Please will everyone assume I am their friend? Or do I need to visit peeps and ask?
Am I told if I`m rejected?
We don't have these things on Dogsey.
I am pretending they arn't there so I don't have to worry about them

Re: A little puzzled by the Friends thing
We have the same thing on my breed specific forum, it took me ages to work out I never have found out how to put Personal Messages on it.I have told people that know me if I don't respond to something its because I have probably got it wrong.
Maybe we need a how to use feature for those of us who are technically challenged.
I like C&D's post, just assume we are all friends

Re: A little puzzled by the Friends thing
I think a 'friends' group comes into its own when we are a grown up forum and have thousands of members!Then, there will be the facility to send messages just to 'friends', or just allow'friends' to see picture galleries or blogs or whatever.
Yes - we are all friends now

Re: A little puzzled by the Friends thing
For those of you wondering, a pm or personal message has nothing to do with your profile page.If you are on our regular threads and want to pm someone, you click on the name next to that persons avatar and a menu comes down. If you click on the avatar it brings you directly to the persons profile page BUT if you are on a profile page yours or anyone elses, you can click on a persons avatar or name to bring you to that persons profile to answer on their page.
If you want to add someone to your list, just click on where it says 'user cp' and scroll down to contact and friends and go to the very bottom of the page and type in their name.
If you don't care for it, that's fine but when it goes live, I think you may enjoy. I agree it is meant for very large forums and that is what we are on the road to become.
We are all friends here and only answered some of the questions that might be out there.
Also if you get a bold notice on the top of your screen saying you have one or two messages, click on that and it will bring you to where your messages are on the forum . Maybe one is profile page and another to a pm.
The most confusion right now seems to be on how to answer a profile message. If you answer on your page, you are talking to yourself but what you need to do is right there on your page click on the avatar or name of the person you want to answer and that brings you to the person, you would like to reach.
