Friending Policy

xansIt's on my mind since I noticed someone added me, that I've never really explicitly stated anywhere about my friending policy. Nothing extreme, really, since I've not really had many horrendous experiences with drama happening in the world of El Jay.
I will add you:
...if I know you in real life, and we talk/write/interact often.
...if I have some deep sentimental attachment to you even though you rarely update or comment and maybe we don't talk as much as we should (*waves at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ishimish* <3).
...if we have many similar interests in books, movies, fandoms. There needs to be more than just one common interest to tie us together.
...I find your entries witty, interesting, entertaining, unusual, informative, and/or thought-provoking.
...if you have talent at writing, art, icon/banner/wallpaper making and I'm in awe of said talent, and wish to keep an eye out for future creations.
If you add me first:
...please, introduce yourself in a comment, tell me why you added me, and how you found me. Lurking is creepy.
...even if you don't leave an introductory comment, I will look at your profile and browse your entries. If I think I'll enjoy reading your lj, I will probably add you back.
...if you have nothing for a profile and no entries, and don't leave comments explaining why you added me, I'm not going to add you back.
I will de-friend you:
...if you don't update and also don't leave comments which at the very least indicate you're still reading my journal.
...if, even though you do update, I haven't commented on your entries in some time and you haven't commented on my entries. Obviously we don't have enough in common to even communicate anymore.
...if you make incredibly offensive posts, or obscure one liners without any glimpse at the real you.
...if you ever do something to betray my trust, or try to start some huge drama over nothing.
I make very few friendslocked posts so you probably won't miss out on much if I don't add you back or take you off my f-list. I will probably revise this entry at some later point, but this will do for starters.
