Housekeeping: We are moving to DW - LJ remains open

[cap_ironman_mod]

Some exiting things are happening at cap_ironman. While the new mods are preparing to bring the daily discussions of bringing_food_to_lab_stony to Dreamwidth, some further announcements will happen shortly. So far, everyone seems to be having fun in the Friending Meme and we hope members of both communities will keep having fun together, sharing one space.

The results of the LJ/DW community poll are in. For years Livejournal has been a good home to the cap_ironman community. (We are inching close to our 10th anniversary!)

Going along with the wishes of the majority, the community will shift its main activities over to Dreamwidth. This means that from this moment on some posts might link exclusively to a Dreamwidth post in the fashion of the currently running Friending Meme. Claims for RBB and BB will happen on the c_im_bigbang community, masterposts made by participants will be required to be posted on cap_ironman - following the end of this round of the Reverse Bang, which is set to wrap up on Livejournal next week -, and the daily discussions will redirect to the Dreamwidth community.

For everyone's fanwork searching needs we have also opened the cap_im_search for your use on Dreamwidth! Please help people find the Steve/Tony things they are looking for over there and direct all fanwork searches to this comm.

We will not close the Livejournal community. As a significant number of people indicated they still preferred Livejournal. The cap_ironmancommunity will remain open for posting. All fanworks, discussions and rec posts etc made by users are welcome there at any time. All relevant mod posts and event announcements will be crossposted to both communities. All fanworks posted on Livejournal will be featured in our Monthly Fanworks Round-Up just as before.

There will be no further imports from Livejournal from now on. We encourage those who have accounts on both pages to crosspost.

We will clean up the links and sidebars on our Dreamwidth in the next few days to correctly redirect to Dreamwidth.

Now we hope everyone is as excited as we are for the future activities in the comm. The Daily Discussion will start on Monday, June 19th!!! Come and join us!

Have fun,
Your cap_ironman mods

*decides to comment on DW rather than LJ*

I for one am very excited.

Question: would you consider running one last import when all the RBBs are up, or should those of us whose RBBs were not picked up by previous imports manually crosspost?

[navaan]

I had considered it to happen after all RBB were in. But at this point there are too many crossposts already and right now with TRB and and everything else, I don't have the time to go through all posts by hand to get rid of the duplicates.

Crossposting yourself is encouraged.

[sineala]

Okay, got it! I have now manually crossposted! I would have backdated it but apparently that's not an option in communities.

[navaan]

It's not an option, no. But it's fine.
