Friend requests without chatting first

I can believe we are here again, but let's try anyway.

Winks, sure, if you are a couple send one and if we wink back then we can open a chat or just start chatting. If we get a spark, send a friend request.

Single men, don't send a wink at all, just message, if we spark again send a friend request.

But.

Don't just send an unsolicited friend request. We won't just delete it, we will block as well.

Am I just being grumpy because of a long work week and I'm tired? Is this an unreasonable expectation?

I would delete, maybe block depending on the vibes I get off the profile in question

I do consider it very impolite to get a friends request without prior chats... chances are the person requesting just wants to perv on more pics and nowt else... happens a lot here.

I get that, but we don't friend-wall any of our pics or videos, if people want to rub one out go right ahead. The best stuff is in real life.

I can filter the mailbox just for friend messages and their updates get pushed to the top, so I understand the value. I just don't get how random_hornyfuck37564 thinks I'm going to accept it.

I actually wish being a friend didn’t give you any extra privileges on this site. I have a few very good friends on my list, I never look at their friends only pictures, but I like having instant access to their profiles so I can message them easily.

I’d rather have a rough idea of what someone looks like (ie normal pics) to initiate a dialogue and then see their naughty bits in person. If we decide between us to swap rudie pictures, that’s up to us.

I bet that would stop 90% of requests overnight.

Perplexed by no-chat friend requests from attractive established couples who are verified by other well established fabbers. They must surely know that many people see this behaviour as a negative. It’s as if their strategy is to seek out the undiscriminating. Very odd.

It really pisses me off when I see unsolicited friend requests or if someone asks me early on in a conversation.

It’s definitely a disrespectful and bad mannered practice, all because they want to be nosey over friends only pics.

I normally just ignore the requests even if some people plead like desperados. Some I block as I have no time for fakes who just want to ogle my pics.

I used to get a lot of random friends requests from women who were competing on hotpics.

I'd never spoken to any of them before and never even seen a few of them so I didn't accept any of them.

I didn't delete them as that then prevents them from sending another.

I still get the odd one now and again and I treat those the same way.

But we’re not talking about real life or face to face. Why can’t you (or some others) separate the two?

Look at it this way, the website has given people tools - the Wink button, and a friend request button, and the direct messages.

So when the friend request button is available for somebody to use, they are only using the tool that has been given to them. So blame the game, not the player

And if you personally think that somebody sending you a friend request is impolite or bad manners, I’d say, you need to reassess, what bad manners actually are. And I stand by that, because I think there’s a push from some profiles that just would prefer no interaction on here at all apart from people they fancy. And unfortunately I can’t be guaranteed for anybody.

I hate them. And in 15 years have found them to be indicative of them being prepared to not invest effort into me, nor true interest in wanting to know me or my needs. I should block them all, after my experiments from sending a return wink and the resolute laziness, at best, that the single men have shown

I think most of them are trying to get private wank fodder. It reduces when I delete my photos for friends.

Typical answer of the world today.

The tool is provided for people to use the right way however as always some people will abuse it.

And as for behaving differently on here, well that is because behind a screen we don't face any consequences for our actions.

Obviously some people have different ideas of what respect means.

Because people go for the approach if you don't try you never know.... there's really no point working yourself up over it. Most unsolicited friend invites I receive I just delete but occasionally my interest might be piqued... and besides it's easy enough to unfriended people later. .

But what I do is defend those people that send friend requests, hoping for the best, those that I have no other intentions and trying to get to know somebody. But what they normally find somebody coming on the forum, telling him how disrespectful they been. Howe welcoming Does that look for those new people that I’ve joined Fab?

As I said, don’t blame the player playing the game. There are so many features on this website that are broken because I’ve been there from day one that once worked, but they don’t work now, because of the sheer amount of people that are now on here, compared to the small amount that once was.

You think sending a friend request is bad behaviour? … interesting.

Do you think it is good behaviour to walk up to a stranger and ask them to be your friend??

But we’re not talking about real life or face to face. Why can’t you (or some others) separate the two?

Look at it this way, the website has given people tools - the Wink button, and a friend request button, and the direct messages.

