Cull!
I just did a small flist cull. Mostly I stopped watching most communities.
This is because I haven't checked my flist in over a month. Possibly closer to two.
The reason for that is that every morning when I would check my flist I would have 2-4 pages of entries to catch up on. Keeping in mind that anywhere from 25-75% of these entries would be fic (a lot of which I'd want to read right there and then) I was spending way too much time going through my flist every day.
So.
Now I'll just click onto the communities every now and then and make space for actual people.
I've cut a few people from my flist but these were mostly people who didn't have me friended back anyway, or who hadn't updated in over a year. If you're one of the later and are offended by the culling, let me know and I'll add you back. It's not like you were one of the ones congesting my friends pages.
I may do further culling in the future. Over the last few years I've changed a lot and so have my interests and the same goes for everyone. We might not have much in common anymore. I might not be interested in your entries anymore. That doesn't mean I hate you or don't care about you, it just means you're not on my list of priorities. Feel free to hit me up on IMs if you want to chat and catch up, but I don't really need to be on your LJ.
So. Hopefully I'll actually start reading my flist again and I'll actually know what's going on in your lives!
