Mylot Friends: Approve everyone? Or are you more selective?

I approve everyone too. I see no reason not to. I don't know one person from the other. I try to help them out as much as possible by responding to their questions if I can. If they post an excess of one word answer questions I answer a few and then I move on but I keep them on my friend list. I think a lot of people are on here that don't use English as their native tongue and it may be difficult for them to ask lengthy questions.

I think now that just giving everybody a chance is a good way to do it. If you really need to you can always delete somebody later. But everybody should get a chance. I responded to a posting on here once that was submitted by someone who was crushed by being rejected by someone she'd asked to be her friend. It was something she'd put a lot of thought into. I was very affected by that. I can see that it sometimes takes some courage to ask someone to be your friend and risk getting rejected. I just submitted three requests. I waited until I had three people I was interested in having for friends. I figure they probably won't all reject me so I'll have something positive. I am SUCH a wimp!

i think if someone would like to join under i will approve him/her,but as far as i send invitation for my friend, their dont have to join this mylot in under me.hiks :((

No, I don't approve every friend request. I try to browse on their profile first prior to accepting a friend request. If I see that they start to much discussions more than they respond, I turn them down because they clog my firends started discussions.

for me i approve... is not effect for mme.. but it gave a good to mylot

I am and always have been selective when it comes to adding friends when it comes to a website, whichever it may be. I think some people take pride on having an extensive friends list, it seems they use that as a tool to make an impact on others, you know? Like, "look at me, I have so many diverse friends, surely I'm loved by everyone!". To me it makes no sense adding people just because, so I suggest you to be more careful from now on because I don't really see the point of having a wide selection of friends when you only get to know a certain few. I've added you as a friend quite recently and I'm glad you accepted. I did read some of your responses and as I've noticed a clear quality in them that was the reason that has lead me to add you as one :)

hi,im not selective but i try and read all before i approve. if i do approve someone and they are not active in 2 months then ill delet them, as it takes up space and i can add others who do participate and dont just want to have a high friends list,is that wrong

I used to just accept them all without question. But I did a clean up of friends list not long ago because they either didn't post anything that held any interest to me or didn't show an interest in my discussions. So now I make sure to look at their profiles first before accepting or denying

Normally i accept everybody that send me a invite,only if i see something really bad or abusive at the person's profile that i dont accept,i'm here to have fun and make money,not to have bad discussions or trouble..

I usually just approve everyone i feel really guilty after that if i deny atleast one person.

I approve everyone. However, if they start a discussion that I find really offensive (I'm pretty thick-skinned, but everyone has their limits) or if they post 123156486413215 spammy posts a day, I will remove them.

well, since I am new and don't have a lot of friends, I have been accepting. I'm not sure it's the right thing to do, but I personally don't have the time to check out everyone's profile. I put everyone on notify and if I get a notice and it's something of interest than I'll post. It's seems to work well for now, but than again I only have 32 friends.

I'm willing to approve anyone at this point i have no friends! :(

I just approve everyone. I think it's polite to add them since they want to be my friend. The more friends the better I think. Maybe they look forward to my posts or something.

always when got frends request i read or at least scan discussion they posted, so this way i know more or less what somebody thinks. today i did same thing and the reason of denying was that i didnt like the person becoz one discussion of the guy was like: why god gave more brain to boys than girls. it showed how primitive the person was. maybe he just wanted to be schoking but he is Indian so i think he really thinks that.

I approve everyone that asks me to be their friend. I figure that afterwards if they write some discussions that I can't reply to or don't want to reply to it's ok and I just don't respond.

Hmmm. This is a tough one. I usually choose a friend that I think will respond to my discussions, and ones that I know I will respond to theirs. I always look at the sort of topics they start, and therefore get an idea of if I can help them by responding to their topics... you got me?? I kinda confused myself during that explaination! haha. But generally I look and most people I will be able to respond to some of their discussions so I accept them (I accept more than I refuse... probably because I don't have many friends in my list! hahaha). Love and light.

I actually joined this site after someone posted about it on another forum I frequent. When the info to join the site got posted.. a lot of people from the other forum joined this forum too. The majority of my friends here are people that frequent the other forum too. I have had a few others invite me to be their friend. I will check their profile and if we have something in common (like a tv show I watch) or I notice they post interesting discussions I would accept them.

I approve everyone. I guess I kinda look at is like this, someone I add as a friend could pose a really good discussion question. The only thing I have to do is pull up the questions my friends have asked.

I am selective on accepting any freinds by going thru their profiles
