The thing about life is :You can rehearse it all you want,
But nobody else ever sticks to the script. So why bother?
wow .. lots of replies since i´ve last been here! As for ljs mine is kessiebabe if anyone wants to befriend me ... fiction Journal is iwishyou_
Susan W. : I think the best thing would be emailing the lj peeps so that they can ban him altogether.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
He hasn't actually done anything be befriend a boatload of folks for no discernible reason. No grounds for a banning from LJ that I can see. I just am not interested in him/her seeing my friends posts.
Susan, I can't remember off hand how I did it but I found the instructions through the help system over there.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

He doesn't see them unless you friend him, though. You always have control over that.
What him friending you means is that you can see his (gender assigned on coin toss) default-friendslocked posts, and that he can see your entries on the same page as all his other friends.

I found a way to ban him from commenting, but not from reading public posts. Which kinda sucks, because if I made everything friends only, then various people like, oh, my husband, who don't have LJ accounts can't read my stuff.

Thing is, all sorts of nutbags can be reading your public posts already.

Always Anti-fascist!
They'd better bring a dictionary...everything in my lj is either in-joke or neologism-a-rific

This is where I am, too. He can't see my locked posts, he doesn't comment, he's not cluttering my friends page and his username isn't offensive. I honestly don't see a reason to bother finding out how to ban him. (Which is not to say that those of you who want more control over your friend-of list than I do are overreacting, just that this is how I thinkabout the mass friending stuff. They want attention, so why give it to them?)

This, too. Anyone in the world could get to your public posts; whether they have you friended or not is immaterial. The important thing is who you friend back.

I know that. But it's one thing if they just happen to click by on random or something. It's creepier to have evidence of an actual creep, y'know?

I read plenty of journals that aren't in my friends list, though. And I don't think that's a rare phenomenon. The ones I keep right on top are in my friends list -- the others I read in larger chunks, and all to themselves.
It's easy to develop a feeling of privacy, but it's so not there.
