Ugh, for that we have to descend into the awful "what exactly does 'friend' mean on LJ" discussion, and, well, i'm afraid we've run out of time, but tune in next week, when i'll be away from my computer.

Heh. I just figure, I have more than 500 people who've subscribed to read me (and, given that any link I post gets a minimum of 800 hits referred from my post, I suspect I've got more readers who haven't subscribed), and I've got more than 500 accounts that I've subscribed to read in turn. But I don't see why this is inherently disqualifying.

More often than not, i get the impression that accounts with that many "friends" are just collectors and not actually involved in socializing. This is not a bad thing per se, but for someone running to represent the userbase, it makes me less inclined to support them.

Works for me.
