Having finally decided to move stuff from LJ, I went to log in here under the same name (bryangb) to find that I couldn't - it was already taken. I tried requesting a password reset in case I'd set it up but forgotten, but nothing came through, so I realised it was either someone else or was on an email address I no longer have (very unusual, but possible).

So I set up a new account using the same slight variant as on Twitter (bryan_gb), imported my LJ and started importing the few friends still active - only to discover that I did indeed have a password saved for bryangb, and yes I did open this account ages ago but do nothing with it. Argh!!

So if you get two friend requests, that's why. Sorry!

Heh, I came to have a look at this specifically because I was wondering what all the emails were about - I didn’t notice the presence/absence of underscore! Good to have you here.

I guess should get round to doing this thing too, import the LJ, close the LJ down, tell the rooskies to naff off, etc ...

I do feel some sympathy with the Ruskies - LJ became one of the places where the opposition could publish relatively openly. The new ToS are in large part the result of the Putin regime clamping down on that, by inventing new regulations that they can use to shut down the opposition.
