Subscribing vs. Access - What to DO?
May. 2nd, 2009 03:06 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
So, I have likely been overthinking this WAY too much, but I have finally decided what I am going to do about subscribe vs. access here on DW. I am subscribing to a lot of new people because I love the feature that allows the separating of people who I read vs. allowing people that have never shown any interest in anything I have to say read what I do have to say in my journal. I know, I am a weirdo. But I want to know that I have at least a little level of mutual trust with those that can read my locked posts.
What I have decided to do is give access to everyone who has given me access and is also subscribed to this journal. I am also going to give access to people who are subscribed if I do trust them to keep what is behind the lock behind the lock even though that person has not given me access.
However, I don't want to clutter up people's reading lists with posts of mine if they aren't interested in the personal stuff, so if you really do just want to read the fannish content please let me know and I will take you off of my access list.
And to facilitate that I give you a poll:

Thanks for subscribing, though!
And hellow and all that. Most posts at first will be introduction notes etc so you will get a feeling for what/who etc I am.
