Just respect what he wants. Part of the reason of getting an updated list is so that people who want friends and want to be added can post here.Lozza wrote:But couldn't you just be part of their friends list?Teancum wrote:Last time around I added a bunch of folks, but I really only game with three people here from Gametoast when I get the chance (they often game together) and no offense to anyone else, but I'd like to keep it that way.

What's the point of that when you don't game with them? It's like having 1,000 Facebook friends, but only actually following/talking to 10. It's a bunch of extras just for the sake of having them. Me, I'd rather keep my friends list down to those I actually game with. I actually just trimmed off a bunch of people I never game with for that reason.Lozza wrote:But couldn't you just be part of their friends list?Teancum wrote:Last time around I added a bunch of folks, but I really only game with three people here from Gametoast when I get the chance (they often game together) and no offense to anyone else, but I'd like to keep it that way.

I think he means he has used a foreign z and cannot type them because he does not know the alt codes.SilvaDalek wrote: BTW, what do you mean by the Z's are an awesome symbol?
At this point I don't even game with these three guys much anymore. So I'll actually be removing all people I don't know in real life except for them sometime soon. I've literally only every played online with them and real life folks, so they're "grandfathered in" and will be staying. Other than that I'm just keeping real-life friends and family. I've been getting more time to game lately, but it's still usually only in 10-20 minute chunks, so I rarely game with anyone else in my friends list.Teancum wrote:Last time around I added a bunch of folks, but I really only game with three people here from Gametoast when I get the chance (they often game together) and no offense to anyone else, but I'd like to keep it that way.
