Random friend requests?

    What do you guys think about random friend requests?

    I actually try to get to know they guys a little bit, because I think its weird to have lots of people on a friendslist that I have never talked to. I like getting to know new people a lot, though. :D
     
    I don't like it much when people send random friend requests, i guess it's ok if i see them around the community and i haven't talked tothem, but otherwise i just accept it and then maybe delete them unless they talk to me XD; i'd rather get to know themfirst before acepting, otherwise it would get a bit suspicious...
     
    I would rather the person talks to me first, it nicer than sending random ones.
     
    I hate them, I hate them, I hate them. I remember when I used to do that and I realized I annoyed the heck out of some people. If I've talked to someone before, then they're free to add.
     
    It's kinda heartless to decline one (what if it's your best e-friend-to-be?), so I just accept them and usually VM them afterwards.
     
    I deny them nowadays.. I honestly don't want to add random people.. they tend not to speak to you, or are not worth the time. =/
    I won't deny the fact meeting new people is fun, but when you are added out of nowhere it feels like the other person is just adding you for a higher friend count.

    Gah, Myspace all over again.
     
    I really appreciate the people who VM me first before requesting me.

    Although, I am too nice to reject a friend request, so I usually end up VMing them anyway. ;;
     
    What .Swift said.

    I appreciate being able to talk to people first before they send any friend requests, with the exception of those who I've talked to in the past that just sent me a request out of the blue, then I'd accept it. Otherwise I'd prefer if we had talked before I accept.
     
    When I saw this, I had to reply. Lately, I have been getting random friend requests which has been getting kind of annoying. I'd like to get to know a person before they just randomly come up and send me a request. Unless their profile is blocked and they send a friend request, it'd be a tough decision for me.
     
    I do get them rarely, usually they never come online though so I can't try to get to know them.
    But I really don't mind them coming, but it would be better if you actually got to know them first in my opinion.
     
    I was a random friend request maker myself... But I've learned my lesson.

    It's better to know the person first. :)

    And I make sure that 2 or 3 times a week, I VM my friends... :)
     
    I don't accept random friend requests...If we've talked a few times before, then that's all well and good =P
     
    As if it matters.
    Friend requests are trivial, as is the so called 'friends list'.

    I'll add anyone who wants in it.

    I add anyone who adds me, regardless if I know them or not. It's just a list; it doesn't really matter to me. *shrugs*

    Sometimes I want to clear it and just not use it, but most of the time, I don't feel like it.
     
    I used to grow to get annoyed with random people I didn't know friending me, but I've come to just accept anyone who sends me a friend request. My friend list on PC isn't nearly as what I used to make it out to be. I really... don't care who's on it. Besides, when I used to decline some people, they'd go on and on about how rude I was for not accepting them. Kind of pathetic of them, but eh.

    Of course, if I have reason not to, such as I believe them to be unintelligent and not worth my time, I will of course deny it.

    Overall, it doesn't play a large roll in my time here. Friends lists are friends lists on forums is the way I've come to know it.
     
    If someone sends me a friend request before communicating or socializing with me in any way, I decline it right way and promptly ignore whoever sent it.
