    I quit for a while, my house flooded and was unlivable, life was generally pretty crap, and I wasn't around for about 6 weeks. When I came back, I was so grateful for the friends who hadn't deleted me and welcomed me back, that I stopped deleting inactive friends unless I can look at their profile and not actually recall interacting with them.

    I've had a fair few "Hi I'm back" posts from friends who've been away and they seem to be happy to be welcomed back, too. I dunno, I feel like insta-deleting anyone who isn't around for a while is kind of like you've turned your back on them for 'failing'. It's no skin off my nose to have their profile sitting there in my friends list. God knows, I've had enough false starts in my weight loss history.

    Agree. I don't usually pay attention to who has been gone and for how long etc. I got enough crap to worry about in my own life. :flowerforyou:

    You have no idea what they're doing. Don't be so quick to assume they just quit.

    Also, my friends are locked in my basement. :love:

    I, for one, am glad you finally upgraded the wifi. It was really slow with all of us down here.

    I don't care if they log in or not. I've gone 3 months without logging in, but I've lost 52lbs this year. I only log in so often at the moment because I have a boring job and too much time on my hands, so I like to troll the forums to make my day go quicker.

    I rank my friends based on how useful I think they'll be in the Zombie Apocolypse. Happy to have as many of you Americans as wants to add me, y'all got guns right?

    damn right, and we ain't afraid to shoot 'em, either! :laugh: :drinker:

    I live out in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by cows. Come the apocalypse, c'mon over to my place. You get a shotgun just for showing up, but we expect you to hold your own

    Thanks Jen <3 I grew up on a farm, and I've played CoD, I can shoot :)

    Taking up space? Really? How hard is it to just leave someone on your list whether they log in or not.

    One of my most consistent and "oldest" friends disappeared over the summer. I shot her a quick note which she didn't respond to, so I just shrugged and hoped she was OK. A month or so ago she turned up and said she had an injury and decided to take the summer off. Now she's back at it with a vengeance and giving me supportive notes every day. If I had arbitrarily deleted her we wouldn't be able to get back in touch and continue our friendship. And that would have been my loss.

    Crikey! I've been signed up for 3 days and thankfully been on every day since so can breath a sigh of relief that I won't be deleted..... :smile:

    I remove people who disappear for 30 days or more with no notice. It's not because I don't want to be friends with them but when I look through my friends list it's demotivating for me to see friends who seem to have given up, and it makes it more difficult for me to continue logging in every day myself.

    I delete people who have not signed in for over an hour who fails to text me with their whereabouts and who fails to offer a legitimate explanation. I require stringent dedication to the journey among those I count as my co-gladiators in the fitness coliseum.
