Another Icon-Appropriate Post

So, the new profile pages have gone live, if you weren't paying attention. Let's see how the design process went:

• First beta announcement in lj_design: ~650 comments, mostly helpful feedback.
• Round 2 of the testing process: ~750 comments, mostly helpful feedback.
• Final Round of the testing process: ~500 comments, mostly helpful feedback.
• Announcement that the profile goes live: 4,800+ comments, all of them bitching and wailing that there was no announcement, no testing, "OMG YOU SUCK, LJ!", "DO NOT WANT", etc.

GOOD GOD, PEOPLE. It's ONE page. Now there's evidently a petition. Because those always work so well. Maybe there should be a Facebook group, too.
Speaking of whom, Facebook, Hotmail, and Yahoo! all change their sites, and I'm sure they don't give a crap how many people bitch about it. Why do LJ users believe NOTHING SHOULD EVER EVER CHANGE?

that, and what people are calling "line breaks" which are actually horizontal rules.

Really now, if you're going to bitch design, at least use the right words.
