Really not cool.

Well I was having a decent day.

Perhaps I was wrong to allow a thread to continue as it did.

Perhaps I should have gone back and friend-locked it which would have allowed the parties involved to continue as they wished.

I know that my journal is largely public and therefore, information can be taken anywhere by anyone, link anywhere by anyone.

But when it's reposted somewhere by someone who can easily ask my permission, someone that I've talked to quite a bit over the last year and a half on various forums, someone who wasn't involved in the discussion, in my eyes a line was crossed. Even more so since the permission of another involved party was asked.

I don't want to be one of these people who needs to lock down their journal.

...lost. what entry or thread was reposted elsewhere, and who felt the need to be so lame?

it was a, er, debate on what is and is not Hellenic polytheism that devolved into somethign of a fight between a couple of the participants. I decided to walk away from the post while allowing them to continue to duke it out, not really considering the possibility that the uninvolved party might come along and post it elsewhere. The person who reposted was not someone who was involved in the discussion.
