Sooo...Question.

What changes when one becomes friends with someone on AFF. What new privileges become available? Is it just there to say "Nyah nyah na boo boo I've got more friends than you-ou!" or is there something I'm missing?

Re: Sooo...Question.

I don't look at it that way.

That would be insulting to me if I asked to befriend somebody simply because I like them and they think I am indiscriminate in my friendship requests.

Heh heh. I didn't really mean that, I was just being eh...I dunno the word. Sarcastically stuck up maybe? I'm just wondering what purpose does a "friendship" serve on here, other than being friends? Are we able to do anything different now?
Oh by the way, thanks for requesting, new best buddy

Actually, I have made some very good friendships on these forums with several people. Even though we may never meet in person, I know that these people are living breathing human beings with emotions, strengths and frailties behind the 'puter screen ...just like me. One really great person that I think a whole lot of...I have personal email exchange and not just friendship on this board.

Some people I don't ask, even though I agree with them more than I disagree, is because I can feel the resentment and that they wish I was not here. I don't sweat the small stuff though.

He is asking what does Friending someone here accomplish? (I've often thought the same thing.) I have quite a few "friends" in the boards status sense but I am not sure what it means, if anything.

eye yi yi!!!! That word should be discriminate. Typing error. Gonna have to change it.

If I were indiscriminate, then all 3000 people, more or less would be befriended in my list. Eek. Gotta go change that word.



Heh! I cannot edit now. The edit button disappeared before I was able to change it. Oh well. Hope some people knew what i was trying to convey.
