    I have had a few, i don't care. I already know they have their head where the sun don't shine, i don't want people like that on my friend's list.

    So... the only reason someone would reject a FR is because there's something wrong with them?

    Sounds legit.

    I understand some women don't accept men as friends that's cool.

    That's the only thing i get, how can someone judge determine anything about me without knowing me?
    A few caveats, they read my profile(if they did and don't want to be friends, i am cool with that), they seen me around on the forums and just don't like me, (i am cool with that too).

    If a girl sent me a FR and i didn't like her profile, i would accept her and tell her, "it looks like from your profile you're kind of ______________"

    Some person on the fourms i just don't like, if they sent me a FR, I'd just give them a fair chance.

    I didn't like jacwhite on the forums, but he sent me a FR and i consider him a good friend.

    The ethical thing to do is to give people a fair chance. If they don't do that, then... yes something is wrong with them.

    I think you're taking this a bit too seriously...

    The ethical thing to do... is to allow people to decide on their own by what criteria they choose to define their FL.

    So how does one know if their FR was rejected?

    How do you know that a FR gets rejected? Do you get a notification? Or do they tell you they are rejecting you?

    You get a red peg and you insert it into one of your battleships. If you get too many red pegs, the whole thing basically ****ing explodes.

    LOL

    It's the internet. Seriously? The ethical thing?


    Man, if only you took educating yourself about proper diet and nutrition as seriously as you take sending and receiving friend requests.

    No, there's no way to tell whether it was rejected or just allowed to sit in their queue because they feel bad about hitting the "decline" button.
    That's what i do.:ohwell:
    36 FR's with no message from people I never interacted with. I just let them sit there.

    I gave you a fair chance. You proved to be a creeper. And thats coming from ME.

    I'm pretty sure I've never had a FR rejected...but I have regretted accepting a few myself, lol. Those people were subsequently deleted when they stopped being active members. I liked having a "legit" excuse for deleting them so I didn't feel bad. :devil:

    So how does one know if their FR was rejected?

    You never can know for sure. Unless they tell you.

    But I think it's safe to assume after a couple days go by and they don't show up in your newsfeed.

    It gets better. Eventually it turns into one of those things you only remember when you have a little too much to drink and start looking back at your life..

    is there an MFP equivalent of late night drunk dialing?

    hmmmmm..................................

    It's called tinychat

    I will neither confirm nor deny my involvement in such activities...

    What is this tinychat thing you refer to?

    Never heard of it...

    *whistles*

    OK but please help me understand: lets say somebody came home from a night of drinking, totally smashed out of their brains, and while logging their shots, sent 50 FRs.

    Next day, they dont remember it and will never find out if they got rejected by anyone even if all 50 reject.

    Correct?

    yeah.. it's not unethical to reject someone, for ANY reason. We never fully know people's reasons anyway, and whatever they are, people are entitled to them.

    Correct.

    But after a few days, if they aren't showing up in your newsfeed, you can assume it was a "no."

    All of their battleships would explode simultaneously and it would probably kill them.

    I don't think I've ever really had a friend request rejected on here... Well, maybe. Women usually accept them (and usually send me some), but I think the guys are a little more hesitant. Understandable though. *shrugs* You'll get over it. Eventually. :/

    You're right, i know nothing about diet and nutrition.

    You think you would have lost your weight without MFP? You know there are rules and guidelines for proper etiquette on the forums, the TOS. Yet it's the internet.
    Lolololol. No clue what you're "trying" to say, but I did lose my weight without MFP.


    And thank you. I know I'm right.

    Oh, and I'm being completely cordial. I stated a fact.


    Facts are your friend, Pu. Embrace them.

    I think chest hair is sexy, that strip that runs from a mans chest down a nice belly....:tongue: Yours is nice too. Women are like men, we like a nice chest. I personally think both of you are sexy!

    Ok so there is one gal I think I sent an FR to, but I wasnt sure cuz I was kind of trying to make new friends at the time. I am just not sure if I sent her one and she rejected or if I never sent her an FR. I was not just sending them out, but like I said, I was in induction mode.

    So now I dont know if should resend and get rejected twice, if in fact she rejected me.

    Bummer

    it's not, i am judging by their behavior. If i get a FR, what do i have to go by, a picture? possibly a comment. (the comment can tell you something) which can get decline.

    Actions speak louder than words.
    How to read actions on the interwebs?
