Ok I got a friendship request today and I followed the link to that part of the site and I could not seem to say ok to the request, the little dot was in the ok spot and then I would try to save changes and then I would try this, and then that, then I was screwing around and I think I might have sent a request to everyone on the site!:one_eye: So anybody know the trick, if this was a Johnson or a merc I could make it work but this site gets the best of me from time to time.
Sorry for posting this over here but I was talking to the person who sent me the request over here so I thought he knows how to use it maybe he will chime in.

What is the difference between a friend and a contact?

A friendship is a mutual, two-way relationship between two users. It is initiated by one user and accepted by the other.

A contact is a one-way friendship. This could be where the other person does not accept the friendship, a friendship request is pending, or you do not wish to be friends at this time but want to show them as a contact only.

Where is list of friends and contacts displayed?

Your friends and contacts are displayed on the 'Contacts and Friends' page in your User CP. Your friends are also displayed in your profile page.

How can I request a friend, accept a friend or break a friendship?

There are two ways to request a friendship with someone.

The easiest way is to view the profile page of the person you want to become friends with and click the 'Befriend' link.

The other way is to add the person to your contacts first. Then from your 'Contacts and Friends' page ask to be their friend by checking the box next to their name labelled 'Friend'. Next, save the page.

If you know the username of the person you want to be friends with you can send a friend request using the box provided and clicking 'Add Friend'.

To accept a friend, go to your 'Contacts and Friends' page. At the bottom of the page you will see a list of pending requests. Check the box for the requests you wish to accept then check the 'Accept' button and save the changes. If you do not wish to be friends then select 'Reject' instead.

Breaking a friendship can be done in three ways.

* From your 'Contacts and Friends' page, uncheck the box for friend for the particular person and save the changes. If you no longer wish them to be a contact either, uncheck both boxes for that person.
* In your 'Profile Page', click 'Friends' and then click 'Break Friendship' next to the user's name.
* In the other person's profile, click 'Friends' then find your username and click 'Break Friendship'.

I swear I tried to do just that but it seemed to nothing, or at least I think it did nothing, I guess maybe only the person who sent me the request might know for sure:16suspect

I know you would think I could handle something simple like this, I’m telling you it just would not do anything, maybe this is why I talk to boat motors?

I get you on my "friendship" thing too Joe. I go to it, press all kinds of buttons but not much happens. Read your instructions and am now more confused. ON and OFF is about my computer capabilities. Everything in between is pure luck.
