would you delete a friend on ciao if he/she doesn't rate your reviews?

I think this is similar to all the stealth settings and YM or MSN list. Some people will put you inside the invisible list or even remove you from their friend list if you don't do certain things which he/she wanted you to do. To me, that's plain childish. I'll only remove the person if I've forgotten who is that person (and there's no message or email from that person for a long time). In CIAO, I have about 100 friends, and it's very hard for me to just go through everyone in a single day and rate all the reviews. I think when he/she has so many friends, they will understand that it is just impossible. :)

Oh and I was just wondering why some would remove me from their list, ha! as if I care! and I really don't like it that people asked you to be in their circle of trust, I mean come on! how can you say that you trust his or her opinion when you have not even had a glimpse on his reviews right? well there are exception though, when a user comes from here and I have been interacting with him or her here in mylot, well I would probably adding them to my circle of trust (which reminds me I have to add you and other friends here.. need to pause mylot!) as for me, I really don't mind that friends don't rate me, but I am glad that some would really take some time off rating my reviews. and one more thing how can you rate some reviews when you are not actually interested on the things they review?

I just signed up with ciao today. I feel kinda disappointed that its basically a popularity contest so to speak. I dont have any friends on there since i just now joined so I guess i'm not gonna make much lol. Oh well, all I can do is try.

i know ciao is an online community,and the purpose is to review and rate review right?for me its give and take..i mean, why you added a friend or why did they add you as friend, is it for a friend count only? ..but still depends.but for me the essence of friendship at ciao is sharing reviews with friends, and caio community.

I feel that rating is mutual in review sites and it is understood that you build up your crowd and then rate each other.So, if a person never rates you, naturally he is not a friend.A friend on such a site would be rating you whenever he can and add some comments etc while you do the same,so, if you happen to be online and rate some other reviews and dont rate your friends reviews, naturally he/she will feel that there is no point in furthering the friendship.After all at the end of the day, the members are trying to earn more points and money..

In my opinion , he should not delete you just because you failed to rate any of his reviews. We should make friends on line to share interest?discussions?reviews,learn knowledge, enjoy happiness, etc. Please do not force other's to response your reviews ummediately. we should understand each other, not only for the benefits. Friendship is more precious than earning, money is not the whole thing in our life. By the way would like to offer me referral link of ciao , I have heard this web a lot, but do not know how to deal with it .Could you please help me and allow me join you? Thanks!

I would never do that. I don't see any reason why would I delete a friend just because he/she never rated any of my reviews. Actually, I am not even tracking who rated me and who did not. But the reverse happened to me actually. I was rating some reviews of this lady (she already got a lot of friends in Ciao) and the next day he deleted me from her friends' list. I don't know why... But the bottom line is I don't care really.

Dont worry i had already this sort of experience ,some are there if you will not rate them very helpful they will remove ur friendship,they should understand their writing quality ,there are many min minded people active ,they always expect good things for them instantly.

If they aren't doing what they need to be doing then I would delete them, yes. You would have to give him a certain amount of time though. Only fare.

Hi friend,I recently joined ciao but I feel its not fair to delete because you didn't rate a friends review.I just have time to make reviews and when I find time I rate others reviews.So we cant be rating everyday to others reviews.I dont do that or even feel when my friends do not rate me.thanks for sharing.happy mylotting.

That is kind of mean. No, I wouldn't do that. I think that you are the one friend I have in Ciao right now. Is that right? I haven't rated any of your reviews yet. :( I will soon though. How do you choose good friends in Ciao?

no.. not all.. even in mylot, i strictly warned my friends not to give simply the "Best Response" for me. also not rate positive for me. i always need the originality. so if we are rejected or disallowed, only then we can able to find our own faults. i had not compelled anyone for my victory or benefits!

Well it only means that he/she`s not for real. He/she`s not a real friend at all. A friend won`t do such thing. But for the benefit of the doubt, why not ask him/her what had happened... maybe it was just accidentally deleted. Try also to ask yourself if you have done wrong, or something might had happened between the two of you. Or is the issue really about you not rating his/her reviews... I, myself, is a true friend... and being a friend, as much as possible I don`t want to ruin the friendship. So if I could still tolerate things then I will. If I were on your shoe, what I will do is definitely talk to her politely and ask her what really had happened. It`s not about the pride, but it`s the friendship. You have to eat your pride for friends, afterall friendship does a lot of miracle. But if ever things won`t be the same as it was before, then be it. Atleast you`ve proven you`re a true friend... it`s his/her loss anyway, and not yours for sure.
