I got thoroughly sick of seeing a vast list of people whom I might like to connect with, mainly because I wasn't sure if LI was spamming all those people with connect requests from me. I didn't want to be that spammy person, so I found out how to delete the list, and how to prevent the list regenerating (at least until Microsoft change the rules again, anyway).
What you need to do is to - thanks to LI Help being helpful for once - is to:
- Log in to LI
- Click on the My Network icon on the LinkedIn header bar.
- On the left-hand side of the page, below your number of connections (ie, 1370 Your connections) click the tiny hyperlink, See all.
- In the Connections page, click the tiny link, Manage synced and imported contacts, on the top right of the page.
- On the Manage synced and imported contacts page, click the Imported tab at the top of the page and select all the contacts listed. Select delete.
- Click the Delete selected button near the bottom of the page. We will get a warning message asking if we want to delete all: don't worry, people we are already connected with will not be deleted. Click YES.
- Check on the right-hand side that we have not given permission for LinkedIn to have access to any of our contacts list (see that, once deleted, the page looks like mine above).
