If people bash me, I don't want to know. They can feel free to do that in private. (I always turn off de-friending notifications too. And I certainly don't want people to feel like they can't leave because I'll get an alert about it!)

I wonder if I link an entry if that'll send an alert to the writer. Because sometimes I want to say something critical about a post but don't really feel like criticizing the writer, so I'll do it somewhere else rather than responding . . . *ponders*

I like the sound of that, as well. It's funny ^_^
Thank you. I try ; )
