I know most of you are adding friends but never actually met them in real life or never knew them at all. but still most users from mylot has been adding friends from here and there and so on.
I add a few but some of them are lower than 200+ post. I don't know i have doubts adding them now and then. Is it that Bad? or am I just too picky on People.
what do you think? unless that person is my friend, i may have to think twice of adding him or her.
Have a nice day.

Hi Mika!
I know that friends we add here are virtual friends, they are not like real life friends. Whenever someoe posts interesting discussions and I respond to them and he/she reciprocates, I send her/him a request for add. Also, those who write some quality responses to my own discussions and their responses appeal me and touch me, I also send them request for add. Many members send me requests for add, normally I add them after checking their profile details, however, if I find that the user has not started even a single discussion or has very less number of posts to his credit or he is too young, I hesitate to add him/her. I keep reviewing my list periodically to see whether my friends are participating in my discussions or vice versa and if I find that no interaction is taking place between us, I simply delete his/her name from list, I just do not prefer having 'inactive' friends in my list.

Hi Mika!
You see when you read someone's response and it appeals you and you feel that the respondent has attempted the response very sincerily and honestly and s/he really 'mean' what s/he is writing, then you feel a sense of belonging and you feel that you can 'connect' to the person because s/he has something substantial and meaningful to say. Consequently, you send him/her a request for add, hoping that you will have a good time in your discussion(s) and vice versa.

I don't think it is good or bad, but just a choice based on your personal preferences. I add people I've gotten to know and respect through the discussions here, people that are nice.

Actually, I don't even think too much about adding friends. I guess mostly it is someone that I might have a dialog with when I answer their question or they answer mine.
For me, online friends are not like real friends. I think online friends only means you share similar interests. Real friends is much more than that usually.
Mostly I just like to read and write comments. And if I remember to add a friend then I will. But I don't think it means more than that. Maybe if you know someone a long time online it's different.
So I guess, mostly it only is a convenient way to keep track of someone that you shared comments with. That way you help one another in comments and earnings. Maybe if you do it for a long time online friends can become real friends.

I just check out their profile page. If they post on topics I find interesting, I add them... If they only have one or two started discussions and the topics are not interesting, I don't add them. It's enough for me to see one or two interesting topics, I add someone as a friend, and if they are not active, I delete them.

That's exactly one of the reasons i don't keep in my page (lolz
except Greeneagle24) If they are
inactive for more than a months then they're gone. i simply just don't want an inactive user clogging the active ones. if they're not around then that means there's absolutely no reason for me to reply to them.

Its ok to be picky on people who you wanted to be friends. but here in mylot, the mroe friends you have, the more option for discussion you can answer. because the question/discussions you see when u visit the site is from you friends discussions. I also agree that you only accept those with more then 200 post, but its ok to add them at least they'll have more friends and the newbie on the site will know and maybe pick new tips from you base on your discussion that they can answer.
have fun mylotting.

I don't have a specific criteria for adding people as a friend on mylot. Most of the time I don't even add people as a friend on mylot, unless they are sending me a link. I just accept everybody that requests me as a friend.
