Deleting Friends

CaseyP1207

What reasons do you delete friends on MFP? I like to keep a small group so I can easily support, motivate and get to know people. Here are some reasons why I have deleted:

1. Not logging in consistently. Long gaps in activity.
2. No communication. I don't expect daily; but some is necessary.
3. Bashing on other people. I can take it if you bash on me; but don't knock other people (I'm protective like that).

I think that's about it. This was prompted because I deleted someone and she asked me why. She had constant gaps in her log ins. She would frequently go weeks at a time w/o activity.

Just one reason: over 1 month of no activity. I go through my list about once a week.

Usually because we never interact. I like to keep my FL kind of low.

I haven't deleted anyone yet. I suppose I should go through my friends list. I do have to admit, I suck at commenting. But I'm on here daily.

If they annoy me.

If they never talk to me.

If they never post a new status.

If they haven't logged in in awhile.

If we have nothing in common.

That about covers it.

i had a total freak out last week, after a bunch of drama (partially self-inflicted), and i cut nearly 100 people. I've worked through it, and hope i've learned enough from it that i don't go through that again!

other wise, just the usual reasons - lack of activity or interaction is probably the most common for me.

1. Long absences from the site.
2. Way too many posts or obnoxious/needless postings...nothing in particular, just if they come to annoy me or I get tired of seeing them on my feed saying the most inane, inconsequential *kitten*. Especially if they're not funny. I need to be entertained.
3. Rudeness to other members, whether they're my friends or not. I don't need negative or abusive people on my list.
4. Lack of interaction.

The same reaons you do. I posted a status about it last night and said I would give it 2 days to see if anyone wanted to start giving me the motivation I give them. So tomorrow is the day I will be deleting!

^ If i didn't log on regularly I wouldn't be shocked if people deleted me. This isn't FB... we are here to support and motivate one another I'm thinking of deleting a couple people but I'm really concerned about one of them so I may give her more time...

And I just realized either someone deleted me or they left MFP... If she deleted me it may be because she didn't like my enthusiasm

ILoveTheBrowns

when they tell me theyre knocked up with my child

still_crafty

if they don't tell me I'm a pretty little snowflake within an hour of being added to my FL they get whacked.

Mama_Mila

People who never log in get deleted...
People who make statuses every 5 minutes get deleted...
Oh, and creepers get deleted often.

If you haven't logged in in over a month.. You're gone.

alot of people are afraid to say if they 'annoy you' I totally agree, I have deleted people who have irratated me, constantly contradicting their previous statements and attention seeking. I may sound bitter, I try to encourage people, but when it is blatently obvious they just want a reaction I wil delete, as I like nothing but possitivity in my life, no negative nancys please lol

If someone posts something seriously offensive (rarely happens, but has) or if someone hasn't logged in forever and I have absolutely no memory of ever having had a conversation with the person, so I don't even know how he or she ended up on my FL in the first place.

Danardeener

1. I have a one month rule too...If you haven't logged your gone;

2. People with eating disorders;

3. Lack of support reciprocation;

4. Meatheads; and

5. Creepers.

I have deleted some for being stupid, saying ignorant things that are completly uncalled for, not logging in in a while, people who are just friends with me to add to their list (cause i guess its a contest). I like to have people who comment or will drop on my profile and say hey... I like really active and supportive people, and I have a bunch on mine that are not.. thinking its time for a clean out! :drinker:

Foxypoo61287

Naked pictures. If you haven't sent me any revealing pictures...I'm calling my mafia men to get you

TylerJ76

Cause I can.

I had one that sent me 19 messages asking why I deleted her...
