Re: Can someone explain the Friends deal???

Hey Joe. Pulled this from the Sticky.


Hello Maters!

We have some new features that have been added to our site. Here is a list of what you can now do as members:

Reciprocal Friendships Between Users
As part of our new social networking system, users can now request that people on their buddy list confirm their friendship, after which time a person's list of confirmed friends will be viewable to other users.

Virtual bonding???

I think it's the second half of the sentence.

after which time a person's list of confirmed friends will be viewable to other users.

Sounds like the Mater has become "MySpace"-ized.

It's different because you are not saying anything when adding a friend like you would in a PM. It is like myspace......Shannon even commented in the myspace thread in the lounge that we have the same thing going on here.
