Tempest In A Teacup
It appears that this whole "unfriending" thing has caused a massive over-reaction. So - I am NOT locking this post so no one can misconstrue my words. Here are my thoughts:
1. If you are not contributing, you are (in my mind) eavesdropping. That makes me personally uncomfortable - makes me feel like my words/thoughts/actions are being monitored. Call me paranoid but there it is.
2. LJ - for me - is about communicating with people I would either (a) never have met in the first place or (b) to keep up with people outside of the trials. Key word here is communication: see #1.
3. I am sorry if I hurt anyone's feelings - that was not the intent. I feel like someone who has been holding out treats for months which has never been taken or acknowledged, and then, when I put the food away, get a guilt trip for not holding it out there longer. When there is still no intent to actually take it.
Enough said.
