Clearing out your gaming friends lists?

Send the inactive people messages that say if they come back, to add you as a friend.

Ugh, I definitely hate that :. But, warlord_evil's solution seems reasonable.

Some people just add me and then i hardly ever hear from them again, except for them stupid chain messages. If these friends havent been online for 3/4 weeks, I delete them!2010-02-25 12:07:00

I don't accept invites from people who add me with no explanation as to who they are and delete anyone who's been inactive for more than two months. It's a pretty solid system. 2010-02-25 13:21:00

Indeed, I do the same. Two months of inactivity gets you canned, unless you're special. (Don't worry Ninja, I haven't deleted you)

Incoming requests with no explanation are automatically rejected unless I recognize the sender from somewhere (i.e. LBPC).

Friends that I make through games I no longer play online also get the can. It's hard enough to scroll through my friends list as it is, I prefer keep my contacts relevant.

i do the same, anyone who has not warned me and is inactive for over weeks, deleted

I have 100 friends and often have to delete old ones to make room for new.

One of the reasons I've kept a lot of the people on my friends list is so I can see what they're playing and ask them what they think of a game if I'm interested. Although, I do have a few that need to go.

When you delete someone from your list, do they get a notification?

Ya, this is why they need to add a feature for organizing your friends into groups. It would make things much easier.

no, the only thing they see is "X is offline", so they probably would not be able to tell from that.

I have about 20 friends, mostly from people I know or people who I talked to on some game. I also have friends that I met online when we were pwning noobs in a helicopter on the BF: BC 2 demo.

It was kind of weird when a guy I talked to on the BC2 demo and I started talking about cheese. Funny how random the world can be.

I kinda try to get all the best creators in LBP on my friends list. Just because they're the kind of people I'd like to talk and hang out with.2010-02-28 10:27:00

I just counted my friends Iist.Here is the total-61.I bet 3/4 of my friends list is people I don't even hang out with.

I'm gonna put down a date every month to delete stuff on PS3 that I absolutely do not need.
