    They're not your "friends", people! They're are random internet strangers that might become an acquaintence (sp?) ffs!

    My random internet strangers are better than your random internet strangers!

    No, really. Because quite a few of them have become more than mere acquaintances. Sorry that MFP isn't as awesome for you as it is for me!

    I delete people who leave their settings so that every forum post they make shows up in my news feed. I don't need to know how many people they would spank, or who they want to see naked! Don't care what they post, I just don't want it filling my news feed!

    I had no clue there was a setting for this. **goes to investigate**

    I delete people who are attention seekers disguised as people that want to make a change. The ones that are constantly complaining about how they couldn't lose weight this week when their diary shows 1500+ calories over every day. My worst offender was somebody who started a challenge group. She was super perky and always motivating people. As soon as the challenge ended she tried to push everybody to buy her weightloss products and body wraps. I still have no idea how I couldn't figure out she was a marketer earlier on. "Send me 50 dollars and I will set you up with your own optimal meal plan specifically set to your goals" dafuqqq

    I just get a wild hair up my as s once in a while and go on a deleting spree. Nothing personal.

    I have never heard that expression before. Well done, sir. :flowerforyou:

    I thought it was a wild hare up ones *kitten*.... but a wild hair is an even better mental image :drinker: (and I could be wrong because I don't think I've ever seen that expression written down before)



    my funniest deletion story was being deleted for not taking the right side in a star wars v star trek question (I grew up with both. you can't make me choose just one!). I don't think there's anything wrong with her deleting me for that reason either.... it just makes for a funny anecdote for a thread like this.

    “Wild hair” or “wild hare” either way I hope to NEVER experience either up my *kitten*!

    I periodically clean out my "friends" list ... you know, to trim the fat. Too soon? :laugh: Anyhow, if any of the people on my FL have been inactive for 2 weeks or more and haven't provided a reason for their extended absence beforehand (e.g., "I'm going on holiday, so I might not be around very much"), then I nix them. I assume that if you haven't logged in for 2 weeks or more, chances are high that you're not coming back for a while. I know there are exceptions, but I'm not going to sit here and try to determine what the exceptions might be.

    i delete hippies.

    and canadians.

    and people who are inactive for more than an hour.

    and who like brussels sprouts.

    and those who misspell easy words like "PNEUMONOULTRAMICROSCOPICSILICOVOLCANOCONIOSIS".

    and also canadians. or did i say that one already? :huh:

    Aren’t Canadians and hippies one and the same?

    Canadians tend to bathe more often.

    Basically i have no problem listening to complaints when people are trying hard but if you food log is empty and/or filled with Wendy's Baconators everyday then I can't comment (cant say anything nice) and there is no point continuing being friends.

    I'm fascinated by the concept of a Wendy's Baconator ending a friendship.

    I don't even know what one is...

    It was more the key that the "majority" of their diary was 800 calorie burgers married with the complaints.....

    had very few friends, all of whom I deleted when leaving MFP. I didn't like doing that since they were good people.

    It is very difficult being accepted as a friend by the young, beautiful, ripped folks on MFP when you're an older person such as myself. Case in point, read the post near the top of the page where this wonderful, young lady finds men her father's age "creepy". I have hopes, dreams, goals, and a sense of humor just like "the Beautuiful" people, and need encourgaement but most importantly, want to learn new and better techniques. I don't discriminate just because they're younger than my children.

    I've gotten to the point where I try to mind my own business and have the attitude - live and let live.

    As Frank Sinatra once sang (To the Beautiful younger ripped folks................Google him)" I did it my way!"

    Thanks for the reminder, I forgot that needed to delete more people. And then make new ones so I can delete them. Any takers? :laugh:

    What does ED stand for? I've Googled it and it comes up with Erectile Dysfunction (probably not this), Eternal Darkness (doubtful), Executive Directors (could be..)

    If you're inactive for 30 days.
    If you turn out to be just a 'Friend Collector".
    If you feel the need to constantly comment on my food diary.
    If you're too "Canadian".
    If you think you're a witch or if you just turn out to be a man hater.
    Any of these things will cause me to hit the "Smite" key....

    Just sounds like the kind of meal that's interested in travelling to the past and stopping John Connor being born.

    You know you can adjust the settings on your own newsfeed so you don't see those posts, right?

    I delete people if they have checked in for a month and I unfriended a guy who told me not to eat so much (I know when I eat poorly, but I log it anyway).

    I did eat a baconator once - my daughter-in-law gave it to me after she had her weight-loss surgery. I guess she wanted SOMEONE to eat one and I knew it was a bad idea while I was eating it.

    I delete mine if they are not on for over 15 days (it depends tho), people who do not contact me or bother to support me (even when i support them), they treat mfp as a facebook/twitter, or i find out they only add for a high "friend" count.

    I used to delete for inactivity (2+ months), but now I leave the inactives be b/c they don't clutter up my feed, so what's the harm in leaving them there.

    I DO delete for incompatible health/fitness philosophies. I don't want to hear you whine about sugar, carbs, fat, cheat days, binging (1 donut Sat morning), TOM, or small weight fluctuations.

    I DO delete for "why can't be all be nicer" complaints also.

    I regularly have girls' nights and workout with some of these "random Internet strangers." And I recently attended one of their weddings.
