How long do you wait til you delete your (friends) people from your list if they haven't been on for a while. I give them 45 days, after that I figure they made up a different account or quit PS3 and are taking up space. I need active friends who are on at least once a week. I'm on everday.

haha-- this is a good question. I would give them 3 months. There is this one guy on my list who hasn't played since 7 months, but i don't want to deleye him because he helped me a lot in Demon's Souls.

Since the friend's list is now sorted by activity rather than alphabetically I haven't really had the need to delete inactive users since they're at the bottom of the list. Actually I've been deleting people off my list that are active but don't talk or play games with me more than inactive ones.

I've got someone on my list who hasn't been on for over a year :P But I usually delete people when someone else wants me to add them, because my list is full.

Usually, 2-3 months. I have one friend though that hasn't been on in over 8 months. I'd delete him but I actually know him; it's awkward.

I don't really have a time limit, but if I haven't played a game with them in a long time they're a lot more likely to get deleted whenever I need to make room for more friends.

Never. I only have two PSN friends and one more invite who I don't know who is so I won't add. I don't add people I don't know, so I don't need to delete.

1 month, unless its a move or your ps3 broke. I get a lot of friend requests and many of them are really active. 1 month is my breaking point so I can make room for others.

I never delete real (italics) friends. That said, if it's a random user I met on Modern Warfare who seems sociable and decent. I'll delete him after a day or two.

I think a Month is enough. I myself need to make a big cleanup of my friend list, some of them have not been connected for 3 to 4 months.

Looks like it varies, but I think I saw more people say a month to make that the average time.

The first step i take is not adding anyone at all unless they're real life friends and family. Those people can stay on my list forever, regardless of activity level.

I only delete people who've never contacted me after sending me a request. People have lives outside of gaming so, I wouldn't delete someone for not playing unless they had a sub level 3 trophy score and it's been 6 months or more.

I only delete people who I don't talk to as pretty much all except for 4 people I know are from the Laid Back Lounge. Time is not a factor as I know someone well and he hasn't been on for 4 months now because he's overseas in Iraq right now.

I'm not running out of room yet, so I haven't really bothered with it. The only friend I ever deleted was on all the time and CONSTANTLY sending me chainmails.

I have a dude that was offline for 25 months now & I still keep him because he was a cool dude & he MAY come back.

Ps: (To those who have me on their PS3 friends list) I haven't been on much & that's due to the fact that I have the "new system" (check the blogs). I will be back on during the Fall season for Naruto, LBP2 & Star Wars: TFU 2, so don't delete me.

What a unique post, good to see this :D

I delete people if they haven't been on for 3 months. Its unfortunate, I've deleted some really nice people but I guess they got an xbox in the end :?

I wait a month or two, depending on whether or not I actually want to delete people. If they're real life friends/family, they stay on my list forever, though.

If I need space I'll delete them but most of the people on my friends list I barely know because we usually don't play the same game. However If I get chain mail or any sort of junk I delete and block the person.

If they are not good friends with me then they don't even belong on my friends list. I keep my friends list at 10 or lower.
