I want to add that I really dislike the whole "we have to judge what counts and what doesn't count on a case by case basis" regarding threaded activity (and now apparently participation in logs, I guess...). I am the type of person who wants to know that something has been cleared and not have to worry about it so that I can just have fun without stressing. This does feel very arbitrary (and out of the blue, might I add), especially when joint posts over the journal system are used so frequently with room filters and stuff and both people/everyone in participation there has it count toward activity--even when it's only a short scene that doesn't continue into the comments.
