Hello Superstars!
As you may have heard elsewhere, LiveJournal has introduced a new feature as part of Release 93: Community Email!
This feature allows owners and maintainers of paid and permanent communities to send emails to all community members. There is a limit of one email per day, and all emails will automatically contain opt-out links.
We want to use this new tool in a way that will be helpful and awesome, rather than annoying, so we want to talk it over as a community before we begin sending any emails.
We're putting some basic questions in poll form here, but we'd also love to hear more detailed feedback in the comments.
