC friending meme: if you're into the show/fandom/whatever, drop on by! It's time get communities moving over here, and new friends are always awesome, y/y? :)

I don't like this society. Can I please have interstellar travel now so I can go elsewhere?

travelingmonkeyI've noticed lots of people pimping out their new comms, so I figured I'd join in the foray! haha. On LJ I've been a big fan/user of the various travel comms, since, well, I love traveling and exploring new places and seeing what they're all about. I searched over here and didn't come up with anything. D=
So, I madetravel_europe and world_travel, I hope you'll all check them out and join and use them for all your traveling needs! ^__^
And if you have any other comm related to some sort of travel or travel-related area, let me know, and we can promote each other! ^^

DW has its very own Six Word Stories
So.... get out there and get posting, or you might piss Ace off. She's holding a bazooka, I don't recommend pissing her off :P
