I am up to the challenge and was thinking of doing the same thing - that is culling my list to those persons who reply and participate with me.

When I first started the game back in August, I really didn't know about friends at all. My first friend was/is Chantel - she just popped up out of nowhere. I assume now I was one of those random "invitees" and I was fortunate enough that she clicked on me. This too was a middle of the night - hiding under the covers event, so I didn't really read all of the little hints and prompts to learn about what had happened.

When I figured out that friends could help and were opportunities to help I was taken up with the adreline and excitement of attaining goals of adding friends to get the rewards the game gives for having X number of friends. I found this wiki page quite by accident and starting soliciting friends. I have come to realize - in the last couple of days - that there is NO WAY to be properly thankful or helpful to 100s of people. So I have written off the idea of going forward to adding and adding.

I am guessing that I have about 25? people who never respond to either gifts or charges - other than sending the automatic "thank you" box. What advice would you give as to a proper number of friends to be sure I do a good job for them? And what would be criteria for keeping someone? Since I found the user pages and joined this wiki, I've been lucky enough to connect with some really lovely people  (Dances with Goats, Alicia84, Magnificat (Witchcat) and AGirlaDroid). I enjoy our little chats and look forward to hearing from them each day. They make me smile.

Finally, once I figure out whom, how does one, as you put it, "Airlock" a friend?

I look forward to your thoughts.

Enjoy the view from space, we really do have a lovely big blue marble.
