FabSwingers.com forum: Random Friends Requests

By (user no longer on site) OP

Im getting rather fed up with out of blue friends requests,not just from new profiles that ive no interest in,but also established profiles of those who i am.

I may be interested in the same things,but that doesnt make it alright to receive a friends request when they cant be bothered to message first.

As site says its not rude to receive a message and not reply to it,but it is rude to just send random friends adds

So would anyone else like to see a filter where friends requests can only be sent once both profiles have exchanged atleast one message from the other ?

Yes it sounds like a good idea to me. I don't like getting friends requests from people miles away where a meet is never going to happen. Mostly they just want to look at private pictures. XXX

I agree - to me a random Friends request just means that they want to look at my private pics - and that's just plain bad manners.

So I always - Always - Block whoever sends them, and I warn on my Profile that I will do that - but still they try...

Some people would be flattered getting friends request and some people need to get over themselves.

We're flattered when we get nice messages from someone who's bothered to read out profile but I guess you're flattered by complete strangers wanting to see your private pics. Each to his/her own I'd say, what's it got to do with 'getting over ourselves?'

poster saying "people need to get over themselves." Is possibly the sort of profile this thread is based on

As this is something that some people don't mind

and there is a simple solution of bulk delete requests ( and you yourself send to whom you want to be friends with)

I'm not sure it's a good use if time to change this...

Surely there's other things higher on the site change wish list?

Yes,i do send friends adds,but only once i have conversed a few times and its someone i wish to stay in contact with.Not those who send random requests hoping to see so saucy pictures as titillation.
