  Hey, all. I’m using the import function to bring over the content from my LJ, only to have it successfully bring over 100 posts and then get shut down from LJ’s side for making too many server requests of LJ too quickly. It’s said to try again in ~30 minutes. I’ve even gone four hours, and get the same thing, and only the initial 100 posts have been imported all day. Also, I’ve got about 4500 posts to bring over – 12 days to get that done is… unreasonable.

  Is there a solution? I have an .xml file of my LJ but can’t find an appropriate page to use to upload it.

  Many thanks

  Tried again this morning to continue my import and received the same notice. I looked in Livejournal’s FAQs database and found nothing useful about this and I’ve trawled the web some, as well, to no avail.

  What’s going on? How can I make this work?
