Good Morning,

I started on MFP in January and have been very happy with the results so far. I finally built up enough courage yesterday to start posting, but now I need to know is there some kind of secret code to get people to interact, friend request, etc? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Just keep posting. There are hundreds of threads being posted every hour, and tens of thousands of people using this site.

    Join a challenge group or start your own.

    Lingerie pics usually help.

    So many posts are made that posts are pushed down the page way too quickly and it is missed.
    You will see people 'bumping' posts so often to bring them up to the top. I'd read the rules on that tough as not to sure on stance.

    As Isang mentioned friends are a good method as well as your post comes across their news feed as well

    ^^^^ this.. I find that the more cleavage there is in your profile pic, the more interested I am in the topic. Actually the topic is irrelevant...as long as there is cleavage. Really its all about cleavage....

    I like to friend ppl with similiar goals, age, etc. When it comes to posting, the only I advice I can give is post in topics you find relevant to you so you can find ppl with similiairties, which is why I'd never post on a vegetarian forum b/c I LOVE BACON :heart:

    All you have to do is click on the person's icon. Then, click on "add as friend". People usually like it when you add a note to the friend request. :glasses:
