WAH! nice good list.

After awhile, I just mute/stop follow those friends I have on plurk so that I don’t get their “spam”. There’s quite a number I have on my friend list that can practically spam 50 – 60 posts within a short span of time and most of it is just saying, I’m hungry, I’m bored, I’m this, I’m that…. quite irritating after awhile.

@Rachel

“Why would you admit to ignoring people you claim as friends?”

Pay attention to the context of this post. Understand Plurk before commenting.

“Sounds to me like you add people to look popular without actually caring what these people have to say.”

your ability to interpret fails it seems. in which part of the post does it says it’s a one sided affair and she only adds people?? and again, understand Plurk before commenting.

“if these people are so ‘annoying’ and ‘boring’ then delete them. you seem like the hugest hypocrit”

This sentence along shows that someone obviously doesn’t know what the real world is like.

get.off.your.computer.NAO.

“you can’t spend all that time writing whiny and obnoxious blogs and then complain that people are whiny and boring.”

“Do you ever have anything nice to say or remotely interesting?”

weeeeeee This IS a BLOG, whadda hell were you expecting?!!? If you like reading things choke full of unrealistic romance and bimbotic plots, go bury your face in your stupid Twilight books.

and yeah, in your own words: “Get off the computer once in a while” if you don’t like whatever is posted here.

Do you ever have anything nice to say or remotely interesting? Why would you admit to ignoring people you claim as friends?

Get off the computer every once in a while and see what the real world is like

Darran: I add people based on the following principles:
1. I know you from somewhere else (same community, somehow).
2. You added me because we have been talking on other threads.
3. You added me and I think your Plurks are interesting.

And all the 148 meet at least 2 of the above. Then they start whining / promoting blogs only / posting links all the time / spamming / etc. So I unfollow.

Maybe you should selectively choose the friends you want to add?
