sgorny | Just a general question....

autonomist posted today about people taking parts of locked posts and placing them in various unlocked places. This made me start thinking (never a good thing!) and led to this question...

If you make a Friends-locked post, and someone wants to add it to their Memories section, is it imperative that the Memory also be Friends-locked? Because the link obviously won't work if the viewer isn't Friended also.

The reason I ask is because I have quite the huge Memories section, and I'm always adding new stuff I like to it. I usually am going pretty fast through my LJ F-list, so most links get added as Public.

This probably isn't a problem, but I wondered if people who F-lock their fic mind that my Memory link to them isn't F-locked. I'm thinking more along the lines of RPS fic, where some people might not even want anyone seeing their name listed along with the RPS title/rating.

If you have a problem with this, or I'm stepping on toes, please let me know. Otherwise, I'll keep soldiering on.

Thanks!
