Do you have friends?

[cdbMidland]

Just checking one of the forum members public profile and saw this message:

"________ has not made any friends yet"

Now, I'm sure this person has plenty of friends, but just thought that this message under the "friends" profile was quite humorous.

Would you be my friend Midland? I don't think I have any, lol,,, Lizzy

 

[Oldlthrneck]

I'll be your friend, girl.

 

[Oldlthrnecksgirl]

Woohooo I have one now,,, thank you kind Sir :-D

Sure, but to make sure your husband doesn't feel bad about this, I also added him. Now, let's see if we all get off the "friendsless" category.

Lizzy, at least he said he'd be your "friend, girl" - not your "girl, friend"! We'd have to worry bout ole Fred then!

LOL~! If you would have checked your profile you would have saw that I was already your friend before this fred guy volunteered! I made him a friend too

 

[Pulltab]

Hmmm, a week ago I added both of you but it doesn;s show up! I just tried again and it still doesn't show up, you must be blocking me LOL~ Honest I tried!

 

[Oldlthrnecksgirl]

Awww man, we would never block you or Deana, Tab... I will try and add you from my side,,, Lizzy

 

[cdbMidland]

Pulltab, I tried to add you, but you don't show up yet. Thanks Oldlthrneck and Oldlthrnecksgirl - you now show up.

Now that I have friends, what does this really mean???

Upon editing - Pulltab, you are now there. I didn't realize that I had to check an additional box.


Now that I am no longer without friends, I will still ask, what does this do for me.

 

[Oldlthrnecksgirl]

It makes us one of the cool kids Midland, lol.

Ok, so now I have found a practical application for it. If I wanted to find something that one of my friends wrote or if I wanted to send a private message, instead of going to the members list and searching through pages of "M's" as an example, I could go to "User CP", "friends and social contacts" and find the person very easily.

I am sure there are other uses that I haven't figured out,,, Lizzy

 

[Pulltab]

WOOOHOOOOO! I got friends now!

 

[htneighbors]

If nothing else...you can have peace in your heart knowing you DO have friends!
