Room on my friends list!!

Hi everyone.. I have recently went through my friends list and taken off people that have not logged in 30 days. So, if you are an active MFP'r, like to post and want to have a better healthier lifestyle, then Friend ME!!
I have been struggling, so it's good to see that others can do this!

Kim!!

    I delete them because they are no longer here and active. If they don't log in to the site then how would I be supportive of them?

    Please note that while I speak in general terms in my post below, I am not referring to 100% of people, but the number is probably in the 90% range.......and with that, here is my post:

    Sorry, but I'm with the OP on this one. My experience with this site is that a message to a struggling person might get them re-engaged, but only briefly. Additionally, most of them aren't struggling, they have either lost interest in the site, don't feel they need to log anymore, or are just plain lazy (there, I said it).

    If they don't have the voices inside of them to keep them going, then some stranger on a website who they've never met isn't exactly going to be that one motivating factor to keep them going. If I have (and keep) the drive to remain healthy, it is me and me alone that will decide whether or not I log in to MFP today, not a message that I may or may not see from LadyKim66 or __drmerc__ or anybody else for that matter.

    Sorry if this sounds harsh, but I definitely believe it to be true.
