Can someone please explain .....

[vilia]

.... to this old codger the purpose of "friends"?

[antimony]

Rosey said the friends thing came bundled with the "groups" capability. There was some discussion floating around as to whether or not the friends listing should be removed from everyone's profile page. It doesn't really serve any purpose.

Thank you, Antimony!

It's one of those things that I dislike about tribe and myspace--collecting friends becomes some people's m.o. and then it feels like 7th grade all over again! But, hey, if it's on the board, then it's just something I wil have to accept.

Like, OMG, I'm so adding you to my friends....

*edited to add like, OMG*

If you piss me off, I can UN-friend you! Totally. Like, Tamrahennatx who? I so don't even know her.

Hey, on my 'account settings' it has one for getting an e-mail notification for a 'new crush alert.'

How does that work? So, if I suddenly develop an inconsolable crush on a fellow Bhuzzard, does the system just, like...know somehow?

Hey Lauren - that really cheered me up.
