It is to the management's benefit to keep all folks who ever were part of this board listed. The more users they can show (yes even those who quit, were banned, died, and never ever use their account) the more they can ask for advertising rights.
@Strictmichael75 Actually, these are people who are following me, whom I don't follow back...THAT list is already "unfriended", since I'm not following them, right?
@SomeMichGuy it’s like you just discovered the internet. I don’t care about my list, I don’t even know how many people are on it or who they are because it does not impact on anything I do.
I was just pointing out how ridiculous your post is complaining about having accounts that no longer exist on a followers list when them being there does NOTHING!! 🤣 but sure, you keep complaining about non existent problems.
Tag @Nuno and maybe he can explain it in a way that you understand. Deleted accounts have zero impact on a followers list!
@BabyLonia Not sure that would change the fact that they followed you, but perhaps; considering the long-lived nature of these lists, it would be odd if those maneuvers could change the other user's decision to follow you....
@BabyLonia Answer...yes, one CAN remove them (adding to follower blocks), then UNblock them...and they do NOT come back.
By getting rid of all the SW-User Xs and banned users at least one year old, the list of "followers of me whom I don't follow back" went from >3 pp (but under 4) to under 2 pp, and the entries aren't riddled with that nonsense.
