How to remove Vkontakte subscribers: effective methods
Changes in the system of friends in the popularsocial network Vkontakte caused a lot of negative feedback from users: now if you rejected the request of a person to add to friends, he remains with you in subscribers. Moreover, strangers can simply subscribe to your updates without adding you as a friend. How to delete subscribers In contact?
When you subscribe to a person, itspublic updates appear in your news feed. Similarly, your public updates appear in the news feed of those who are subscribed to you. Unlike adding to friends, a subscription is not a mutual process: a person does not need your consent to subscribe to your updates.
Many people are annoyed by this state of affairs: not everyone is pleased when their news is signed by strangers or those whom you do not want to cross (the former guy or girl, the new passion of the former guy or girlfriend, colleague, etc.). Yes, and trying to add you as a friend spammers in the list of subscribers somehow not pleasing. Is it possible to somehow remove from the list of subscribers in the VC (in the contact) users you do not like and how to do it?
1. Add subscribers to the black list
This method is the most effective, but radical. Go to the page with your subscribers, point to the victim's avatar and click on the cross in the upper right corner. A confirmation box will appear. If you are sure, click Continue.
When you put a person on the blacklist, hecan no longer send you private messages and applications to friends, and also view your page. At the same time, he, naturally, will disappear from the list of subscribers. The drawback of this method is that each subscriber will have to be added to the list manually, if you have too many of them - the process will be quite laborious.
If you decide to pardon someone from the list,go to the Blacklist tab in the My Settings section and click the Delete link from the list opposite this user. But keep in mind that then the user will again be on your list of subscribers, if he did not have time to unsubscribe himself.
2. Ask subscribers to retire themselves
Effective way how to remove strangerssubscribers in the VC (in contact), not adding them to the blacklist, no. But you can try to use "devious" ways, some of them can help. To begin with, you can ask a person to unsubscribe from you in an amicable way, by sending him a personal message. Or leave a message on your wall to everyone reading your wall with a request to unsubscribe: they will see it in their news feed.
But there are no guarantees that peoplevoluntarily unsubscribe from your updates. The general appeal will not be noticed by all, spammers are unlikely to read your message at all, you may not write to some subscribers yourself, because you do not want to communicate with these people. Finally, if there are many subscribers, it can be a tedious task to write to everyone personally.
3. Limit privacy in the VC
Therefore, the third option is to leavesubscribers, but at the same time as much as possible cut their access to your personal information. In the privacy settings (the menu item My Settings, the Privacy tab), you can make sure that most of your personal information can only be seen by your friends - and who you add to your friends, you already decide for yourself.
The disadvantage of this method is thatYou will not be able to access all the information you need: you will see some of your personal information (for example, your date of birth, city, Skype login, website), your wall posts, photos you posted on your wall, your friends and subscriptions you can hide only 15 of them), video and audio. So completely shut down from non-friends, not putting them on the blacklist, as it was possible before, you will not succeed.
So the only sure way to remove VC subscribers is to put them on the blacklist. But this method is quite radical (people can not communicate with you any more) and laborious.
