WTF LJ?! Why are you doing this to me?!  
I've recently created a Dreamwidth account at http://www.dreamwidth.org/

As always, my username is [personal profile] corlee1289

I plan on cross-posting there since I've become paranoid that Livejournal will ultimately crash sooner or later since it's been giving me problems recently...

I'm not crazy right? There are times when I try to log in to LJ and it just won't load.

So for the next few days, I plan on transferring all my older entries to my DW account X3

Mind you, LJ will be what I'll always use, but my DW will be a backup account.

So if in the midst LJ completely explodes, you can always find me on DW <3

EDIT: For those of you who want to transfer your LJ layout to your DW account, please check out THIS, I'm still tweaking my DW layout... But it's not working out... Let me know if you guys do better!!

EDIT EDIT:
 I DID IT!! *plays Final Fantasy victory music* But I still need to fix the profile's bio page...

YEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!! This has been happening to me since yesterday. I have a Dreamwidth account, but it's my writing journal.
[identity profile] corlee1289.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 07:20 pm (UTC)
OH THANK GAWD!!

I thought it was just my internet connection that was going haywire!!

I'm able to load all the other pages but no LJ TT^TT

So I plan on transferring everything on my LJ to DW in case it does spontaneously explode.

The only thing that I don't like is the layouts, I can't seem to customize my DW layout to what I currently have on LJ *sighs*
http://suu9.livejournal.com/[identity profile] suu9.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 07:23 pm (UTC)
There's a way to have your LJ layout on DW--but I don't know how to do it.
[identity profile] corlee1289.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 07:27 pm (UTC)
Ahhhh~

I'm currently using the "import content" function on DW (which is really cool!) to transfer all my entries.

I just need to figure out how to fix my bio and layout to make it like my LJ.
http://suu9.livejournal.com/[identity profile] suu9.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 07:30 pm (UTC)
Someone was able to change my layout for me; the layout I have on LJ is the same on DW. But if I remembered how to do it, I would tell you, and the person who instructed me has taken a little break from posting due to school and work. I'm sure there's someone on your friends list who can instruct you.
[identity profile] corlee1289.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 09:23 pm (UTC)
Hopefully there will be!!

If not, I hope the person who instructed you will be able to help me XD
http://suu9.livejournal.com/[identity profile] suu9.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 09:27 pm (UTC)
I'll try and sift through my comments on DW and LJ to see if I can find the instructions how to change and custom your layout.
[identity profile] corlee1289.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 09:35 pm (UTC)
YAY~!

EDIT: I found it!! But I just need to fix the bio page on the DW account to match the LJ one... Which I'm having difficulty doing...

Hurrah: I don't have to go through all those comments and entries! I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out. Also...ANIME NORTH!
[identity profile] corlee1289.livejournal.com on April 6th, 2011 04:35 am (UTC)
YAY!!

I just have to figure out the bio bit and then it'll be identical!!

ANIME NORTH!!
http://suu9.livejournal.com/[identity profile] suu9.livejournal.com on April 6th, 2011 04:39 am (UTC)
You can do eet! Yes, Anime North. I want to dress up but I fear I don't have enough time to make a costume...I was thinking of making a crude model of the Solar System (Pluto include, dangit) and wearing it, along with glitter to look like stars. I'll be dressed in black, to mimic a Black Hole, which there is one at the centre of the Milky Way, and it's drawing the Andromeda galaxy towards us so they'll end up crashing and destroying each other completely. And then, out of the rubble of cosmic dust and raw energy and chemicals, a new galaxy will be formed...and oh my goodness my head is spinning.
[identity profile] corlee1289.livejournal.com on April 6th, 2011 04:44 am (UTC)
HAHAHAAAA~

But you still have a month and a half to decide if you want to cosplay as something or not XD

I shall do eet!!
http://suu9.livejournal.com/[identity profile] suu9.livejournal.com on April 6th, 2011 04:47 am (UTC)
If it allows me not to give a description like that when someone asks what I'm dressed as, then good. Yes, yes you shall.

Added you :)

LJ has been undergoing a Denial of Service attacks recently, possibly something to do with cyberattacks related to Russian politics.
[identity profile] corlee1289.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 09:25 pm (UTC)
I noticed!!

Everytime I tried to load LJ it would always say that the connection was reset! And then when I went to refresh the page, it would never bloody load!!

But on the bright side, because LJ was down... I was able to study and memorize useless stuff for my Japanese class XD
[identity profile] astrangerenters.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 08:04 pm (UTC)
I'm thinking of doing the same thing. What a pain!!
[identity profile] corlee1289.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 09:47 pm (UTC)
*nods*

In case if LJ ever goes under attack again, at least there will be a back up account ne?
[identity profile] xxmusicmelodyxx.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 08:17 pm (UTC)
Me thinking the same too
LJ has been so annoying lately...
Time to set up a spare account in case anything happens here :S

(Thanks for sharing the link of invitation codes on twitter! I didn't know where to find it :P)

[identity profile] misaki82.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 10:41 pm (UTC)
I was thinking of doing the same thing!
LJ keep crashing on me too!

Joining dreamwidth require a code right?
[identity profile] corlee1289.livejournal.com on April 5th, 2011 10:48 pm (UTC)
*nods*

I think I found a free code laying around somewhere, do you want me to give it to you?

There are still three codes available here that I found that you can use and are hopefully still available when you click on it: http://dw-codesharing.dreamwidth.org/179917.html?view=3843533&posted=1#cmt3843533

But please leave a comment to indicate which code you used, so that others will know that it's no longer available for use <3

LJ keeps on crashing on me as well! Though it allowed me to stop procrastinating and actually do some work xD

Hmm, decided to make a Dreamwidth as well just in case, something might happen to LJ...
Adding you <333

i'm transferring after ytd not being able to be on lj the whole day!! >3<

can you teach me how to transfer the old posts? -.-"
[identity profile] corlee1289.livejournal.com on April 7th, 2011 12:23 am (UTC)
I burst out laughing at seeing your icon!!

Under the "Organize" section, there's something that says "Import Content" XD

It transfers and converts everything from your LJ into your DW account which is really neat! Though it might take some time for your journal entries/comments be converted into your DW account.

Mine took about a day to finish converting since LJ is still sometimes down and there's a queue.

But lookie look! I have all my entries now on my DW account!!
[identity profile] felixkeep.livejournal.com on April 7th, 2011 08:30 am (UTC)
