And it's apparent move to 'youngify' the look/feel of the whole thing? Well, it seems that the lj PTB have got it in their heads that the user population is so young (18 and female) because they're going off of the stats from the DOB on the profile page.
Which, if you're like me, you didn't bother/actively avoided filling in the year info because you figure that's nobody's business.
Go, fill it in. Uncheck the box that says 'share info with other users' if you don't feel comfortable having everyone know your age. You can always include your month/day in your bio so people know when to celebrate.
And please, pass this on. Maybe something will sway these people.
Now let's see if we can't raise the average age around these parts a bit.
Lj may not consist of only teenage users, but it's hard to believe that it isn't maintained by teenagers. Especially when reading sentences like this from the user pic update page:
"Increase to when you for free, or for userpics and the option to earn or buy even more."
Now, I'm not a native speaker, but is this english? And if so, what does it say?
