Friends?

Mornin, All, from a VERY sunny East Anglia. I’ve just received a friending request, and I have no idea how to go about accepting it - so how, please?

tac, more puzzled than usual.

how?

buy some beers, sit down with that guy - and don’t stop, untill you know, what names to call him.

oh! you mean the cyborg way to be friends?

go, ask Greg, or any other computer savy young man…

Thanks, Korm. V. useful. In a friendly way…(http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif)

Tac …I’m very surprised that you do not have any friends … (http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-yell.gif)

I thought we were all friends.

my profile… (menu at top)

then select “friends” from the tabs in the next page…

no wonder you don’t have any friends ha ha! (you have to accept them)

TAC, making a post like that is like leaning into a left hook… you know all of us will be ribbing you for a while (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-smile.gif)

Wow, I tried that and I have a Friend! Amazing.

I have a whole bunch of friends out there. Just that the request to confirm the latest one kinda threw me.

Here is the msg -

*** Do not reply to this message ***

Thanks!

The top line says ‘Do not reply to this message’, and two lines later it says ‘Please click the following link to sign in and confirm this friendship request’.

So which is it?

I never figured out what use “friending” someone here on LSC is, since it does nothing. “Friendship” doesn’t even grant permission to view his profile.

Got fourteen friends, me.

Says so, right there.

Maybe you are supposed to reject him tac! Just kidding. You won’t be answering to the message you got but the one that you are clicking on. Technically it is a different message.

Ah. Right.

Thanks, Doug.

I have been known to be in low places!

Uhh… clicking the link is not a reply… replying to the email does not click the link… one goes to email and one goes to a web site… (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)

I agree, it is kind of goofy…

I assumed it worked like the olden days!

Only if his profile is set up to be viewed by friends. Or it could be set up as private, in that case only Bob can see it.

I dunno, I thought we was all friends to some degree or an udder. Cept Rooster, who delights in being rude to me. I think it could be because he is very insecure about something, but I can’t prove it.

I have 2 friends, they are very special to me…wait while I look to see who they are again.

Chris, I have dozens of friends, that is as long as I’m buyin’

Ya never can tell, turns out instead of covering my back, he was coveting my wallet!

He did enjoy cleaning my guns after we went out shootin’ and being fearless tunnel rats tho’
