Hi guys, I've been away from my lot for a quiet a bit of time as I've been a very busy bunny, still am. But today I decided to stop by and see whats new here and OMG I almost died from choking on my sandwich after I saw 1,254 Friend Requests.
At first I thought my lot has gone mad again and they doing their upgrades they always seem to do without telling us so I logged out, shut down my computer and restarted and logged in, but still there it was friends(1254)
I clicked on the icon and there it was.. about 14 pages of friend requests
Now I know its good to get friend requests but WTF?? Is this a typo or are people dumping the friends they rejected to me, or there's a friend swapping service here??
I don't know if its my computer or network but surely there's something wrong there..
Anyone care to explain how the hell one gets 1254 friend requests on mylot? Facebook yes, my lot... never heard of that one!
Whats the most number of friend requests you've received?

Well, I'm going to keep checking in to see what has happened and if you did get all these. I still can't help but chuckle about it, and actually, I can see this happening with all the new people here lately on myLot. Let us know cause I'm curious. Maybe I'll wait until tomorrow to see if you have more friend requests, then I'll ask to be your friend and top it off at 1255, haha!

hi jellymonty how long were you away? I was away for the weekend as mycomputer had a virus, so then when I got back I had almost five hundred emails but only two or three friends requests. I think unless you were gone for a month or longer thats not possible, I mean 1254 friends requests. wow. I have never got
more than two or three at one time myself. I have a lot of friends as I have been here a couple of years, but not all at one time. wow again. I would ask mylot admins about this as it might have been a error. maybe a duplication of these requests in fact.

I have not been active the last two months and I barely stop by these days. I think its some kind of error mainly on my side so I'll have to re-check my system..

Hi jelly. I don't know how many friends requests I've had on here as I don't keep track. LOL However, I know it's never been as many as that! As it is, I currently don't have even one as I always do my best to accept any request right off the bat that I happen to get.
You can accept or deny, it's completely up to you. Though you better start going thorough the requests, so that they don't keep piling up on you.
(Sorry for the silly little rhyme at the end, but what can I say, I just couldn't resist! )
Happy mylotting!

Haha that is a lot of friend requests but if you have flicked through the 14 pages and they are all people asking to be your friend then I guess they are genuine friend requests! If you have been away for a while then they do add up I have been away for a while on and off and although I have not had as many friend requests as you, I have had a few! I know something though, it will take you a while to get through them all so good luck with that!

Hell, burn 'em. Forget about it! Hey really is that really you in that picture. I'm curious cause I used to work in a sales force and those nutty girls who weren't pretty would send pictures of someone else and they would get more sales.
It worked, so that's good. I din't have to cause I was pretty back them.

Hi monty!
I have never experienced this figure or as much requests. I think my total number of friends would be far lesser than 1000. You see you appear to have some magnate in your that is why many users get attracted towards you and keep sending you requests for add. You have three choices - (i) to keep all the requests pending; (ii) to go to each one's profile or check his/her number of posts and then decide about accepting the request and (iii) deny the request, if you do not want to enlarge your list of friends.
I believe you already have many users in your friends' list.
Have a nice day!

That is really weird. I've never gotten more than 2 or 3 in a day and most days go by without any. And I didn't see any discussions telling people to add you because you were lonely.

Wow, that's a lot, I never get friend request with over one person. If I get they sometime offer me to be their referrals then I just ignoring and keep myloting. Perhaps, it's your old friend then you can accepted them.

Hello, Jelly. That's a funny one. It sounds as if it has to be some sort of glitch, doesn't it? The most FRs I've had in one day is about 10, and as I log on several times a day for short spells, there's never more than 2 or 3 to process. I don't just accept them straight away, I always check the profiles to see if we have interests in common. I like to keep in touch with my friends and their discussions, so I keep my list manageable.
Funnily enough, I haven't had many FRs recently - now I know why - you got them all!

hi Jellymonty,
Hey, Sexy What's up. you know i haven't been active for a while too. but i think you must have forgot to delete friends request...since you join mylot i think. i believe you should check between those who are active or not. frankly i don't have having inactive people but i am inactive now maybe will be active soon. just check,delete and if you don't like them all then delete them all.
Have a Great Day

Wow you have been gone for a long time to get that many friend requests. If I had disappeared and reappeared to return to that many friend requests, I'm not sure what I would do. Even just mindlessly approving them would take several hours of work to do. I am lucky to only get a handful at a time. Of course, I log in every day, so that could be why.

It is really great to have so much friends. But the thing is do all of them know you? Or atleast talk to you or message you regularly?
I have 30 odd friends in mylot. But only 2 or 3 have messaged me till now. I dont know what they do once the friend request is accepted.
