Do you actually read people's profiles before FR them?

    I usually skim them....sometimes I come across one that is deep and motivating and inspiring and I'll read that from start to finish.

    With these baby blues, I rarely have to send FR. But when I do, it's because they're hot.

    Most probably do because I don't get many FRs.

    As for me, I do because I like to creepily quote them in my FR, paste their images and critique them and sometimes doctor up those images and save them to a separate file where I keep track whether they accepted or denied and then berate them with harassing PMs, overhead google map shots of their house, asking about all their kids by name, but for the most part I usually just quote Lionel Richie's "Hello" with a variety of GIFs.

    I came here to lead, not to read

    this is true. he's a giver. send a FR to drmerc. no message required. he will lead you thru your journey

    I can't count how many times he's held my hand

    You hand? Oh THAT"S what your calling it these days? :smokin:

    I have a big *kitten* thing on my profile in caps saying I am not accepting FR's. I still get about 8-10 per week. On other hand, its a lot less than it used to be so I guess some are reading and some aren't?

    I do read people's profiles, but I rarely send out friend requests.

    Mine says I have too many people on my list, but may make an exception depending on the message, and yet I still get piles of unmessaged FRs.

    I think some of that is because the mobile version doesn't let you see people's profiles... yeah that's my story.

    Oh I do, in case they say 'weight loss journey', 'Jesus' or 'inspirational Moms'....then it's no bueno. If the make a point of saying they're not going to help me then I'm happy!

    Always. I don't want to get involved with friend collecting or other MySpace nonsense.

    sometimes -

    If I actually FR someone its because we have mutual friends or I've seen them around the forums and we seem to have lots in common. I don't send out many- my FL is on the higher end as is

    the only reason I do is so I have ammo to send a sarcastic friend request.

    If I am sending a friend request - no. I always go off interaction on the boards, or other friend walls. And I always include messages so there is no need to read the rest.

    If someone is freind requesting me. Yes. ALWAYS. unless their FR message is amazing and then I just accept.

    I'm distracted by the bodily location of Mirey's tatoo...for a second there I was like "no way I'm looking at what I'm thinking looking at"

    anyway, carry on.

    meh...I haven't sent any FRs yet and haven't found any reason to not accept others' requests. If they bug, you can always remove. I don't do a whole lot on my message board anyway...the community forum is highly entertaining though...and I'm learning things.

    Yes.

    But it doesn't matter what they write. The pictures are much more important.

    I just don't friend request people and blank deny any request that doesn't include a message. Saves me a lot of trouble.
