    Yep - I give them a month

    ^^^^ This! Unless they have posted that they are taking a break... otherwise, I'm assuming they just dropped MFP.

    Been on here 900+ days. It doesn't take much to log in daily....

    I delete people who never ever interact, those who disappear for more than 2 weeks with no forewarning, and those who have very very different goals/lifestyles than me.

    Yup.
    Unless they've stated that they're going on vacation or they won't be logging in for a while.

    If you use the app does it still count as a log in?

    Yes, at least on android.

    Yes. I also delete friends that log in every day but don't interact with me. Once some one asked me why I deleted them.. I felt bad :(

    Unless they have a before spoken reason for not logging in, yes I delete them regularly. Too much drama and I try to bring people back, nothing to do if someone doesn't want to continue losing with MFP.

    I haven't deleted anyone. But I had one guy delete me right after friending me. Idk why. I don't think im that annoying lol. I log everyday. I do my best to be active with every single friend I have and I eat right for the goals im aiming for. I see that same guy on other peoples posts quite a bit. I say "*kitten*" out loud to myself everytime I see his avatar. He either thought I was annoying, didn't mesh with my sense of humor, or couldn't handle my go-hard-or-get-the-fu*k-outta-here mentality.

    yupp. I just deleted someone I had been friends with for a few months. She almost never logs in. She always post horrible eating habits in her diary and she uses TERRIBLE language in her comments. This is not facebook. I was offended and disappointed so I deleted her. No guilt.

    If they haven't logged in for a month then they're gone.

    I never delete anyone, but I get deleted. I had two women delete me a few weeks ago because I stuck up for a guy that stated his honest opinion and people. It was one of those "I need attention" posts! I LOL'ed after they did it. What a joke! Lol!

    I do it for all kinds of reasons - primarily because I feel like each fried deserves some regular attention, and I can't give that with too many friends.

    I have deleted and been deleted by good people. But I just can't handle 200+ friends I have a life too! I still have over 100 and still need to find some arbitrary ways to downsize.

    :(

    Yes, but I've been letting it slide. I also delete for other reasons. In my opinion, there is nothing to feel bad about when it comes to deleting friends.. which I hear is a common issue amongst MFPers.

    Yep, I give them about a month or almost a month,especially if Ive never heard anything from them but I see that they are supporting others I will delete them. I've had some people delete me because for some reason they didn't like me and I'm supportive to all my pals so I don't understand that, it's funny to me. They were obviously my friend for the wrong reason, and most of the time they aren't making any progress.

    Not really...I don't think I've deleted anyone yet. :/
    I knew of a couple who disappeared for almost a year to come back & start anew.
    I guess it's different if you need to make room for new friends because you add so many people,
    but otherwise, it doesn't really bother me.

    Last time I went through my list, I found some who had deactivated their accounts.

    Yep. If they haven't logged in for a while and I've sent a message and gotten no response, I delete. If they post a constant flow of negativity, I delete. If they post every single detail of their day, but don't interact with me ever, I delete.
