30k connections and 100 people waiting - what do I do next?
100 invitations - now what do I do?
========================
Hi Customer Support.
I have 100 outstanding invitations from friends and colleagues.
I have tried to accept them without success. I think this is a fault and that you will be keen to rectify it ASAP.
Cheers John

Inappropriate?Hi John,
LinkedIn currently has a 30,000 limit on the number of active connections you can have. If you have additional connection requests that you'd like to accept, I'd recommend looking through your existing connections and removing those that are no longer active or relevant.
The "Remove Connections" action is available on the Connections page, listed under "Contacts" in the navigation.
Take care,
Adam
I’m happy to help.

Inappropriate?As you would know, if you had 30k connections and were on the user side of the fence, but as you probably don't know: The disconnect tool is a pain - it takes ages to load and is slow and cumbersome to use - no good for getting rid of 100's of dormant connections.
It shouldn't be my responsibility to identify dormant connections - how can I - that is a job for LinkedIn. If an account hasn't been accessed for a year, shouldn't you kill it? Or would that deplete your numbers and the success of people searching for connections - i.e. seeing profiles which unbeknown to them are in fact dormant?
Please, simply kill dormant accounts - or even mark them as dormant and give people connected to them the information so they can cut them off - when a dormant account becomes isolated - i.e. only connected with other dormant accounts or no accounts, delete it at your end.
And, get rid of the stupid limit. You are letting people waste their invitations inviting people who can't connect to them - now that's great customer service. Inevitably, big networkers like me are going to have lots of friends who want to connect, however, it is them - the little guys - that you're penalising with this stupidity.
Cheers John
I’m wondering when you'll extract your heads!
