What's the problem? I took a while to get used to it myself so maybe I can help?

PS Nice pic of Buffy

Thanks about the pic of Buffy.


The problem with FB is it seems to think just because I've friended
someone I should be also be friends with every else they know. Not
necessarily! After I reactivated my account a woman on the RPCA
Facebook group complained about being asked to friend people I'd listed
10 years ago. Don't worry about it, they're people I used to work with.
They wouldn't know you from Adam, either. LOL


Also, I've got notifications turned OFF, yet I still get notified if
someone changes their status. Facebook is just annoying.

I don't know why that woman had all those requests. If she's going through
each and every suggestion they give you then I think she must bored. I
really can't imagine what she's doing and why. Let alone why she's
complaining, you coming into the facebook group is no different to when
she or I did. I didn't see these 'asked to friend' requests. I only check
on the the individual requests where people have personally asked if I
want to friend them. I only accept those I want and delete all others
(sometimes that can be very therapeutic if that person is not nice). I
don't get many requests as I'm mainly friends with people I want, although
occasionally there's a nice surprise. Hang on in there but keep up with
the usenet group too, as I do.

Thanks, Judith. I wondered why she brought it up. I don't expect her
to know who Jodi Incardona is! I'll wait a while before deactivating
the account. Maybe it will grow on me.
