I don't mind meeting new people and having a little innocent fun here, but some of my interactions have been a little weird. As a newb, :\ I feel we should entertain addressing friend requests and private messaging etiquette. I will throw the first pitch... If you send a FR and don't receive a response, take the hint one shouldn't follow up with a PM... Your turn.

    I never get any creepy PMs or weird friend requests. I think it's because I'm a cat and everyone knows cats don't tolerate that shiz.

    Edit: Damn, forgot I changed my profile pic. Now I just sound like a weirdo. My bad. So really, I still don't get weird requests, even though my profile pic is of my boobs. I'm a forum failure.

    Just because Something nice or flattering was directed at you on the threads Doesn't mean you can then respond with a Vulgar PM! :angry:

    doesn't mean it won't happen. I'm sure others can relate.

    I either ignore or mess with them a bit. Doesn't bother me any. I make lemon juice out of the lemons life throws me.

    I've gotten lots of awkward messages and odd friend requests. Just delete and move on.

    Noobs shouldn't be allowed to make threads. It just gets weird when they do. :ohwell:
    everyone was a noob at some point... last I checked freedom of speech was still an option. don't be offended... it's only a thread.

    The difference between "noob" and "newb".. Someone should explain this to a lot of people lol.

    I think his joke went over your head :(

    Unfortunately etiquette is a thing of the past. People have their precious computer screen to hide behind. :|

    Why hide? Who you been hiding from? What's your secret, huh??

    You're up to something, I just know it.

    Hmm. I guess I must have over reacted, so much to learn in the MFP universe. Although weirdness has seemed to dwindle. Time for a new topic.
