deleted over 200 icq contacts - GoFuckYourself.com

Vendzilla · 04-08-2006, 07:37 AM

Was looking for someone that I hadn't chated with for a while and noticed that a crap load of contacts on my icq I didn't remember who the fuck they were! So I started deleteing, kept count, I deleted 210 contacts, this is probably the second time I've done this, how many contacts are on yours right now that you don't know who they are?

DaddyHalbucks · 04-08-2006, 02:25 PM

Yea, I had to do the same.

Warden · 04-08-2006, 02:25 PM

Good idea. I should do the same

Damian_Maxcash · 04-08-2006, 04:28 PM

Is there an ez way of doing it?

and can you back up the old list so that if you make a mistake you can go back and retrieve someone?

I even have dead people in my list - and a few that should be.

madawgz · 04-08-2006, 04:35 PM

i have about 1000 webmasters on my icq list lol

Furious_Male · 04-08-2006, 04:44 PM

Yes my ICQ list is due for a culling.

Zuzana Designs · 04-08-2006, 04:59 PM

what vertion are you using as I have to delete someone every time I add a new client ??

KMR Stitch · 04-08-2006, 05:08 PM

sicone · 04-08-2006, 05:09 PM

i dont have that many contacts on mine, but I'd say a 3rd of them I never see online... might as well drop them

you have way more than icq allows? WOW

newbie

Jace · 04-08-2006, 05:32 PM

Since for some reason icq likes to keep contacts on their server for me, I can't delete them....so I have a folder on my trillian called "done" and when I see someone that I don't know who it is or haven't chatted with in a long fucking time, I just move them to "done"

I'm thinking about using Trillian again - I just wish they would add Skype.

minusonebit · 04-08-2006, 08:04 PM

I never let my lists get loaded. If someone never comes online, off they go.

Spunky · 04-08-2006, 08:06 PM

I always have to do that every few months

Your still on the list!!

Trixxxia · 04-09-2006, 03:04 PM

I have about 1k on trillian too - problem is, about 30% are orphaned and trillian doesn't look like they 'figured' out what the problem is.

I do mass cleanings often though - but keep history folders backed up 'just in case' I ever need to refer to the history after I've removed them.

Peaches · 04-09-2006, 03:08 PM

When I left WEG I deleted everyone but friends. I only have 1 or 2 now

Vendzilla · 04-09-2006, 08:29 PM

Peaches, you always have a friend with me!!

Sosa · 04-09-2006, 08:43 PM

I've been doing the same about once a month.

Juicy D. Links · 04-09-2006, 08:44 PM

i have so many people i need a cleanup
