My nephews and a couple nieces have an ungodly amount of "friends," numbering well into the five or six hundreds, on their lists. I think part of that is from playing online games. I can't imagine seriously wanting to keep up with that many people.

Good way to keep your list. Sometimes I add people, then regret it later. I don't have a large group, under 100. I could certainly add more. I could also remove a few without guilt. As long as I can be me, and there are no hurt feelings, I keep the ones I have. When I start to feel there are issues, I reassess the list. I have had a brother drop me for posting Bible quotes. He said it bugged him. I told him to block my feed, then I won't muck up his world. Problem solved.

I regularly purge my friends list. That said, I also don't believe FB is dangerous. I believe that people are, but, you can live right next door to someone who's unhinged, so you take chances everywhere. *shrug*

The title was sarcastic for those who thought I meant FB was literally dangerous, just a heads up.

I've hidden a few people rather than unfriend them because the either posted a lot of stuff (kids mainly) or posted "views" that I wasn't interested in reading.

Aye, that's best way to not hurt their feel. I do the same thing to set the privacy on how they see on my post and my profile page.
