I don't have a friend's list lmao. Back in the day I would add everyone, and to be honest, it was just for popularity reasons.

But now I don't really care about having a friend's list, and to be honest it can involve a lot of drama too, like if you took someone off your list because of some sort of drama, or they're just doing it for their own reasons and it makes the other person question why? (unless your list is super big and they don't even notice they're removed)

It's like in real life, you don't walk around with a box full of names of your friends (although there is phone contacts....) Your friends are just there, not contained in a list of some sort.

Sadly, I had been off of PC for years because I decided to become a semi-casual, so I don't really have any friends FROM PC
I do have online friends who're on PC, but I had met them on another forum

I'll pretty much accept friend requests from anyone, but if you're mean to me then well... you'll likely not get it accepted. I rarely get one who's been picking on me, but I know it happened in the past.

I add people when I have established that we are friends. I don't chat with all of them often or at all, but I often feel comfortable enough to post VMs to them or talk with them whenever I see them around the forums. :)

I accept all friend requests because it's really no big deal to me who is and isn't on my list - don't feel there's a need to be picky for myself personally. A lot of my requests come from new members who I welcomed so we've already gotten acquainted in a way.. and I know some people are more inclined to stick around if they know another person.

Though it's about time to do some cleaning. <_<; Over 300 friends now and a good bit of them probably don't sign on anymore. I try to remove those who haven't been on in a month+.

All the people on my friends list I have actively spoken to either in the present, or in the past. There are people on my friends list who I haven't spoken to regularly in a very long time and are still quite active, but I keep them on my friends list because they made an impact to me during my time here. For some of them, I wouldn't say we are friends anymore, but for the majority of them, I do keep in contact with them even though it's pretty minimum. Pretty much the only people I actively talk to on here anyway that are also active are Geoff, Mallory, and Juli.

I accept any incoming friendship request, but am too lazy to add others. Well, maybe when I can get a conversation going, or something like that...

I am extremely open to adding friends on my list. I would be more talkative, too, but to be honest, I am awful at initiating conversations. I almost always believe that I am being bothersome to others, due to experiencing so many instances of being flat-out ignored. I love having conversations, but aside from the few I chat with on here, my phone is perpetually silent.

I normally add people that already had a decent conversation with me. Or maybe newbies that happened to find my username cool. I swear that's what I get back when using Illusione-Tempus.

Or maybe I'll add someone that I like (in a friendly way) that I've seen a lot of times in threads. Too bad I'm not the type to initiate a conversation, 'cause I'm that socially awkward. P:

I try to add as many people from here as I can on skype even if I don't like them to increase my PC Cred™

I add anyone who sends me a request, it really doesn't worry me having a long list of them. Most of them probably don't even go here anymore lol, I haven't looked at it in ages.

I tend to be one of those who keep their friends list as small as possible. I have around 55 friends and I talk to 95% of them.

I think I've spoken to a majority of the people on my friends list at least once, but all of the people on my friends list are not necessarily people I'd consider friends. I accept all friend requests I get, but I rarely send out any unless it's people I've known for a while and/or have spoken with a lot, and neither has sent a friend request. So basically you can say, if I've sent the person a friend request myself, I most likely consider them a friend. Not to say that it doesn't apply to the people that sent me a FR or the ones I don't even have on my friends list, it's just more likely. I rarely ever send friend requests though, as a fear of being rejected. It's always hit hard on me for whatever reason. That's also part of the reason why I never turn down requests.

But all in all, my friends list is open to everyone, I'll accept any requests I get, but I'll only send ones if I consider that person a friend. I only ever clean up if a person gets permabanned, which is rare, but it does happen.

I don't really send out requests anymore but I'll accept one as long as I've talked to the person before or seen them around, I don't really like accepting unless I know who they are.
