You can defriend them...!"And then they can request again! Unsolicited friend requests are left sitting there on my profile. That way they cannot request again. I used to delete them but used to get them every single week from the same guys - one guy did it daily! My friends list is for people I have met or about to meet. And if they are not going to meet again they don't stay on the list either. | |||

"Sigh......... Tumble........ " Even after just two weeks on-site I'd have thought you'd have figured out that the only people to send/accept unsolicited friends requests tend to be single guys. So I'd guess the only people to think this 'experiment' was a good idea would be.......yep......single guys! And even they don't appear to be jumping up and down to join in!  | |||

No way would I accept anyone and everyone as a friend. My friends list is for people I've met or intend to meet. | |||

Your opening post suggested that people randomly accept requests from all and sundry! Never likely to get a positive response. The other thread simply suggested commenting on the thread to show you'd be open to the idea of a friend request - still giving the option to choose who you accepted.

An entirely different proposal and in no way just 'semantics' "What is the difference between suggested and simply suggested (other than your pre disposition)? I see no complexity in either to differentiate. The only complexity comes with personal boundaries. They are individual. It was not intended as a popularity contest. I am not a needy person who requires the confirmation that my _iews are those of the majority. Those kind of people can apply for the 'x-factor' or similar! It was an idea that 'some' people may wish to engage with. You are welcome and entitled to have an opinion but you can't speak for anyone else. Opinions of others matter not a jot to me. I don't need to defend my right to make a suggestion or open a topic just as i don't seek out 'confirmation' from others. Suggestions are just that, whether they are simple or not. If nobody ever suggested things that were outside of peoples comfort zones or sphere of influence then we would still be without fire, never mind wheels, sanitation and sliced bread. I'm not expecting to change anybody's mind, world or even day. A little fun amd mischief for myself does no harm though | |||

It was a rubbish idea and anyone who knows anything about the fora could have predicted it would garner no intetest. The people who are happy to show all their photos to anyone and everyone make them all public. Those with friends only photos do so because they want to decide who sees them. It stands to reason nobody would agree to add anyone and everyone who asks. It didn't work, no big deal, move on. | |||

Well now i've crawled into the corner and am in the process of having a nervous breakdown...... no, really i am. I might have to visit occy health tomorrow my life is ruined, i'm an emotional wreck. When will it get better.
Woe is me
There is light at the end of the tunnel. As soon as you stop bumping this utter failure back to the top, we'll all get distracted by some other shiny thing and it will sink and be forgotten.
Probably.
We're not bothered if you're bothered, well most of us anyway. Personally I'm only commenting because it's here and your naive insistance that it wasn't a bad idea from the very beginning is funny.
Crikey, don't start offering incentives. I keep posting for my own amusement in that other keyboard warriors purport to know my motives, criteria or reasoning.
One mans success (a discussion sharing opinion) is anothers woman's failure (an attempt to create a populist movement).
Actually, as it happens things can be neither of those things too.
"One man's success? Or lack thereof
Admit it, you are still posting because your feelings are a bit dented and your efforts to persuade us this was all intentional, and for your amusement, are to try and make yourself feel better about the entire fiasco.
It's more transparent than perhaps you realise. Please continue to bluster if it helps though. | |||

" Exactly and peeps voted with their mice. Just one of those things. We've all had great ideas for topics which haven't done as well as expected. I thought mine on 80's comedies had more legs to it.
How do you know how people voted? 7/8 of 16000 people commented. Like most posts the majority didn't or haven't read it so have no opinion yet and prbably never will.
Easy - the other ran to 3-4 pages and took off. This didn't.
Maybe you are right.......And yet i have more 'friends'
I hope they feel your friends only pictures were worth it.
I wonder if in a few months time you'll have met any of those "friends"."Why does it matter? Where is the need for pre-judgment and quasi personal insults? again? At least we know you won't meet me. Better go an get my agree with experienced forumistas lesson to help that 'naivety' of mine!!! | |||

" One has rules, one doesn't so is open to interpretation. Doesn't make one right or wrong. What is agreeable to some is not so for others! Exactly and peeps voted with their mice. Just one of those things. We've all had great ideas for topics which haven't done as well as expected. I thought mine on 80's comedies had more legs to it.
How do you know how people voted? 7/8 of 16000 people commented. Like most posts the majority didn't or haven't read it so have no opinion yet and prbably never will. Loke i said, I don't start threads to see how many replies i get. Forums are like a notepad without risks. You have some great ideas that work for you only, some that work for some, a few or lots. Then one that might generate loads of discussion and have little or no outcome.
In reality, who cares?
100% of people who expressed an opinion said no fecking chance. The rest didn't see this or weren't sufficiently interested to comment.
Therefore only the comments received actually mean anything, (since neither those who don't see this or are completely disinterested wouldn't involve themselves anyway).
So, to all intents and purposes, 100% said no.
I don't know why you are making such a fuss tbh. It rather seems like hurt feelings. Chalk it up to experience.
Are we still commenting on this. I audibly laughed out loud when i read hurt feelings!!
Everything is an experience and i put everything down to it. That is why i am personally, professionally and emotionally resilient.
Sweat tbe big stuff and fab forums do not fall into that category. This is just light hearted relief....
Sure it is...

In fact if i don't feel redeemed who knows what i'll do??? Is that better for your sense of omnipotence and broadband psycho analysis? Great, you're welcome. I'm actually just sat watching the football as a utd fan watchimg city win easily (again!!). Now that is depressing. The above statement is in no way a diversionary tactic, so please continue to submit your opinions. In fact... happy to buy anyone in the north west a coffee to further discuss. I'll even pay. | |||
