if you get a friend request do you just except them or do you ask them why they have added them if you do not know who they are? I have 900 friends and i know at least 700 how about you?

I am willing to add people on my friends list here without any question. Because I know in the long run we will be helping each other here. By responding to their discussions and them responding to my discussions. I don't have any priority or anything like that on here on whether or not they will be added to my friends list. I don't have very many people on my list but I only know one person on my list here for now. Because she has been my friend before even being apart of mylot.

i accept all friend requests,don't know why,maybe coz i don't want to offend anyone by turning them down,or coz i'm feeling in a good mood,,who knows,,maybe i just like the idea of feeling popular,, hahaha

I accept anyone. Doesn't matter if I know them or not, their age or where they live. I do have all email notifications turned on so I get a ton of discussions sent to me each day. No way I can respond to all of them. I try real hard to keep up with a selected few but can't always manage that one either.

I add them all, or are we talking about Mylot friends or from different social network site. Here in Mylot when I received an invitation, I do not have second thoughts I approved them all. I don't care if they will just add me for referral because they can be a possible referral to me too! and sometimes those people who add me are those not in my friendlist but I responded on there discussion which I think they appreciate.

When someone ask to become a friend I always accept them. I don't think it a problem. What gets me is if I ask to be a friend and I get no response. Then I wonder why what did I do? ![](/Content/images/emotes/lol.gif)

As this is primarily a social networking site ,so our main objective is to make new friends,share our experiences and views.So theres no point of asking questions like who are you,or do i really know you.Once we add them as our friend we have a good chance to know them at least. theres no point of refusing a friend request just because you don't know that guy.

I go to their profile and see who they are and what they have submitted in the way of responses and discussions. Most of the time I accept them after that. I don't really know many of my friends.

I know all of my friends in Facebook. I don't accept friend requests from people I don't know. I'm really very careful with this social networking site. I have friends whose photos were used by someone - stalker or stranger, we don't know. Her photos were used in another social networking site. It's always best and safest to accept requests from people you know.

It is good like you said in Facebook, Myspace, Friendster, Tagged, Frenzone, Mylot and more. Some they have 3,000 to 5,000 friends. And have 2-3 account. Most of famous and Gorgeous have tons of friends.

In my case, I just simply accept friend's requests 'coz it will also increase members in Mafia Wars and Restaurant City. Ahehehe...

Hi there. I use to have facebook and at one point I had over 400 friends but most of them were just people from my school and i actually only talked about 50 of them. i think its stupid that people add you to facebook if there arent even your friend or have not intentions of ever talking to you. I call those people friend collectors. I just dont see how you can have like 100 friends on facebook because no one has 100 friends on real life so what the point.
I ended up deleting everyone I didnt talk to and if I would get a new friend request of someone I wasnt actually friends with I would deny them and ask them why the add me. Most of them would never answer.
Thanks for this question...its a good one definitely!!!
