Do you add people that you do not know in facebook?

I only add people that I know I don't add people that I don't know or have ever meet. When people send me friends request and I do know them and my husband doesn't know them I just hit the ignore button because I don't want strangers that I don't know having me as there friend.

I dont add those whom i dont know in my real life. I am not interested in making virtual friend in facebook. Usually i message the person who send me request that if they know me or not, do i know them in real life.... You can try this.

And that's the way I do it. I have always just had real friends on facebook. I have somethi ng like 15 friends. They're all people that I have worked with or friends that have moved out of state. You have to be careful these days.

I have to second the motion on that, I don't add strangers in my facebook.

yeah i ever same like you.there are some friend who we dont know about it. there are people who add us because of game that we play.if there stranger who disturb me.i will block them and report it to facebook.

I also only add people that I know, mostly because I just think its weird let strangers view pictures and read statuses about my life when they dont even know me!

I do not add people that I do not know, as I can not see the reason for having strangers as friends. Some people add for the sake of it, other people have fake ids and they seem to add the people that they want to spy on, sad but true. I have not bothered with face book much, as it is the same old stuff, as well as the same old people on there and some are only on there to get all the gossip and add to what they have read, which causes trouble.

Yes, I've added quite a lot of people under my friends--known or unknown to me. But they don't really bother me...considering that I rarely visit facebook now. I have no interest with facebooking in the present time. Maybe later, I will, once I return to my responsibilities and I have to maintain a constant communication with the people I'll be involving with...and it'll be a problem then. But for now, I'll just leave them be. Oh, I did once block someone. But that is someone I knew from school. I blocked him because he never fails to send me a chat whenever I login and before I can even look around. I mean, doesn't that annoy anyone? Well, I was and so the action. Anyways, I'm so happy with it. I'm at peace!

some people i know become my facebook friend some people i don`t know but have a same mutual hobbies or interest, i add them as facebook friend (include mylot member..of course i don`t know them exactly..i never meet another mylotter in my life)

i don't just add anyone in my FB account. We have these group in during my HS and our officers just add anyone they think is our batchmate in which infact i didn't know who they are, so basically i delete them. Even though i know some i just don't feel to add them, i really don't add them to my friends list.

I choose to add people I know. I want to have fun and talk with them. No need for me to add strangers.

yes i have added people like that but for mostly the games. if i have added someone who was harassing me i would report them to facebook. i just added a few or so to play songpop cause alot of my friends don't play it.

I sometimes add Friends of Friends that I have seen. But I never add complete strangers.

When I had just signed up in facebook, I would approve all friend requests. A few months later, some of my facebook friends started sending me lewd messages in my inbox. A certain lady had the audacity to ask me for a lesbian relationship without knowing that am not a lesbian. I was so offended. To add insult to injury, she started insulting through her comments on one of my photos. I therefore decided to be careful when approving friend requests. I have to be sure that at least I have interacted with you somehow.

Occasionally I'll get the random friend request from people I have absolutely no idea who they are. I used to but these days, no. I don't accept friend requests from random strangers I don't know. I've long said it's kin of akin to, in real life, walking up to a random stranger in a store and saying, "hi! Let's be friends!" Chances are, the person would look at you like you're crazy. It just doesn't work that way. It makes about as much sense online on Facebook. Besides, I've heard some frightening stuff happening from people doing that, including that government agents have made fake accounts to spy on people (not as a rumor either, I recall actually reading about that on Yahoo or some news site once). If I know the person to some real degree, sure. But otherwise no.

I have used Facebook as my means of getting people to know about the products and services that I offer. And yes, I have added people whom I don't know because I want my online business to spread out within the Facebook community in our Country.

I normally wouldn't add people that I do not know personally but I need to maximize the use of this social networking site so I made another account where I do some marketing strategies and other things like promoting other sites to gain referrals and earnings while my old facebook account I use only for my families and people that I know or close to my heart. I manage them separately so I wouldn't really have any issues with privacy because I do understand that other facebook users use this site to promote or market something that is why they add every users/people as they can. It is because the more friends they have, the greater possibility that their posts would be noticed and seen.

I only add people as friends when I know them personally or if we share the same last name :), my surname is unique that's why.

When I was a BIG fan of SL (sorority life) on FB, I added any and everybody that played the game. Male or female..lol I never had anyone harass me though. The guys were married anyway and I had their wives as friends too. However, I always get random friend requests from people I don't even know either. Usually, it's from people who are friends with someone else I'm friends with already. Other times, I think its just because they want to be nosy. smh Lol. Otherwise, I don't add people I don't know. What's the point?

Yes, I do add people I don't know personally in facebook. Most of them I added yes, through social games. This is cyberworld so I make cyberfriends in facebook even here in mylots. I don't delete friends unless I have a compelling reasons to do. So far, I have not deleted a single friend out of my 3,662 friends in facebook.
