i have some that i can say "yeah these are my real friends" and then some that i end up saying "you say the same things in every one of my posts"
usually the former actually starts discussion, the latter will just contribute a lol or an emote or stock reaction that they do in everyone else's plurk too
sorry buddy I'm here to play not be your bff and get all invested in your rl goings on
it's not that I don't care but it's like there are levels of friendship, y'know? and gamemate falls somewhere between coworker and relative I only see at the christmas party
Nice try but the person I'm actually thinking of for the latter isn't even in any games with me. They're really sweet and haven't done anything bad so removing them would be petty, but there are times when I just think to myself "ten bucks says x will come in with that one emote"
also I wasn't even thinking about RL stuff I was actually just thinking of dumbass memes and plotting and canon/fandom discussion and stuff. Friends on the level of shared interests, not spilling my life history. my criticism wasn't really against people who don't respond it's against the habit of coming in and saying the same shit every damn time. I realize now that's probably not what OP was complaining about
