My Strangest Friend Request Yet

I think I have a 5 discussion old one and maybe a 13 discussion old, I guess its your piercing eyes that draw them in. But to give you credit your almost 4090 discussions old, maybe they see you as a patriarch of myLot. I'd accept them, if they don't like you they can always delete you.

Depends on my mood, actually! There are tiems when I just approve anyone and delete them after 1 month when I have not seen them in my discussions. I think they got our names in the top discussions because every once in a while our discussions were there.

For users who haven't got 100 posts yet, or haven't responded to my discussions or I haven't responded to theirs, I let them sit and ruminate a bit and see what kind of user they seem to be. If they turn out to be here just to shill their referrals, I delete them then. I am always hopeful, however, that they chose me to request friendship because we have lots in common.

Let them sit and see what happen in other discussions,that will tell you if they have a genuine interest or are just randomly choosing ppl

I usually "sit" on them a bit, myself. I check them periodically to see if they are being active or only collecting friends on the mistaken notion that collecting friends alone can earn money (I've assumed). If they aren't active after a week or so, I deny them. If it does appear that they are trying to be active and have begun responding to discussions I've seen (maybe those of my friends, etc), I'll accept them. But, I myself don't have that many friends since I tend to be more focused on writing. I'm afraid that having too many friends will make it too hard for me to do them justice, so I've kept my own list more manageable for me.

Ive had a few of those, have like 10 posts, and when I checked they havent responded in anything ive been in at all. Ive wondered how they have found me too. If its below 50 posts, and the person hasnt posted anywhere I have, I dont approve it. If they have posted there, ill check out others they have posted, and I also check out their friends if they have any. Though no matter who it is, if they are requesting me I will always check out their friends to see if we have any in common. If they are cool enough to be on some of my friends lists, then they are cool enough to be on mine, and yes mykl you are one of the ones I look for lol.

I really do not know how these users choose our names.
I checkout their profile pages checking their ages and started discussions, then if they appeal to me I will accept them.
Otherwise off with their heads.

the one with an 8 I would just delete because they are randomly picking people to request with
now the one that just signed up 15 minutes ago sends up red flags
it may be that they are a reincarnation of another user that was freinds with you
depending on the type of feeling i get from them i would either accept or leave them sit there and watch them for a bit to see if I could ID their writing style

He/she just probably just got on a new sight and saw how much friends everybody else had and wants to make a lot of friends to. He probably saw your name in the discussion page or something. That's all I could think of.

i accept all who send me a request.
i collect them like a big game hunter collects animal heads on a wall.
of course i look at their profile and depending on what they're in to and sometimes what country they're from determines whether i turn their "notify" on or off.
that said though one of these days i'm going to clean house because a lot of the earlier friends i accepted still only have like 10 or 20 posts which tells me they're not even here anymore.
