New Account Fairy

[hatman]

Inspired by paidaccountfairy and dw_codesharing:

Dreamwidth rocks. But it only rocks as much as we make it rock. As long as it's filled with people who rock.

I don't have invite codes available, but I do have $42 I'm willing to part with. For $3, you can get an invite code and one month's paid time! So that's 14 new accounts.

Comment here. Tell me why Dreamwidth rocks. Tell me why you want an account at Dreamwidth. Tell me something you love about what Dreamwidth is or what it does. Tell me something you'd do with your Dreamwidth account. Tell me why Dreamwidth would rock more because of you. Anything along those lines, or any combination of the above.

Tomorrow, I'll come back and pick 14 of you. I'd make it a contest, but I don't want you to have to wait longer than necessary. So you'll have to put up with my whims. Sorry if I don't choose you from amongst the flood of awesome people who will no doubt be commenting.

However! If you already have a Dreamwidth account and you have $3 to spare... please feel free to swoop in and help make the site more awesome! Pick someone out of the stream, comment to let us know you're taking care of that one, go to the shop, and make it happen!

Oh, yes. To make it happen, we'll need an email address. Somewhere to send the invite. You can post it in your comment. Or, if you're not comfortable with that, send it privately to me (or the nice person who chooses you).

Spread the word if you can.

Let's go make some awesome!

ETA: Comments now enabled for everyone. Sorry about that. I thought I'd fixed the issue, but apparently there was another setting I'd missed.

ETA2: Half given away, but 7 still remain. And I've got a couple of invite codes to hand out, too. So keep 'em coming!

ETA3: All 14 given out. But I do still have a couple of invite codes. And there's the possibility that someone else will come by to grant your request. Keep 'em coming! :)

Also, quick PSA: You're probably better off typing your email address out the long way (spelling out "at" and "dot"), as some have done. Writing your actual email address can leave you vulnerable to spam bots, which are pretty impressive when it comes to finding publicly posted addresses.

I have an account on Livejournal, but now I am looking for something new and refreshing. When Livejournal began using ads, I was quite disappointed, and I believe it's not fair to new users who want an account, but do not have the money to afford one (especially since money is tight for many people these days). Dreamwidth, from what I've read, sounds very nice. The privacy is good, and more importantly, the people running the site are very open and more personal with their members, which I believe is a very important relationship to have.

What will I use my Dreamwidth account for? I will use it as a personal journal or a writing journal (I haven't decided yet). I'm also looking forward to meeting new people who share common interests with me, and am hoping some informative and creative communties will be made.

I will try to make Dreamwidth a better place by being active, and voicing my opinions/comments/questions/etc. in the communities that will be created.

Overall, thank you for this opportunity, and even if I'm not chosen, thank you for offering up such a chance for those who may not have a chance otherwise.

New, refreshing, and ad-free. That's DW, all right. :)

And yes, I've been very impressed with the site owners. And the volunteer developers.

Welcome and have fun. :)

Granted! :)

Thank you for granting me an invite code and paying for a month. Here's my new journal, and once again, thank you so much for being a generous person ^_^
