I found that myLot friends list is arranged neither according to alphabetic order nor numberings. It’s also not in the light of ascending or descending orders of posts. What are your views and opinions?

I am not sure how they are arranged. But I do notice that old friends always in the first page and new friends in the last page. So I think they are arranged according to the order they are being added to the friend list.

I noticed it when I newly joined Mylot. And I still remember those friends avatar are listed in first in first out order. That's why I concluded that they are arranged according to chronology order. By the way, thanks for choosing me as the best response! Happy Myloting!

Hi dear cheongyc, thanks for your information and I believe in the same way that the avatars of our friends are arranged according to chronology order. So from the arranged lists we could find out our old friends or new friends easily, but I still find it is time consuming anyhow. I prefer the friends list to be arranged in alphabetical order, and this could facilitate us when searching our friends.

Now I also notice that new friends always in the last page and I do agree that they are arranged according to the order friends are being added to the friends list.

You are right subha, friends list is arranged in the order of time sequence. I believe there must be some technical reasons for mylot to arrange it in such a way. Anyhow it’s rather difficult to search them by their usernames. posting and take care.

Definitely by now you know,.. but i feel it as a pleasure to respond your topic.. by repeating what others have said.. " Hi, lkbooi.. the friends list are arranged.. according to date on which they are added as friends." It has nothing to do with the number of posts..or else with alphabetic order." Take care friend.

Hi saivenkaat, thanks for helping me to have this a year old discussion revived. Anyway I hope mylot could make a modification in the arrangement of the friends list. I like it to be arranged in alphabetical order, so we could find out anyone of our friends easily and conveniently by his username. posting and have a nice day.

Friends are not listed in any particular order. As you accept them, they become friends list.

Yeah ketybhagat, it’s fair that the latest should occupy the last space in the friends list. In this way we could trace the seniority of our friends in the list with respect to the sequence of time. posting and good luck.

I think they are arranged from old to new. I mean the very first friend you had are on the front page and as they continue to add up the latestnewest friend is in the bottom page. I am also confused like you. I think they should sort them alphabetically or whichever way but not the current arrangement.

You are right, I do notice that our newest friends are arranged at the last page of our mylot friends’ list. I appreciate most, those friends who are still active and still have frequent interaction even though they are in the first few pages. Of course I do welcome all active friends in the lists. I prefer the alphabetically way which I could find anyone out easier and more convenient.

They are in order that we add them. Of course, we would want to arrange our friends list the way we want and maybe group them but maybe that is not the priority of myLot right now. But maybe myLot would incorporate it in the coming years. We just have to suggest it to them. Have a nice day!

Yeah richiem, the mylot friends list is arranged in the order according to the time sequence we add them. The 15 oldest friends are always at the first page and the newest one is always on the last page. Anyway I hope mylot could improve the arrangement of the friends list so we could find out any friend easily by alphabetic order. posting and have a nice day.

I believe my friends are arranged in the order that they became my friends. The first friend I got is first, & the last friend I approved is last.

I do believe friends are arranged in the order according to the time we approved them as friends.

I saw another discussion where someone said that mylot have just started adding your friends to the bottom of the list as they join it which they thought was good. Personally it doesn't matter to me what order my friends are in.

Yeah, sometimes we may think that what order is immaterial. What bother us much is whether they respond our discussions or not lol:.

i think it ordered according to the time,your first added friend is on the first,and as you removed one friend then added again,he/she will be in the later place.once i removed a friend by mistake,then i add him again,he is now not at the first several places.

Your case showed evidence that friends list is arranged according to the time when friends are added.:)
