December Holiday Promotion - Points Bonus on all orders!

It's that time of year again -- the calendar year is drawing to a close, the end-of-year holidays are nearly upon us, and Dreamwidth would like to say "thank you" to everyone who decides to give their friends (or themselves) a holiday gift of DW paid time.

From now until the end of December, all orders made in the Dreamwidth Shop will receive a 10% points bonus for future use. For instance, if you buy yourself a 12 month paid account (350 points), we'll give you 35 points to spend later when you complete your order.

This is our way of saying "thank you!" to everyone who helps to support Dreamwidth, and helps us to continue being independent, user-supported, and ad-free. Our commitment to remaining free of fiscal pressure from outside interests and 100% devoted to providing our users the best service possible is only possible because of you, and we'd like to thank everyone who supports us.

Happy holidays from Dreamwidth!

I confused inactive accounts with suspended ones and was about to say how last year LJ did this pretty big purge. Now I remember that over at LJ there was a lot of talking about purging inactive accounts for around 2 years now but they never did it. ij definitely did it. I know sometimes we want things we can't get but I don't think it's right to take away an inactive account. so thank you for being clear on that matter.

LJ's definition of 'inactive' for all that discussion turned out to have been (after the dust settled) not only inactive but basically unused -- containing either 0 entries or only containing the private default entry that ... is? was? ... automatically created for new users.

(I don't volunteer there anymore, but I used to, and I like trying to make sure that the discussion about stuff going on there is as accurate as possible.)

I've had accounts deleted that had been used, I think they changed the policy twice after the huge move to DW. I've lost several accounts that I used for the purpose of posting to a specific community.
