The worst part of SM is actually the people who go "omg why does this person tweet/say this shit" instead of just wordlessly unfollowing/unfriending/muting.

It's because we're your fucking friends, that's why.

You don't go unfollowing/unfriending/muting friends just because you disagree with what they might be saying. That's some middle school shit right there.

[Charismatic]

For real and for truth.
What good would unfollowing/unfriending/muting do if the person actually wished to communicate with you as friends would/should/do?

[Charismatic]

Of course you don't have to worry about that with me but that was a damn dumb statement, chica.

[Ryko]

I've only ever blocked or unfollowed two people that werent bots, but not without explanation.

Granted, they may not have even cared.

[Sera]

Because I'm secretly looking forward to your next meltdown and curious about the level of triviality it will be taken to.

Then why complain? It's entertaining. Glad I can be of service.

[Sera]

Not all of you are lol

what on earth happened in this sentence

Then again, if "most" of their content annoys you, why would you say they are your friend? That's an acquaintance at best. Facebook has groups for that yo.

[Ryko]

Someone can be easy to get along with through another avenue of communication but just end up being insufferable in another. Ray thought he was going to hate me before we met in person, and Ivve had that whole "I have a feeling we wouldnt get along" thing too.

I can't speak for Ivve on this but I don't think it actually turned out that way.

Not disagree-- but if someone says that another person's content is "annoying" etc, why not mute them? I certainly don't mind if someone does. SM is about sharing content. If you don't appreciate someone's content, SM just becomes another grueling obligation instead of something you enjoy partaking in. Again, I haven't followed Rudy in months. Doesn't mean I don't like him as a person. I do. Rudy is cool. I just don't enjoy his feed. That simple.

[Sera]

But to be like "omg we aren't friends because you unfollowed/muted my twitter feed!" -- I don't get that. Really? That seems more sophomoric than just unfollowing because you don't appreciate their feed content.

When you UNFOLLOW on twitter, you UNFOLLOW IN REAL LIFE? Just makes no sense to me.

[Charismatic]

what on earth happened in this sentence

Your mental mind got a work out because it's fat and lazy.

[Linliel]

Well, I sure as hell never want to have another in depth serious conversation with you Sera, you can't seem to understand that people might disagree with you without being "against" you, and that it's not the be all and end all to life. And it certainly shouldn't devolve into personal attacks, and come above a friendship. But yeah, I guess it's pretty plain you don't give a shit, so I'll just not bother any more. If you want to work things out with me I'm happy to give you the chance to, cos I do like you and think you're generally pretty awesome, but shit just went too far this time, and I'm hurt and upset about it because I thought we were friends. I don't need people who do that in my life, honestly.

If you think that, that's your deal. I actually didn't take any of it personally. You did. Sorry you felt that way, but when something is fucking dumb I'm going to say so. If you're (royal you) sensitive about it then that's unfortunate. If you (royal) disagree, fine, doesn't mean I'm going to agree with you either. If I think you (again, royal you) jump to conclusions without considering how very little information you have, I'm going to say so. If I don't particularly give a fuck about you, I won't bother to even tell you. if a personal attack is something like "I think people who get all self righteous without having proper information to make a good judgment call are being really stupid" then well, I guess you felt it applied to you. If I'm being a bitch, my friends tell me so. If I'm jumping to stupid conclusions without having all the info, my friends tell me so, and I want them to. It sucks that you are upset and hurt. Sorry for that. But honestly if I have to walk on eggshells with someone, I don't consider them my friend. I consider them an acquaintance. I want to hear what the people i love really think, not make niceties. That's me. If that's what you want from your friends, then I guess you're my acquaintance, and that's fine with me, i don't take that personally. I had dinner last night with a guy who I unfriended on Facebook. He's annoying on facebook: he's catty, makes shitty comments, is annoying. In person he is fine though. We had a nice dinner.

[Sera]

to be fair my exact words were something like keep sucking bioware's fat cock or along those lines, but still.

See I'd have laughed at that comment

[Sera]

Huh

I guess my point is friends usually have stuff in common. If you are annoyed by most of their feed you probably don't have a lot in common.

[Sera]

That said I'm just not the type who would be like QALBERT HOW DARE YOU TELL ME TO SUCK BIOWARES FAT COCK UNFRIENDED.

[Chun Liroy]

So, you unfollow someone because you find their posts annoying, then you probably don't have much in common, and aren't really much of "friends."

But, you don't understand why people treat unfollowing like terminating their friendship?

Seems a bit contradictory. Not saying I agree or disagree.
