I was just going through my friends list doing some clean- up so my question is how long do you wait to delete someone if they are not active, and is there anyone that you will not delete not matter how long its been? I found three friends on my list that have not logged in for 2 months and will not delete them becasue they were my first contacts on here but yet I deleted people who have not logged in for 2 weeks, mainly because they are new friends.

    It depends on the person, but generally about a month. There are some who tend to be away for extended periods as a matter of course, so they get more leeway.

    I clean them out after about 2 weeks or if I keep commenting on them and they never say anything back... I know that sounds horrible but this is a two way street....

    14 minutes.

    studies have shown that people who don't interact with you for 14 or more minutes are either dead, in a coma, or selling crack near a school.

    Depends on whether I've built a shrine dedicated to them in my basement yet. Printing out all their profile pics, gluing them to the wall, lighting the candles, keeping Mr. Whiskers away from the candle flame... that all takes work. I don't want my dedication to be in vain.

    Depends on how much fun they are to interact with when they do log on. Or how hot they are. What can I say? I do love my FL eye candy.

    i've fine tuned my list to a very active bunch and group.

    But I take on newcomers occasionally....if they post "I'm going on vacation and will be gone for 2 months" then i just leave them...or "I lost my job/my mom/my wife/my dog/my god..... and I'm depressed" again, I just leave them on....


    but most others I delete if they haven't been on for 2 weeks....not because I don't like them...but because if you aren't here and I don't know why you aren't here....then I'd rather add someone that WANTS to be here and would enjoy my support and antics....that's all.

    i have CRAZEE antics sometimes....

    I hold on to people I actually recognize as interesting or interacting with me for a good month. Otherwise I usually delete if they've been gone for more than a week. That being said, I do usually check their page to make sure they've not mentioned going away for awhile.

    Don't forget the vial of blood and lock of hair you took from me.
