Since i joined mylot i have joined a lot of friends there are a few i keep in contact with through emails and the like .There are some i just don`t even hear from anymore . Do you delete them because they do not respond to your messages or do you just leave them . I was looking through my friends file and there were some who have only posted a few discussions and only made a couple of replies .I wonder if they are still active with mylot or just found it too hard to keep going . Do you go through your files and check them out from time to time or just simply forget about them .

I do go through mine from time to time...i have started housecleaning though..If they have not logged in for 2 months or more I actually delete them, except for one which I really liked, I hope that they log back in one day...

Yes I go thru and check on them. I have even sent some a PM message, they get notified in their reg. email. I miss some of them and wonder what has happened with them. We all do have busy lives and sometimes just don't have the time to visit mylot. I have met some terrific people here, I just wish I could meet a bunch of them in person. I would just love to meet you and visit with you critters, but you live half way around the world from me. Take care Hope, its good to see and talk to you here on mylot.

Oh polly wouldn`t it be lovely to meet some of our friends but this being a world wide involvement would really make it hard i think i have talked to one mylotter who actually lives about 5hours drive away from me which isn`t really that far .Maybe one day our paths will pass you never know whats around the corner . My place sure is interesting yesterday i had another baby joey come to live with me for a while she is such a sweetie when i take her outside to toilet she follows me around she is so good to care for i really enjoy her lots. TAKE CARE AND STAY SAFE

I usually leave my friends there, as I figure that if they went to the trouble of becoming a friend of mine, or I requested it then they are worth it. I have it set to be notified of most discussions that they start, but sometimes there are too many of them. One of my friends had started over 8 discussions between the times I had checked the email which tells me that they had done so. It is a bit much to respond to all, so I picked the main ones I was interested in, and left the rest. It also depends on the quality of the discussions. Sometimes people don't have access to a computer with internet access for a while, so cannot respond then. That happens to me over the Christmas break, so I have a whole heap of emails when I get back. It takes me 2 full days to sort through them all.

BELMCstar i had my messages set to notify me when i got a reply too but one day there were over 300 replies there were just so many that i didn`t have enough time to even read them all and this went on for a week or more i had to eventually turn them off .But i still do have so many friends and most of them will remain with me even though i do not get in here much anymore life has just become so busy and really complicated of late there never seems to be enough time any more . Take care and stay safe

I know, I am one of those you are talking about. I have not been very active lately as I have to finish off my vcomputer engineering diploma this month. I have already given one last exam and another one to go in a month's time and then I will get my DNIIT certificate. On top of it I have registered for Sun certification for java programmer so I have to do that too. So I come and see and leave sometimes or sometimes try and answer too. After few months I will become more regular here till then bear with me my friends.

Hi Hope...Thought I'd reply and let you know I am still alive but not on here for the last few months as I've gone full time at work and that as well as the kids hogging the computer doesn't do much for my cyber social life haha. I still drop in occaisionally and see a lot have gone their separate ways. Glad to see you're still soldering on with life...J

Never had a great deal of friends on my list and expect that most of them would have deleted me by now. Seldom come here these days for several reasons so expect that it can and probably will happen. Would not be surprised if some of the friends deleted me but I only interact with them when I am here by responding to their discussions. Now, I find we are busy with the farm and even though it is getting colder we still have some of the winter vegetables in the hot house. Plus away truck driving a fair bit although that is slowing down for the winter. Then we have a few survey sites which bring in the few extra $'s every month or so. Also we now belong to another forum which I prefer over mylot. It doesn't pay in $ but get gifts from them for being active. Lots more to do there with photo gallery, games as well as jokes, discussions and free stuff. Different atmosphere and they do not delete discussions for no apparent reason, which seems to happen here a lot. Notice every time that I do come to mylot that my points have dropped and that is painful.
