Facebook - Do you ever ignore friend requests?

I personally ignore them daily. I have about 8 right now that are pending, that's one of the unfortunate features of Facebook, the fact that anyone you allow in your network/friends list can see anything you post. I try to be careful about who allow on my list. I've been on facebook for about 3 years now, maybe longer and I only have about 90 friends.. I know ALL of the people on my list personally. They are either classmates, business partners or former co-workers.

Hi adamc151,No,i never ignored friends request in face book.I always confirm all friend requests.Besides i love having many friends,and i think it is a good way to start a good friendship online.Good luck!

Yes, I've ignored a friend request on Facebook before. The name did look familiar, but it turned out to be someone else. So, I ended up denying the request. However, they sent another friend request shortly after that. So I sent an email to this person to see why they were requesting it in the first place. It turns out they were looking for relatives. But I don't think we are related as there are no matches between our family trees. Anyway, by what this person told me they send out requests on a regular basis in order to find more family members. And as our last name is the same the last thing I want is for them to keep sending me requests. So, I just ignore the request instead. Happy mylotting!

Yes I am ignoring some friend request just this month. Frankly before I am open to a lot of friends who used to add me. But I learned a lot from this thing, its really hard to add some friends that you really don't know and one day talking to you that's like you really friends, it was really scary! Before I had 400 friends in facebook but now it was down to 200 since I deleted those on my list that I really don't know. Well, this time we need to be careful and not to trust anybody who are not really our friends. I guess that the best way to be careful.

yes i also aproved more requests in facebook and okut

yes, i often ignore friend request.especially the person i don't know at all.i'm getting bored of facebook now,i have many pending friends request that i haven't accepted.i have only few frinds in my list,i'm just play game when i log into my facebook account.

yes i just did one because i have no idea who the person is and never even heard of them before. also awhile back this guy i went to high school with who was really mean to me requested me as a friend and ignored him too. what the heck would i want to be friends with him for? he was such a jerk and probably still is in my opinion.

Yea of course everyone did. it is because there are many spams out there to get rid of that sometimes we need to be alittle bit ignorance to those spammers

I never ignore people because it is a traffic source for my site, and I might know them even if they don't look familiar. I love talking to people, so the more people I can talk to, the better!

NO, that would be RUDE DUDE!lol J/K yes I do sometimes.

For me, yes I have. And actually, quite a number. Like you, I tried to find the linkage between me and them but no, I don't. And some are people that I know but I don't want them to view my profile (as I have set mine to private) and they are people whom are just keen to pry on other's private life, thus I keep them at bay.

I ignore people all the time. I get quite a few friend requests from people who have seen their picture on my website, and therefor assume I know them. I usually have no clue who they are, so I ignore them. Sometimes several times actually. I also think that some of them might think they know me since they know my brother, and has he isn't on facebook they try adding me instead. Then there's the people you know who add you but don't tell you that they've married and changed their name since last time you met some 20 years ago. Sometimes I ignore them, and then I get "But we knew eachother in school" message afterwards. Then I usually accept the next request.

I always check there page and pictures to see if i know them.And If i dont know then im deny them.Because never add people you never seen or talk to before in your life im not sayin its not good ot meet new people but not online.

I ignore friend requests whom I don't know at all, so with those whom are mutual friends of somebody but from other groups. In my profession, I get a lot of friend requests, hundreds of them and these are coming from students (I teach). And I prefer my Facebook to be "students-free" because of course sometimes they go beyond the boundaries, they look at you like a celebrity and dig into your personal life. So if ever I will have to have student-friends, then I might create another account (well, I guess the question of where's the social networking there? lies beneath). One time it had happened to me that the ex of my bf really wanted to view our pictures which I kept private. I am nosy of those requests especially coming from strangers, so I kept on rejecting her and she kept on requesting again and again. I just sent her a catching message just in case my suspicion is true that this is really the ex-gf, so I told her, do you want to get mess of our J***** (my bf's name) life? Why not contact him and flirt to him? She replied and threw me a litany how bad I am and my bf is a liar and all... hahaha! Gotcha! So better not to approve friend requests right away if they look strange :)

Sometimes I ignore them,depends who they are.I've accepted people just to be neighbors in the games I play.I don't go on face book too much anymore.I'm getting pretty bored with it.I spend my time here on mylot.

If i do not know the person i will ignore the friend requests of course as they may be hackers or spammers. only if they say "Vampire wars clannies" or other games then i will accept.

I ignore facebook friend requests if I don't know who the person is. It can be dangerous adding users you don't know especially if you're one of those people who puts personal info on their facebook status. It's almost like inviting a stranger to stalk you.

ya i mostly ignor many times many friends request. as unknown people always irritate and make me in trouble. what to talk to them and what topic will b mutual. before i accept any friend request i firstly check dat that friend is real known to me or not

Friend request is pleasure to me ... i never forgett that
