No Offense to anyone, but I'm going to start deleting friends.

I have never gone through my list and deleted anyone, although I have looked at it a few times and figured that it needs cleaning up. I try to respond to all discussions that my friends start, if they are in my email inbox then they will get a response if I can say anything worthwhile to it. I would not be offended if a friend deleted me, to tell you the truth I probably would not even notice, because I am pretty sure some may have done so already but I would still just respond to their discussions if I came across them and could answer them. I would only delete people who had not been active for a while though as I love to have loads of discussions to answer.

i don't look for discussions specifically from my friends. sometimes i may find a discussion they've started. but for that matter, they aren't knocking on my door much either. in fact most of them haven't at all. i don't take i personal. we are all free agents. i'm still new been here almost 2 weeks. but i sure hear what you're saying about the ones trying make money. i'm sick of seeing that myself. i was wondering if i'm on the open internet. it's a jungle of make money posts here.

Well, I go in from time to time cleaning up my Friends list as time permits. I usually end up deleting members who have not been active in here for over 60 days unless they were one of my Close friends on here who I am hoping somehow will reappear here and post again sometime. Unless a person really posts something negative here that I disagree with in a personal message, or a New discussion, or in response back to my discussion, I feel we are all allowed to have different views on many things in here. And speaking of New discussions, if someone starts a New discussion that does not interest me I just pass it over, even if it is from one of my close friends on here I really trust and like as well.

I think to call it a list of 'friends' is not quite right and I say this to help with my explanation. I have a very long list of friends on here but many of them are not 'friends' as I interpret the word. They are people who had asked to be on my list and as I very rarely refuse anyone's request they have stayed there because once they they will never get deleted by me. I have many who have not contibuted anything for months. Some are no longer here, be it by their own choice or not, but I will not delete them because, just as happened last week, one came back. I have sent her a PM some time previously as I had noticed her absence. She has had health problems which I would not have been aware of had I deleted her If after joining my list our frienship grows into what I really consider a frienship should be then those friends will know the reasons for which I cannot respond to as much as I would like too. Now for your question. I would not be offended if someone deleted me from their list as it is just that THEIR list to deal with as they consider correct. If I am on their list and they decide to delete me then that is fine as obviosly it would mean that during that time we had not become friends. I am one who starts more discussions about money-making topics than other things but my friends are aware of my reasons for doing so and I doubt they would delete me. Should this happen I would have no bad feelings whatsoever. As I have ALL my notifications turned ON, should I get deleted it would just mean that I would not be as up to date with what that person was discussing as I would have been before. That user would then lose any hope of seeing my contributions in their discussions solely because I would not be aware of them. Having said that, I hope you can put up with my money-making topics for just a little longer otherwise I won't be aware of ANYTHING you do My time is so limited that I very rarely visit the interests unless notifications of friend's discussions guide me. Happy posting!

That's okay. Mylot friends do not personally know each other anyway, so it's going to be acceptable for me in the end. But to be honest, I may feel a little bad at first if I'll be one of those but at least, it's a good gesture to let the mylot public know why you are deleting them and not just deleting them without any clue why you did. They are saved from the possible conclusion by others that they are not likeable at all.

I try to responded to my friends disscussions first! Then new discussions. I wouldn't like all the money making deal either! It is okay sometimes but not all the time!

I have gone through a few times and deleted a few friends that I know are not active anymore. If they have not logged in for a few months then I will delete them.

Well obviously I am not on your friends list as I have only been here 2 days. I do see what you are getting at however. I will be joining more interests today. Yes I do internet marketing but I am also smart enough to realize thats not for everyone. I do see the value of mylot for my business excursions but I also see the benefit for many other reasons as well. Of course there are obviously many great friendships born right here on mylot. Plus there is a wealth of knowledge being displayed. So I will take your post as advice. I will still be making my money online posts but I will ceartainly get active in other interests as well Thanks dale

it's everyone's choice either to do it or not (deleteing) i never delete friends from my list but i will observe all of them if they participate my discussions. i only boycott my friends discussions if i found him/her not participating to my post. i have friends on my list who post uninteresting topic about his daily activities but i found her not even responding one of my discussions so i boycott her post. if somebody delete me to their list, it's fine for me. maybe she/he doesn't want to received my respond because all of my friends, i turn on their email notification. i depend my respond to my notification. i am active to myLot everyday. so i assure to all my friends that i will participate their post.

at moment since i am still building up my friendships i dont really have a problem although some make discussions more then will respond lool need ones that enjoy doing both hehe.. Mind you i do have quite a few good ones that becoming nice friends, and do make discussions i can respond to that are not just money making.. Can understand how you feel because that would be boring after a time, and that be people i feel wont be here long.. maybe only here to find something better.. I do respond to the discussions i am able to, in friends list.. And i expect or hope for the same in return.. As for being deleted well i think i would feel quite upset, if i notice someone did me.. Anyway if you looking for fresh new friend hehe.. can add me if you like
