Yanno, there's an LJcomm I think I'm gonna excuse myself from until it starts being consistent.

For a clue, if you recognize the stuff in the icon here....



I wish there were a way to "unwatch" a comm w/o leaving it!

I took most of those comm. off my flist, you go to manage> friends> then click on "Manage Friends" then uncheck the comms, you still have posting access but you won't see posts on your f-page.

Unless one of the mods decides to do spring cleaning and unfriend those who aren't "friends of" and "watching" the community. Unlikely, I know... but possible.

LOL oh, how do you mean? Until rules are enforced for everyone? Until manners matter? Until...

Wait, there is a way to unwatch. Let me figure it out and I'll be right back.

Edit: moonminx is totally right on one way, but I voiced my personal paranoia at that method. Here's the FAQ advice http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=179&q=remove

are we talking about a small comm? a lot of people take high volume comms. off their flist. Is this a comm where it would be noticable if someone left?

[luckystar37.livejournal.com]

Oh I don't know, really. So I'm just sorta talking for everything (I'm assuming you are responding to my comment to you and not my comment here that you are actually replying to, right? If not, I don't know what you mean)

[requiella]

I was responding to both your comments really.

It's normal for a person to take a comm off their flist so these comments confused me-

which is why I thought after seeing those comments that it was a small comm where the mod can see who took the comm of their flist. (I'm confusing myself, I think;))

[luckystar37.livejournal.com]

Ah, ok - gotcha.

Anyone can see who is watching versus who is friended versus who is both. A mod can easily compare though, and unfriend as easily as we can unfriend people from our journals. the difference is with our journals, if the posts are flocked, the unfriended people won't be able to see them. I rarely flock posts in communities.

So yeah, it is possible for a mid to "clean up" the flist of the community, no matter what the size.

As far as what is friended, watching, joined, and all of the above - I'm a little confused myself on that hence the linking to the FAQ

No, it's pretty darn big. I figured it out, though :)

You can remove a community from your friends list and still be a member.

Uhoh! I pretty much stopped reading it over the past few months. I kinda go and skip through posts once a week if I remember. I read a filtered version of my friends page with no communities so I miss a lot (I have filters for friends, for all communities and for communities broken down into categories).
