Journal krow's Journal: Explaining Zoo 15
So someone asks "I have someone marked as a friend but they also show up under freak, what is happening?"
This means that you like them, they hate you, and you are probably a stalker.
Thankfully we never created a Slashdot dating service.

But I get this...
"You have over 200 friends and foes at the moment. This puts you over our limit of 200 relationships that we allow. At this point you may only remove relationships with users. So do you want to remove your relationship with"
What do I need to do to fix it? Thanks in advance and once again for the Zen.

Shaking with anticipation I get this upon click:

"Sorry, this is not an option."
Add or removal not an option. None the less my faith has been restored. I will patiently await a response.
I was wondering about that.... (Score:2)
no wonder you called it "freak" since its a head scratcher to think of anything better to call it.

Anyway, back to Krow in step 1. He is my friend. Then in step 2 he makes me his friend. We have both set the value of our relationship, the relationship is now bi-directional. Now he is my fan.
Step 3 - I change my relationship to foe. He sees that change. This is important, from Krow's perspective I am a Freak. The relationship's two-way nature is what gives rise to the "Freak" label. The "Freak" is basically a way to keep track of users who don't want to hear from you. Now, if you keep after them, then you might be a stalker, but that seems to me to be the only way to relate "Freak" and stalker.

To see firsthand my problem, look at my friends list [slashdot.org] and krow's fans list [slashdot.org] (I'm on your fans list, but you're mysteriously missing from my friends list - along with many other people I'd added as friends..).
I'd really like to get this fixed!!
Also, the new UI stuff on the User Info pages doesn't quite render right in Chimera (the lightweight Gecko browser for OS X). It's odd, because it works fine in Galaeon. Specifically, the text is just a little bit bigger than the tabs.
