When I first joined I did approach people that I found nice and interesting. Nowadays I rarely make friends requests because I receive quite a few every day which is great. I used to automatically accept everyone although now because of spammers and trolls I do check each request more carefully. In have one pending at the moment from a person who has hardly any activity and seems to have placed her link everywhere, which puts me off accepting.

I have been on both sides of making friends Bala. Previously, when I had joined in, I used send requests and they used to accept. Hardly would I get any request! But now, I accept the requests which others send me. I just love to go to my friends tab. sometimes I take a little long, I know and a few has serious complaints against me but it happens that way now. Now, i send requests only when i come across a very interesting post that i could relate to instantly.

To me there is not much distinction.I invite friends whose responses make me do that and I approve of friends whose discussions interest me and where I feel that I COULD participate in some ,started by them.I sense a wavelength with some as far as attitudes and intersts go.With some people, I also exchange mails;this evolves over a period of time.

Hello balasri! I am more on approving friend requests rather than requesting. It's been a long time since I sent a friend request to anyone because I found out that until now I still have some pending friend requests which means that person I added to deny me or just ignore my requests.

generally i let other people request me and then after checking them out I accept
very rarely will i request someone's friendship
just because I am picky like that LOL
speaking of friends it occured to me that you and I are not friends
(I couldnt find you after I had to start this new account)
so what do you say wanna be friends again?

I have done both but most of the time I get friendship requests. I put them in pending and check out the profile page and discussions they have started
or replied to. If I find a common attitude or like what the person discusses I approve them as friends. I have been here a long time now and my friends' list is very long. On occasion I have requested friendship from another mylot member.

I used to request friednships when I first joined myLot, either people who's discussions appealed to me or those who's responses to my own discussions pleased me. Now that I have less internet time, I don't request friendships often. I always respond to those who request them of me however.

I do not mind requesting for friendship, but since I do not get to visit the site often, I normally have friend requests when I log in. I approve most of the requests, except for those with zero or only one post.
It is always fun to meet new friends...either way.
Have a great day.

making friendship is not bad but some people used mylot to scam you.. i been scammed
before by a fellow mylot user who asked to join with other paid sites in exchange of
money when ever i reached into a certain amount but when i reached the amount she was
gone to mylot and mylot banned her for this..
so better choose who will you going to approve like mine currently i have to pending
friend request but i did not approved it since they only got to few posts and the
tendency of this is that they just only want to scam you..
by sending you a private message..

I get friend requests everyday, not for talking about stuff, in order to send me private messages about joining sites. So, your not the only one.

I got quite a few friends out here in last 4 months and well i would anyone who would respond to any of my discussions so a) i dont have to go looking out for the active members here and b) i would try to response to their atleast one discussion just my way of thanking them for responding to mine.
so i would say i am a requester.

It depends, I make more 'friends' by accepting people, though these people are on my list but hardly visit my topics (if at all) and never pm me or talk to me in any other fashion. You would think they would contact you if they want to add you, or at least reply every once in a while to a discussion? Unfortunatly 9 out of 10 cases this doesn't work that way in my current experience.
If I add people myself I add them because I have seen there reponses or new topics and I like their style, their humor, their wit, their intelligence or we share the same interests or hobbies. I have experienced that these people become better mylot friends and who I can also call Mylot friends. There other people are on my list but pretty much deleted after a couple of weeks or months because they are either no longer on mylot or never, ever showing their faces.

By approving friendships, I only asked for two people out of all the people here. Mostly because I would feel badly if I was turned down. Also wasn't sure what criteria people were using to accept/reject.

Most of the time I accept requests that are sent to me.
Rarely do I request others.
I have such a long friend list that I think others may think I 'collect' friends therefore they would not accept. Also I am a wee bit shy of requesting users with high numbers. I may not be new here but I still 'feel' new in some circumstances.
How do you go about it?

Till now I have not requested anyone to be my friend...Though I have got many in my friend list but it all because of the approval of a friend requests......I can not explain exactly why I am not requesting someone to become my friend...may be because of the fact that I am not old enough here and with time I may started to initiate the process of making friends.........

Hmm well seeing as I've only just started geting in to this site (which I thiink is great btw hehe) I think the best way of actully getting to talk to people a bit more is by commenting on their posts. It may lead to a conversation, and then you may request friendship and then talk as much you like through private message hehe .
I started to talk someone because I sent them a private message just asking them a simple question of "how much have you made so far on mylot?" xD
I want to get a bit of a estimate of how many posts you got to do till you reach minimum payout hehe (:
Ooo does any one know the answer to that? xD
