What is the preferred LJ etiquette for behaviour in someone elses LJ?


If you were discussing a show or fandom in your LJ, and a friend of yours confronted another friend of yours for their comments in said post, how would you respond? Would you feel that they were disrespecting your personal space, or do you consider your fandom posts to be akin to a message board, and hope that people feel free to confront other fans in a discussion that you are "hosting"


If any of that makes sense *frowns*

I've had two people go at it in my comments before, and it made me super uncomfortable, because I felt like I should step in and stop it, but I didn't know how, especially since neither one was talking to me.

I've been in a similar situation. I felt unable to speak up as their argument was with one another, and really didn't involve me at all. And I found out afterwards that one of the people was upset that I didn't step in on her behalf, so I suppose that there is a perceived responsibility if you are the owner of the LJ where it all kicks off

To which I would be tempted to say, "But you started it!" LOL! If it happens again in my journal, I would probably try to jump in and defuse the situation, but without taking sides if I could help it. Unless it's really one-sided and one person is just being rude and mean. Then I would probably tell them to cut it out, as nicely as possible, of course.
