Why do you delete people?

Serial status updaters -_-

I'm on the MFP app daily to log my meals and I really don't like being greeted by a homepage that's flooded with status updates from the same person.

15 status updates in a row? Less than 5 minutes apart? It can't be that serious. Delete. -_-

See, that's what these folks said and then I found out they had about 20-30 friends who apparently didn't have much to say. If I am the only one talking of course it would look like I am taking over.

I delete people that don't log on after a week or more, and I delete the people who are whining about their weight and only eating like 600 calories. Many of the girls my age (some younger, some older) are broadcasting their pro-ana, pro-mia lifestyles on this website and that just isn't the place for it. I also do not like to see it in my news feed. Immature people and people that are pro-eating disorders get deleted without hesitation.

I don't often delete, but my computer had some serious glitches and I lost people that way (have a new one now though, watch out! LOL). Seriously, like they would be deleted after the computer threw up... but I didn't re-add them.. figured they would ask and re-add if that concerned. It's the internet and I don't let that get to me... those I have actually gotten to "know" a bit seemed to stay through glitches, so it's all good.

That being said - I have the best MFP friends on earth. There is support, encouragement, sarcasm and smart-mouthing, thong Thursday (not me, but... still love it and hope to be comfortable enough to participate someday, lol), and creative ideas for making things work, etc.. They rock! Don't let the 2 that didn't feel that way about you, get to you...not worth it

So far I have not deleted anyone on this site. On other sites it would be if they were being offensive toward me in some way, either posting on my page or in PMs. But so far so good with MFP!

You know who you are:

Yes two of us deleted you. I only wish it were that easy though!! It has been over a month and you are still complaining and making snarky comments.

If i say it was not you, that it was us, will you stop and go away!?

Doesn't matter i guess. It was totally you.

My MFP friends belong to one of two groups:

1) Supportive people who care about healthy eating and being active
2) Really hilarious trolls

There are a select few who belong to both groups and my world revolves around them

That's my FL too :laugh:

I've only been here for a little over 2 weeks and haven't deleted anyone.

Things which would make me consider deleting someone would be.... the sorts who are proud of eating 500-600 cals a day and think that's great... any kind of nonsense immature pro-ana stuff... folk just eating crap... folk who think dusting constitutes exercise... people who don't log on / haven't been active.

erm... that's about it I think.
