Ack, I hate doing this - but here goes:
I'm currently on a mission to cut down on distractions - online and offline - and I'm afraid as part of this, I need to make a friends cut. I know I could just scroll by my flist or use filters, but my silly brain tends to get stressed out at knowing there are so many posts on my friendspage and I hardly ever comment on any of them, so I'm afraid this is the only way for me to bring a little more peace and quiet to my frazzled brain.
The cut will happen within the next half hour or so. Obviously, people I interact with more or less regularly on LJ and/or other venues (e-mail, forums) will be staying on. I can't really give you any firm criteria I'll go by otherwise, I'm afraid - current-ish level of interaction plays a role of course, but isn't the only point. I hope those who are unlucky and get unfriended won't take it personally; I'm sorry if you're disappointed, but - see first paragraph. I'm not posting that many flocked entries anyway, so unless you're interested in my pretty boring personal life (and feel free to say so if you are and have been unfriended), you won't miss much - and hey, getting less lameass comments (if any) from me can't be that bad, right?! ;)
In the same vein, I give everyone amnesty to unfriend me - whether I keep you on my flist or not. No hard feelings. :)
All the best to all of you, and thank you for making my LJ experience such a great one!
