Do you ever let your myLot (pending) friends accumulate?

..Until you're totally overloaded with friend requests - so many that you're discouraged to even click on that "friends" tab to start accepting and denying friends?
I've just recently made this bad habit - and somehow I now have 45 friends in pending. I don't know how it got to be so much! And I promise you guys that I WILL get around to accepting you..Sooner or later. It just seems like such a hassle to go through each and every one, click "accept", and wait for the page to reload (and do it 45 more times).
Do you ever feel un-motivated to accept your friends? Or do you do it right when they request you as a friend, so you won't have them pile up like me?
What are some of your habits & pet peeves when it comes to adding friends on myLot?
Thanks in advance for all of your answers!

Just a few seconds ago i accepted a new friend request. I am new to myLot and i really came here to meet new friends so i am just happy that i received requests. I don't know if i'll get to the point of letting the requests accumulate. I for one am glad that those i requested accepted me too.

Oh, perhaps they'd care to at least spend a few moments reading at my posts and have an idea of what discussions i join and what kinds of topics interest me most? I just hope my profile attracts those whom i can connect to and not the other way around. Thank you maezee! Do you think we could be friends, too? ^_^

Good for you to have plenty of friends coming along ! I would suggest that you would approve them at least one or two in a day (it takes 45 days less to approve all of that ?lol) I usually approve friends request gradually I mean if someone would request me to become their friends then I would approve or reject that very moment and I don't necessarily accumulate them until such time that you feel bored when you approved one.

I don't like my friends accumulating in myLot. Most times I give accept to the pending friends. I think it is always great to add the friends and to make new friends with myLot. I most times add friends whom I like and give accept to all the friends who add me.

I find that if I post in the earn or make money interests, I get a lot of friend requests. It's usually newbies wanting to share referral links. I often reject them. I just recently started being really picky about the friends I decide to add. It just gets to be too much if you add everyone!

I'm new on myLot and haven't gotten any friend requests yet, so I don't know! But I would probably just accept them as I get them, to make it easier for me in the long run. I mean how long does it take to accept one or two friends? It's better than procrastinating & waiting until they all build up.

I don't let my pending friend requests to accumulate. I try to approve the friend requests that I receive as much as possible as I get online. I also like adding friends in my network, especially if they are from my home country, Philippines. Adding friends is good for us as we can get more chances of answering discussions daily. I like to add old and active members of myLot as it means that they are online here daily like me. Happy myLotting!

not really. any time that i get a friend request i check it and add them to my list of friends. i dont see the point in keeping them waiting. its not like other site where the person has the intention of trying to get with me. here its more about getting people to respond to their discussion more then anything else. every one that has request to be friends with me gets add. i like making new friends and getting other peoples opinion on different things that i have questions on.

Hi maezee, this is a simple formula that men like to have women friends. Just have a look at their profile and select who is genuine and who is fake. Discard the seemingly fake.
In my case I never let it pending up. as I see two or three just clock the tav, go to the profile and coming back approve his/her.

you are so lucky that everyone wants to be your friend. since you too look real pretty, everyone would certainly be proud being your friend. you are so blessed that everyone is interested in you. come to think of it, there are websites looking to have more members,for marketing purposes. so why not be interested on earning friends?

Whenever I have a friend request I usually accept it right away. HAHA!
I just like to accept friend requests!
HAHA! And besides why why prolong the process if later on you will just accept the request/invitation. HAHA! Right?
Happy MyLotting!

No, I can honestly say I have not done this. The more "friends" you have the merrier. :-) Many people on this site have really interesting things to say and questions to ask. So, why limit yourself to only a few people, when basically you have the whole world within your reach? :-) I enjoy the fact of adding new people to my friends list because I like variety. :-)
