The stupid turned around crush meme

[forgotten_aria]

I'm vaguely dismayed that people are using the free crush counter. It feels like you're encouraging this slimeball. He's also shown to be exploitve, for all we know he's collecting further data (including things like IP addresses or whatever) on people asking about their crushes.

However, every time the free thing is used, it potentially costs him money. So maybe I shouldn't complain.

And for anyone who was curious, I don't have any secret crushes. I can't remember if I actually filled this out or not, but there wasn't any new information in it if I did.

EDIT: the page asks for your gender. He doesn't need your gender to give you the numbers or the list. He's collecting lj->gender mappings. I wonder to what end.

That's not a hugely bad idea to just tell them.
That would also give a chance to provide clarification
to those people as much of the time it just meant
"this person is cool" or "this person is very attractive". Hm.
