Haha just joining the dA-wide journal rant.
And testing out this ridiculously stupid update. =_= I have no idea what I'm doing.

So I guess everyone on the site can see your journals now? Not just your watchers?
Well that's really awkward.

I actually enjoyed reading through the old news page. So why the heck did dA think merging the journals and news together would be effective at all? Not to mention that they basically ignored that poll they had up a while ago regarding the matter. >_>;; The admins do know that some people don't use their journals for important information and announcements right? How many journals have I seen where people use the system as their personal diary to let off steam, or fill out those goofy but fun memes out of boredom. Now I'm basically terrified of writing journals with little memes and personal stuff. 

I'm seriously hoping that the folks up at the dA headquarters are actually reading through the ranting journals on their new "news" page instead of just laying back in their chairs with their coffee mugs in the air saying "Well boys, a new update has been made, a job well done!"

I'm usually pretty lenient about dA changes around the site but.... this is just silly.

And if I screw up something while trying to figure out how to work this stupid update, it's not my fault. >.>''
