Deleting MyLot Friends

I posted a discussion similar to this a few days ago. I had never done this either in the 3 years I was here. But I deleted someone for being very RUDE to me. Well after I did that I decided I would go threw my entire list and get rid of some people who were not active. I do deleted people that hadn't been here in over a year. I left some that hadn't been here in 11 months just in case they planned on coming back. I left some very GOOD true friends on my list even though I hadn't heard from them in years. I still accept people and really my friends list here is much different from any other site because almost all the people on my list aren't even really friends per say,more like acquaintances. I think I will go threw mine maybe once a year or whenever I get bored and just need to do some tidying up without having to actually get up

I hae never done this but mainly because I will leave mylot for 6 months because I get busy with my own website and life in general I just recently came back after a year and a half. So I am glad all of my friends had not deleted me.

I try and go through my list (which is quite long) at the beginning of every month. I remove those that have lost their account and those that have not logged in for over six months (unless I know the reason for them not being here). I keep the others even if I don't see them posting much as many come back. Some of those who do log in but never post I will remove once it gets to six months too. I think the friend list is a very personal thing though. That is just how I deal with mine

I rarely visit my friends list here on mylot. But the moment I sign in, I always look and read at the post that are started by my mylot friends and If I find something interesting, then I post a reply. But I have never deleted any one of my friends here.

I am new here at MyLot and so far has only 4 friends. I'm not likely to delete them as I see they are active. However, should I see some who are inactive for a long time, I will probably do the same as most of you do - remove them from my list.

I'm a newbie here and still earning some trust and friends. I really don't want to remove them also. But in my experience with other sites like this one, arrogant and untrustworthy friends are scattered all around. Hope that I will not be considered as one of them. Thats why I make it sure to visit and comment and sometimes get contact with my list of friends. And hopefully, they would do the same for me.

I do this every once in a while but they have to be not signed in for like a year or more before I delete them. I did this recently and found a lot of accounts that had been deleted. [b]~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS**[/b]

In all the time that I've been here I've never bothered to do this. I don't see the point in deleting people from my friends list just because they are inactive. It doesn't matter if they've been gone for years. I won't delete them. Heck, I've seen some older members come back after they've been gone for some time. So, just because they may look like they are gone for good, doesn't necessarily mean that they are gone forever. Happy mylotting!

I just cleaned my friends list a few weeks ago... and it was not an easy tasks... because i had like more than twenty pages there... well, i decided to remove those who have lost their accounts... and there are a lot of them there... then those who haven't logged on for a year... and those who only have like 1 to 50 posts and hasn't logged in for months... Well, if in case they return and be active again here in mylot... they always send a friend invite... and i will be glad to accept again...

Hello Speakeasy, How are you doing this evening? Well for me I don't believe in going through and deleting friends, I feel like things can happen and maybe something has come up or maybe they might be kind of shy or something. I guess anything could happen but I don't believe in deleting them not unless they start acting mean and being disrespectful. That's probably the one way that I would delete someone. Even at present i have a few that pending being deleted. But overall I think that giving them a year to come back in a long enough time because if they haven't come back in all that time, they're probably not coming back and they probably just found something to do that they enjoy doing more than mylotting. Anyways this was a great discussion and I'm glad you brought it up. Take care and please feel free to add me as a friend. I am normally about as active as I can possibly be all things considered. Take care................. CC!

Hi speakeasy, I do this regularly to try and keep control of the numbers and add new friends. If someone is on the list and we don't meet in each others discussions and have different interests they go, as I like to know something about the people on the list, rather than just have a list of names. I like to work from alerts and don't want to be swamped by 10 discussions a day, none to my taste, cluttering up my mail box. I'd rather build a rapport with people than have a list full of nothing but names and avatars.

I have never gone through my friends list, and maybe I should, as there mght be some there that aren't active anymore. I have 180 friends, so needless to say that it will take a long time to go through all of them. It might be worth it though to rid the ones that aren't be ing active and have't been in here in a long time. I enjoy getting friends, that I just never thought about seeing which ones are still posting in here. Now, that you have made this discusson, I will probably start going throught them. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

Well I am just new here. I mean I got signed up last June and I noticed that some have not been active lately. But I do not want to delete any of them. I am sure that they will be active in the future.

hi,i never try to delete friends,even i am new.The logic behind this is i think twice before accepting friends,i mean in future also.Some times,few members coming back after few months gap alsp.All the best and happy mylotting.

I went through once and deleted everybody who had an inactive account. That was it so far...