So when the friend request button is available for somebody to use, they are only using the tool that has been given to them. So blame the game, not the player

And if you personally think that somebody sending you a friend request is impolite or bad manners, I’d say, you need to reassess, what bad manners actually are. And I stand by that, because I think there’s a push from some profiles that just would prefer no interaction on here at all apart from people they fancy. And unfortunately I can’t be guaranteed for anybody.

Typical answer of the world today.

The tool is provided for people to use the right way however as always some people will abuse it.

And as for behaving differently on here, well that is because behind a screen we don't face any consequences for our actions.

Obviously some people have different ideas of what respect means.

And I bet you still get friends requests as they don’t either read your profile or they are chancers.

I think there are a few reasons folk send them.

1. They wanna see your pictures

2. The longer the list if "friends" the more popular they might seem

3. They have face pictures in their gallery you can check out to see if interested

4.Other reasons they have for sending

Not really sure the use of them to be honest except to perv at their 'friends only' pics and vids. Most of my X rated stuff is in private with only a few cheeky action shots in 'friends'.

The problem I had was that of one of the 'friends' posts a fuck ton of pictures or videos then it floods your Status Updates.

Hotlist is fairly small too for that reason.

Generally would only add a friend after a meet but have made exceptions. The list gets 'refined' occasionally.

They have to behave differently, that’s a fact.

In a bar, in real life I can get to talk to you face to face. Here I can’t. There’s nothing the same about how to react.

Concidering we have profile photos of our naked bodies showing, how can you even compare it to being the same of how we would act act in real life? You are right. Strange logic.

All I’m trying to point out is when someone says it’s bad Manners to wink or send a friend request, (which literally leaves things in your hands to accept or not) I think it’s crazy. There are much more things to be bugged about in here.

No. I don’t whatask ‘will you be my friend’. Are use clear communication as an indication to tell him that I would like to get to know them

Put on just generalising.

And I’m not flogging anything, I’m literally telling you, I personally can understand why somebody may use a tool that has been given by a website.

I’m completely happy that I’m the only one with this opinion, because it serves me well on here to act the way that I act and treat people with respect to the way that I treat people with respect. But if you try to make out that I support rude and disrespectful behaviour, because I tell you somebody might be only trying to say hello and get your attention by sending a friend request, then go ahead try and put me in a ‘certain demographic’.

I've had winks, friend requests and weird first messages.

I tend not to piss my knickers about it.

I either wink back if they're hot, laugh at the messages and maybe reply and sometimes accept the friend request at 0200hrs when they are offline, look at their pics, then unfriend.

"I will literally allow anyone to be my friend. Providing they have a verification.

Are they? Really?

I also have a couples profile here and we both use it exactly the same way and talk to people the same way we do on our single profiles.

My opinion in 8 years here is that many couples aren't picky at all and are more than happy to message any fresh meat or new cock and expect gratitude in return.

The vast majority of unsolicited friend requests I've received over the years have been from couples.

I would guess at this stage I've had 100 in 8 years and 70-80 of those have been from couples I've never spoken to or even looked at their profiles.

I have had follow up messages with lists of demands telling me what I need to do to get on their to-do lists and many calling me a waster and an idiot for not accepting their friends requests.

Therefore I don't believe for a second that all couples are more picky.

I'm extremely picky which is why I've never accepted an unsolicited friend request.

"Perplexed by no-chat friend requests from attractive established couples who are verified by other well established fabbers. They must surely know that many people see this behaviour as a negative. It’s as if their strategy is to seek out the undiscriminating. Very odd. "

We’re the ones guilty of stirring this hornets nest after 36 weeks of peace . Just to repeat… if you are a legit couple then sending requests without even saying hi seems like a pretty counterproductive strategy to us if you do in fact want to connect with other legit couples. Now carry on…

Single men, don't send a wink at all, just message, if we spark again send a friend request.

Don't just send an unsolicited friend request. We won't just delete it, we will block as well.

Enjoy."

I don't think it is bad manners, or disrespectful, or anything like that. I think it's just a way of shooting their shot. After all, it isn't like sending a friend request gives them access to anything, you have to accept the request for that.

I don't understand why people get so het up about it. Just don't look, or have a look and ignore or delete, or accept and have a look when the other person is offline and then remove them as a friend.

Whatever you choose to do is no more or less disrespectful than the unsolicited friend request in the first place.
