I'm getting really tired of my Friends page being seriously screwed up by badly-formatted entries people make. Today I'm guessing it's quiz results. An entry I can't see makes everything below itself almost completely unreadable.
Friends filters work, but to use them I have to find out who the problem child is. This is particularly difficult to narrow down when multiple people have the same problem; searching the solution space becomes slow! The slowness is aggravated by LJ's "optimization" on Friends page loading, such that I have to hit "reload" to get actual results from each experiment. (I wasted a lot of time getting nonsensical and conflicting results before I learned this.)
Today two or three iterations with existing friends groups showed me a subgroup of ten people I could remove just to get a viewable page. I re-added them one by one, a process taking about fifteen minutes with all the clicking around and reloading, and came up with two people filtered out.
*sigh* And I wonder why LJ takes up so much of my time.
