    I don't really mind it much, I just accept and then have a chat with the person that sent it. ^^

  • Hmm, I do not find them annoying, as it leans to more tiresome. A person I don't know could possibly be my best friend in the future? Who knows? I take a chance and add them. If they proved to be boring or a waste of time, then their user-name would probably be taken off by the next month.

  • I don't really care about random friend requests. I've learned that people have their own reason for doing things, and I should accept that. Iono, it's hard to explain (probably because I'm exhausted and can't think straight XDD), but yeah. I'm also too nice to turn down a request. I feel rude if I do. ;;

  • I get them occasionally. I know I seem picky when I say this, but I'm careful who I add. It's just I'd rather only add people I know and chat with a lot. I don't really care for seeing bunches of people I don't know with a + next to their name in the who's online list.

    I accept them, but we need to talk first. But it's just a friend list it's not really your friend. >.> >.> I get that a lot.

    I hate random friendship requests. And then it really gets my gull when they don't talk to me after I say I'd like to get to know them better first. Pisses me off. .​

  • If I've never spoken to the person other than a random thread in OT a few times, then I usually ignore the request. However if I've actually spoken to the person and gotten to know them, then chances are that they will be added.

  • I don't mind them, but usually if someone randomly adds me, I'll also get a nice VM asking how I am. I will usually talk to them a bit and then accept, but if it's only an add, I automatically deny it.

  • I generally have to have met them/know their name/exchanged a few words, though there are obviously exceptions. Generally if I don't know them, I'll send them a message asking who they are.

  • I used to accept any FR that came in but then noticed my list was just about at 200 last week and stopped. I pruned it (down to just under 100--it was so hard XD) and now I'll be a lot more careful about the people I accept.

    ._. I wish I could cut it down even more but everyone on it is already someone I talk to often, talk to enough that I don't mind having them on my list, or someone I talked to all the time in the past. After being here so long that list just really adds up. @_@

    I try to talk to people who randomly friend request me. If they talk to me for a while, then I'll accept them. If they don't, then I don't accept.
    If people talk to me for a while then I'll accept it for sure.

    Also, I have the nasty habit of removing people from my friend list if they don't talk to me for a long time, with the exception of some really good and memorable friend.
