Impending MySpace Disaster?

[dotinthesky]

Why are there ads appearing everywhere on my LJ? And why are there links on people comments (and even in my userinfo) leading me to crappy advertisement pages?

Sort it out, Livejournal! It's shit.

They do have a feature for non-paid accounts where you can get some of the paid features by enabling ads, but only the logged in user should see these, and possibly visitors to their journal (except for paid users who'll never see ads).
I'm not sure it's intergrated yet, but http://community.livejournal.com/lj_biz/236361.html has some details.

I was just looking for that url. Haha. My friend had pointed this out on her journal and how annoying it will be.

Woops, forgot to log back in.

I don't like making anonymous posts.

If I can't get rid of the ads, I might have to get a paid account... or leave LJ for good. This new feature is really annoying.

Is it appearing on yours too? What does it say?
