As most of you have noticed, I'm cutting down on my internet interaction for offline reasons. This includes putting limits on the details I share about non-fannish things, and trying to interact more with the people who want to read, rather than throwing information out into the wilds of the internet and hoping someone notices.
I made a filter that has since become my LJ f-list, and for any of you who have been defriended because you weren't around to vote, but would prefer to stay on the f-list, I've created a poll.
If for any reason you don't want to fill out a DW poll, commenting to this post on LJ will have exactly the same effect--I'll know to add you back, and you'll once again have access to all my assorted whining and flailing about non-fannish things. Lucky you?
If you're just here for the fannish stuff anyhow, then this should work out fine; you can change your mind at any time and I'll put you back on the f-list.
[ETA1: And done. If you haven't been defriended, you're on the IRL filter and can skip to the poll questions at the end. You can always opt out in the LJ comments, though!]
[ETA3: No, seriously. If you didn't get cut from my LJ f-list, DON'T ANSWER THE FIRST QUESTION. Our wires have not crossed! You're already on the filter! You're confusing my results and making it hard to estimate the groveling I need to complete! (Do not try to sneak into the bribery, I will eventually notice and then I will be sad. LIKE MICHAEL FASSBENDER, ONLY WITHOUT A GIANT SCHLONG.)
You can answer the rest of the questions, though. Those are for everyone. Because I know everyone loves a poll. *g*]
View poll: Opt-In Poll [ETA2: That was a HUGE cut, guys, and I promise that it wasn't personal for anyone, despite my annoyed ranting a few weeks ago (which was about something offline, and a spectacular overreaction at that).
I really do mean it when I say that I just need you to let me know you're still around, and I'll add you back on. Or not, and I'll miss you but there's no sense in just one of us paying attention, you know?]
[ETA4 (and last): I've moved this to show at the top of my journal for this year; I suspect this will become an annual thing, if I remember to do it.]
Or, as I told twitter a few minutes ago:
*braces for avalanche of reciprocal defriending* Dude, this is really HARD. I don't want to dump people by accident!
