I've been looking some pages back and couldn't find anything resembling my question, so sorry if it's been asked before...

I'm moving here permanently from LJ and think about importing my entries. now my question is, if I import entries with comments, do the commenters (from LJ) get somehow notified about me having an account here on DW? Like OpenID or something? I'm not very good with such things... ^^ help is greatly appreciated. tia. :)

If you don't want the comments, you can import the entries but not the comments.

When you do import comments and there's someone who commented who doesn't already have an OpenID account here, one is created on their behalf, but they don't get told it's been made; it just sits there until they decide to drop by and log in using OpenID (if they ever do).

Unless they've set up an email address on their OpenID account (which means coming over, logging in, and setting it up) they won't even get notified if someone replies to a comment they've left over here.

I didn't realise this either! Heh, my LJ friends who don't want to come to DW don't have an excuse to comment on my DW entries that I post here and point them to.
