Drastic measures are called for! I'm going to MUTE all people who resteem.

How do you keep track of it? Do you routinely follow people who follow you, as I do? When I periodically go through my list of followers, I click "follow" on every user listed other than the muted users. I'm using mute to maintain a "stop list". How else can it be done?

I ONLY follow people who write stuff that I find interesting.
If they quit interesting me I quit following them.
MonkeySphere and like that....I have a VERY short list of people that I follow.
about half are in my (Steemit) monkeysphere..the others write technical information
for example I follow steemstem because the account covers Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathmatics (not that I understand all of it) but sometimes it's interesting..
I follow BlockTrades which is an exchange....for updates. That's how I found out about renting delegation and buying accounts.
I follow jrcornel, dragosroua (the witness who I've delegated my witness vote to), penguinpablo, kingscrown and some others because they are experts on something about Steem, the BlockChain or CryptoTrading. I rarely comment.

Most of the others that I follow write about stuff I find entertaining or interesting.

Everyone is on probation. Sometimes I UNfollow them for a while, the change my mind and ReFollow.

Stale Account Info Due to Caching Error. I was very much relieved.

I'm going to look into whether I can write a bot to keep track of things so that I can just unfollow people rather than mute them. You and I have different objectives for being here. I am only here to form relationships with people. I'm trying to figure out how to make the platform work for that.

I'm here for that too.
the only bots I dislike are those that vote, comment or flag.
other than that they're ok.
lemme know how it turns out.

I just gave up after spending ten minutes with the API doc. It's crap. I can see that I could probably do what I want by using my servers and the JSON interfaces. But JSON is shit; I've been there and done that. It would take two months of effort to do it, almost entirely because JSON is such shit.

I have no idea what you just said.
something about shit i think.
may i recommend a bidet?

Won't help. It's already all over me. Programmers used to know how to write documentation.

ya think?
when?
for the Eniac ?

Do you routinely follow people who follow you, as I do
nope.
