The only objection of note (when looking at the comments that were not a misunderstanding of the suggestion) was mine, that some comms might want certain deleted-and-purged members for sentimental reasons. But one does have to let go sometime.
The only objection I have now would be that some suspensions are not permanent, but there is no way (as far as I know) to tell a permanent suspension or a suspension that is likely to be permanent from a suspension that can be cleared up by the user once they have the chance to speak with Abuse.

An alternate option for the sake of such sentimental community owners might be to rather than automatically removing deleted members from the lists, have a fast and easy way to do so without having to load the entire friends page?

Yes - I'm one of those people whose pages take forever to load if I want to remove friends. So +1.

For communities I think it makes perfect sense and particularly if it makes those pages load faster I'll be all for it.
For what it's worth, I have a friend who committed suicide still on my list. It's kind of nice to still have her there and remember when I look at my profile. I'd be a bit sad to see her removed. Although of course that isn't the end of the world.

I do agree on the wanting to have control over which journals stay, so I submitted a suggestion a while ago about an alternative to provide a link to add.bml on the page that says that the journal is "deleted," "deleted and purged," or "suspended." It hasn't been approved or rejected yet, though.

Your additional suggestion makes perfect sense to me.

(Also, I gave outdated info. Reports of deceased users need to go to support@livejournal.com, not webmaster, though they used to go to the latter. I forgot they'd changed that.)
Thanks!
