Friend Requests

aceman67 · Jun 10, 2009, 08:53 AM

Ok, it just annoys me that people think that they can just randomly add people to their friends list with out even knowing them.

I regularly reject 4 or 5 a month and it really annoys the hell out me. (mostly for the email notification I get...)

Seriously, If I don't know you, I'm not going to add you to my list, its that simple.

God, can't people read things? There's comments on my profile specifically telling them that I won't accept friend requests!

But... they REAAALLLYYY want a friend!

No but seriously: Do these people go up to every random strangers and ask for their phone number?

You think you got it bad. I have gotten at least twice as much as you, (though I'm sure a few other members get just as much or more than me) and it's just not that. A few ask me out!!! Honestly, you just met me or just pm me randomly and expect me to go out with you?? Then, somtimes, I get these friend request and the person never shows up again. We live in a strange time my friend (wait you're not my friend acey...oh well). At least the summer of noobs hasn't come yet. Not a whole bunch of new people. I think, though I do sometimes don't log in for a few days to a week. Have we had a bunch of noobs lately???

Here's a tip people, go invisible. I have went down to literally zero requests now, except from people I know. Trust me they don't see you it works.

The sad truth is that I don't even know half my friends. People just send me friend requests all the time, and I don't want to hurt their feelings by not adding them. Lately, I have just been denying them though.

I know! I have gotten strangers phone numbers like crazy, like one guy gave me his phone number in a visitor message on my profile, others I have had them pm me asking for my number.

Yeah it sucks especially when AO sends the user a msg telling them they got denied. Zev, I bet you that stranger is Trunks.

The problems of girls on the net.
Here's another tip: Change gender or don't tell. Do it like Hassun!

Or delete those pics of you's, make them private or whatever.
Good looking girl around a bunch of freaky, anime-loving guys = nono.

Of course I'd feel bad going invisble but it could help a few things. I don't know...being invisble after all this time is kind of weird. I've thought about but not sure. It's really scary for us girls, like laps said. XD *shudder* Is any place safe on the net?? O_O
