Dear LJ

Please feel free at this point to fuck yourself up the arse.

I did the masterlist post. I checked that it had crossposted. I edited the masterlist. I made sure that the masterlist edit had flowed to LJ and, lo, it had!

Yay, I thought. They've finally fixed the issues they were having. I knew they must have been working on it because some of the other issues - like comments not showing up on default view and the 'expand' option actually opening up the thread instead - were fixed this morning.

I posted part 1.

I posted part 2.

I edited part 1 to link to part 2. Oh fuck, I thought when I spotted that the 'crosspost to LJ box' was unchecked. That doesn't look good.

LJ fucking well posted a second part 1.

I delete all of the parts I'd posted, swearing continuously, only to discover that the part 2 post was still crossposting fine. So apparently LJ are deciding to fuck up only every other post now, not on every single one. I suppose that's progress of a sort, not that anyone has bothered to acknowledge the fact that I reported the issue.

I give up. I really fucking do. I'm going to post the link to AO3 as a fic post and try again in a fucking week. Not that anyone on LJ gives a flying fuck about my fic anyway. [/rant]

You are way more patient with LJ than I've been for the last year. :)

If it's any help... I've picked up a DW feature that involves allowing you to edit the crosspost link at the DW end so, if LJ does this, you can manage the links between the two systems from DW.

Mind you, having said that, I'm elbow deep in trying to fix the fubar that was created in trying to allow renaming of anonymous icons so when I'll actually get around to doing something about crossposting is anyone's guess.
