How long does it take you to decide if you would accept a friend request or not?

For me when I see the person that is really a friend that exchanging ideas in a long time. I will accept it and even those new comer that request for friendship I will accept as kind of respect for their personality and hoping they will help in the near future...Have a nice day, angelajoy!!!

i accept any friend request and don't give any thought into it. i'm just glad someone requests to be my friend.

I normally accept a request a few minutes after I check out there profile. I really don't care what a person promotes, I might be interested in their products or service one day, or at least know someone who does need it.

It depends on the person and the situation. If the person that we are talking about is someone that I have noticed frequently responds to the discussions that I have started or the same discussions that I take place in, then I am likely to accept them right away. However, there are a lot of requests that I get from people that haven't taken part in many discussions and for those people it takes me quite some time to accept if I ever even accept it at all.

Normally, it would only take me a few minutes to accept a friend's request. If for some reason, I'm not familiar with the name, it is my responsibility to look it up and it would take about 2 to 3 days to confirm such request. If after that time, I could verify the request, I decline the request.

Instantly. as soon as there's an email message. I used to received spam messages when i was just starting but i'm not taking it against the sender. After all, it's up to me whether i would sign up to their sites or not. I occasionally send friend requests as well and i check if there are pending requests. If my request has been pending for at least a week i usually delete that request since i presume that that person don't want to be my mylot friend. Which does not make much of a difference anyway since i can still post to his or her discussions anyway.

I just add them and if they turn out to be a spamer I just delete them. The lists on here and other sites are not even really "freind" lists anymore it's more like how many people I can get on my list.

I don't allow any request pending for long as I feel uneasy as long as I see the number besides that friends column. I have to approve it to get the figure out of my sight. Unless if the person has zero participation here and would wait for one or two days but in the end I will also approve them. But I have one case where that person deleted me and requested me again, that one I let it hang on there for days but in the end he canceled his request. Good riddance! I don't see the rational behind all his actions to delete and request again.

Hi angelajoy, It doesn't take me long to figure out whether or not to accept a friend request. I went thru a spell where I was very cautious but that was due to a troll that was wreaking havoc around here. most of the requests are from members that I recognize as responding to my discussions or ones that I've been on. I don't think much on it and accept them. If they immediately start spamming me then it is an easy fix. I just delete them.

It depends on which site I receive the friends request on. On mylot I tend to accept anyone who sends me a request, but on sites such as myspace or facebook I tend to think more carefully before accepting. I tend not to add people on those sites unless I already know them or if they have contacted me due to us both having a mutual friend.

Hello, Angela. I usually decide to accept on the day the request is made. I go to the profile of the requester and look at their posts and started discussions. If the posts are good, and some are in my interests, I'll usually accept the request. However, if all the posts are in the moneymaking interests, I'll deny the request, as to me that sends out a warning signal. Banners on the profile page don't put me off if the posts are interesting, as several of my good friends here have banners, but have never tried to spam anyone. Yesterday I had an FR from someone who hasn't made a single post yet, and I turned that down, as that is usually an indication that they want referrals rather than friends. I have some very good friends on here, and the main reason is because I'm selective about accepting and making FRs. To me, friends are people I share interests with and interact with on a regular basis. The spammers don't see a friend, they see a fresh earning opportunity.

Hi Angela, Nothing to think about...i accept a friend's request immediately. if you will give in to their invitation for any website promotions for online earning that's all up to you. but i always accept all mylot friends invitation. though i experienced not being accepted by some-- i still have at least six invitees in my friends list who never accepted my invitation. i respect their decision. friendship here is not a hard sell-- no pressure. but with online earnings i am extra careful!

I accept most friend requests. I will look at their profile first, but I have never turned one down yet. I was not aware that some people make requests and then try to get referrals or promote their websites.

Hello! If he's a Filipino, it just takes me a minute to accept friend request. I want to meet other Filipinos especially here in Mylot. For others, I always look on their profile first, then accept. I don't actually reject people. It just takes me a time to think if I will accept his request. But normally I am the one who send friend requests. I want to gain more friends even if I can't get to know him personally. I hope I have answered your question right. Have a nice day!

I don't even for seconds...i accept whenever there is a request ....and even i have never bothered for those links sent to me...if i have time..i see the link..otherwise just neglect the mail...and if ever someone disturbs me too much..then i will delete that friend..though i have never done this till now..i make friends just to respond to the discussions...and that i do regularly....though the friends may not care to reply mine...

HI, It would take me a minute to approve them as well... I dont mind for anyone adding me as a friends. If they treat me good then I will do the same back to them. If they just want for their benefit then I will let them go easy as well

I am also watching out for those people who makes a friend request so that they can get referrals. Once, as soon as I accepted a friend request, I received several PMs asking me to join this and that. I did not like that. So now, I check out the person's profile first and see the discussions he has started. I respond to one or two discussions before going back and accepting the friend request. So far, I do not think I have rejected a friend request yet. Have a nice day!

i dont care who i add, only sometimes but usually i dont even check n the person i just add them on random so that i can get more friends..

as soon as i see it. i accept all friend requests, always (i'm friendly and love to have bunch of friends). but every end of the month, i review my friends list, and if i find out they're not familiar to me, i send them message that i'll delete them from my list, courtesy??? :D

i accepted them as soon as i saw a request. because i'm new here, i want to have many friend. yes its true that friends i accepted would send me links on their website.. and for me. i only give links to those who like to view it.
