I don't get this trend of leaving icon posts open for two/three days, then flocking them, making public fic posts, then flocking them. It's so frustrating when I have fic saved in my LJ memories, only to find it's been flocked since when I want to reread it (this seems to happen particularly with Supernatural fandom for some reason).

What happened to the days of people locking personal posts only, and leaving fandom-related posts public. I miss them *sighs*

I know! It's annoying. I've noticed it mostly with icon posts. I've always saved fanfic on my computer when I want to re-read it, just in case it's taken down, but I've never noticed a lot of locked fics, except for certain RPS communities.

I've only really come across this with SPN fandom where you save fic in your memories, then go back to find that it's been locked since and almost impossible to get access to. I haven't come across it with fic in my other fandoms, although yeah the locked icons are a trend everywhere
