people all around the world are mombers of facebook. so i am sure at least once u would have recieved a request from a person u dont even know, what do u do with those, here r ur options, 1) reject it. 2) let it be in ur requests area for ever. 3) accept it. 4) accept it go in to his/her profile see what kind of person he/she is then if u dont like what u c remove him/her. ok the problem with the 1st one is, u might know this person but not know him/her by the name on Fbook,. By doing the second one there is a chance u might remember who he/she is later and will be able to accept it later. Well by doing the 3rd thing that problem is not seen at all, but a whole new problem arises, it can be a bad whome person u give access to ur personal infomation. U can be impersinalized etc. Well that leaves us with the 4th one. This is what i do as far as i c it, it is flaw-less so tell me what u think about it.

I agree with the fourth option. It's what I usually do. I check first the person who added me up, see if I know him or her, and if not, then I decline their friend request.

I really hate it when people addd me without knowing me. It sort of puts me off. I mean y they add me is the real question . But then there was a friedn who suggested to leave the there hoping to get an answer from you. But I think its bad making someone wait on u for ever.

Well it depends.. I have LOTS of friends on facebook that I have added (for Mafia wars and other games) that I don't know personally. I get many friend requests a day from people I don't know - If we have mutual friends in common, then I will usually add them with out question. If it is someone who has requested me and no friends in common, (if they did not send a message with their request) I check to see what their interests are or their photos. to see if there is some reason ( a common interest perhaps) that this person is requesting my friendship. If i can not find one and their page doesn't give me enough info then I will deny them. I often get friend suggestions from some of my "friends" And I will still check them out first. And I will tell you that I have at least 4 of them still sitting in my pending area for months now for me to make that decision on whether to add them or not. One would think that once you reach 1400 friends you aren't so picky about who you add and who you don't -but I still am.. :-)

normally i dont accept those type of random requests. i use to see that his/her status first, then mutual friends too. then if i dont find any clue about his/her and s/he is newbie on facebook then i ignore him/her. thanks

Only if we both serve a purpose...such as requests for applications. Then, my new friend is relegated, probably much like myself, to a specific list on their facebook, in order to help remember. Every so often I'll purge a list. Occasionally readd people from other apps if they request it depending on whether or not I find a new app that holds my attention span long enough until the newness wears off.

never, on facebook and other social network site i've only true friends, pople that i know in the real life, my friends, or people i've met somtimes, or people that i know for years like my friend fofi, i've never seen her but i talk with her a lot of times in a week and i know her since the 2007 so i put her on my facebook friends. I don't accept request if people that i don't know or without a motivation.

I generally look at mutual friends and if I have some then I ask them who they are if I cant remember them. Generally if I don't have a mutual friend I would reject them because the chances of me knowing them are minimal. I know this is harsh but it is the bast way for me because I have so many people on there that to add people I don't know is a waste of time. I also have my profile set to private so that people can't view my profile without first adding me as a friend.
