Apparently LJ has decided not to communicae with LJ users because that would reward bad behavior.

I think that's the "no, really, fuck off and stop using our site" message we were waiting for.

Aside from outraged, I'm really quite unutterably sad.

Interesting. I was taught a different distinction between et al. and et cetera: namely, that both translate to "and others", but et al. is for describing people, and et cetera for non-people.

et al is definitely people only.
et cetera may be people only in English useage, but there's nothing in its Latin meaning that requires it to be so
