apparently if you dont post, people un-friend you over time.

I wonder why? Its not like my non-updated-journal clutters up their friends view page...

I've never understood that either.

It's an ego thing! They want to get away with having the red arrows.

Hey, so what did you use to send me that email?

What are you talking about?

Hey sir5yko,
Your mutual friend default has noticed that you last updated your journal on Liv
eJournal 5 weeks ago. Be a friend and go post. (http://www.livejournal.com/upda

I've never understood that but it seems like a common thing. I'm far more likely to unfriend someone whose posts fill up my friends page every single day with a bunch of crap.
