Do you see how active the member is? or do you go to profile and check what are the discussions...do they interest you or not?...or you just see the name too often here on mylot pages and you add them?.....or do you search in your friend's list who are their active friends and then you request some of them?...i have hardly requested anyone here..one friend i recently added....was becoz i saw him responding to my discussions though he was not in my friend's list...so i thought it better to add him...mostly i just keep approving?...what about you?..how do you find friends here?

Most of the names on my friend list requested me. When I receive a request I check the user's profile to see what they are interested in and ow active they are. I also notice their location too so that I know whether we will be here at the same time. I usually accept them all, even if they are new users with very little activity because only when we are 'friends' can we exchange PMs and maybe those requests from newer users are because they need help and advice about how to use MyLot. I request a user when I see them making interesting posts and really enjoying themselves here. I never 'see the name too often here' I love seeing names over and over again and knowing that they are here regularly and it's good to have those users on my friend list too. It means the chance of a lot of interaction.

Eshan please don't make me blush Those are such sweet words and I don't deserve them. I am only 'famous' because I use my skates and go all over the place and sometimes land where fun things are happening and... I turn a discussion upside down Yes I still remember where we met and I remember that you requested me too. I have many names on my friend list but they are each special and I know them all for something particular that happened. I know I should get to your discussions more often than I do and please give me a nudge every now and then when you feel I am neglecting you @ Barefoot Another friend request coming your way! Welcome aboard abd I hope you will enjoy your travels here!

Hi eshaan, I haven't made any friend request for quite a long period. For I'm rather busy with my personal affair and seldom start new discussions at the moment. I don't have any criteria to choose friends here. I'm happy to add anyone who sends friend request. There are more choice for me to pick different kind of discussions which interest me. It's impossible to answer all the emails I receive daily. Yeah, there are in a long list. I have limited time and I can type a few of posts only daily. Anyway I find more fun if having friends who like to interact in posts Happy posting

Thanks for liking to see my avatar You know once I learn from the email you have started a discussion I usually will keep the interesting one in the mailbox. I try to reply them during my leisure. But sometimes I still have to make another second choice by picking another time due to time limited...therefore you won't see me in all the discussions started. I know you long a ago when you using the feather as your avatar. That time we were not fried yet. After inactive for a certain period you are back again here using the current avatar. At that time I approved your friend request. We then come to know each other well after having many interaction in our discussions. It seems that you are quite active recently. Let's have more fun with our friends here. Take care

From the beginning, I didn't invited any friends and just waited for them to add me. The reason behind this is the update page will get so confusing and I will have a hard time looking discussions in my interests so I chose to do it that way.

i don't make any criteria to choose whom i will be friends to. First because this is a virtual world which we can't know the unknown person yet before we meet eyes to eyes. But as a matter of fact, i welcome all person who welcome me either. Or when we have the similarities in hobbies or other topics, it will be more easy to make friends.

Hi eshaan.. I add friends here if there discussions and responses interests me.. but when it comes to friend request I just approve whichever request i get.. If they are not active for very long like 6 months or one year then I might delete them from the list and also if some one misbehaves with me then also I will remove them from my friends list..

I go for the mind set of the user here, the way discussions are presented, responses given and comments made. By and by before I know I will have a couple of friends with whom I shall even exchange my email address but that will take time.

yes...exchanging...email ids will definitely take time...i do it only if someone wants to know about some site or so...

I really dont have a criteria when it comes to approving friends here in mylot! for as long as we can get along well with each other then thats pretty fine with me. Unless theres this limit to the number of friends that you might have then im not at all thinking about giving any criteria or whatsoever i really want to be friends with just bout anybody because i want to learn alot from this site. ;)

yes...i have also not rejected anyone....but i also don't make too many requests myself...as i get too little time...i come and respond or start discussion...but i also add whoever requests me ..... after all we don't know each other personally so no problem adding anyone...this is just for interaction
