Okay, listen up. Last night, I was reading my flist and I realize this person (not telling names)'s posts were sort of annoying. Then I notice this person never comments in my LJ, and I never comment in his/her LJ. I wonder, why the hell is he/she still in my flist? Why the hell am I still in his/her flist?
It's a complicated thing, the friending. 85 journals have friend me. No, I'm not bragging. I hardly know half of them, and this is sad. There are some lurkers that might be lovely people, but they never comment and I'm too shy to read their own journals to take a decision about me adding them or not. And there are cases when I forgot to add people I should've.
Hence, I'm restructuring my flist: adding some, removing some. I have no problem if you still want to read me, as this LJ is 90% public. But I'm sort of selective when it comes to friending back.
So, here's the deal. LJ friends and lurkers, I'd like you to take your time and reply to this post. All of you. I want you to try to convince me why should I keep/add you. This is, of course, if you want me to read you. Try with fandoms and tastes in common. Samewise, if we've been mutual friends and you feel we have nothing in common, that you don't comment here anymore and I don't comment in yours anymore, and always wanted me to defriend me, this is your chance to both of us do it in a civilized way. Comment so we can cut the links.Of course, there are exceptions to the rules. If you are always replying to my posts, or you don't but you know I like you very much, you have no need to go through this, as you're staying ♥ Or if your journal is about fandom-goodness (news, scans, translations) and I added you first so I could keep up with your posts, the same: you don't need to go through this crap.
(you can still try to play along and amuse me, though XD)And the last decision will be mine. Even if you comment or don't comment, I'll still keep or delete you, add or not add you, during this week time. If you find yourselves not here any longer on Monday, then it's because I had enough of you and defriended because you didn't convince me otherwise. Please, no complains. Also, an only-personal journal, with no fandom references ever, is not likely to be added/kept, as I'm afraid I'm too lazy to read "dear diary" sort of posts every single day.
( Traducción en español )That's it, comment now.
