Day 83: PSA - Spring Cleaning

[anarchist_nomad]

Posting about the weekend to follow later. Or tomorrow. At the moment, this is just a quick FYI:

Of late, I have found my f-list too cumbersome to follow regularly. This results in many things being skipped or missed. Not good. To make following more manageable, I have now performed my annual[*] ritual -- The Culling Of The F-list. As always, I have based this on (a) how frequently others post (i.e., how much of an investment of my time it takes to read their journal), and (b) how frequently they reply to my entries or comments (i.e., how much time they have chosen to invest in me).

Please be assured that I am not making a statement about anyone by removing them from my f-list. I strongly dislike the terms "friend list" and "defriending" and whatnot -- it sounds so personal! This is just simple mathematics; there is not enough time in the day to read everything... so I have to choose to interact most with those who are interacting with me.

Thank you very much. We now return you to your regularly scheduled Sunday Evening...

[*] I use the term "annual" loosely; the previous culling was about fourteen months ago.

Hope your list is easier to manage now! I tend to just move people off my default filter, so that they can still read my protected entries without me having to have them on my friends page if they post a lot that I have to skip :-) I know that some people (like me) don't tend to comment a lot so I feel mean removing them unless there is a good reason!

Do you think you could return me to Friday evening instead, pretty please? *flutters eyelashes* I'd quite like my weekend over again :-)

*nods* What you say about the default filter makes a lot of sense. I tend not to bother with it much myself, though, as my journal is almost entirely public and, as such, no one needs my permission to wander through my crazed ramblings writings!

*melts*

As you wish, Sweetie! I can't say "no" to those fluttering eyelashes!

*polishes up the time machine and sends you back*

(The weekend was that good, was it? *grin* Next weekend should be pretty spectacular, too!)
