I have a couple of friend requests out there, where the recipient cannot accept my request.

Are there any fixes for this?

Just that the system won't allow them to accept the request.
Seems to be sporadic.

My mom used to put a few bucks in my pockets so I could buy a friend if I got the chance.:-P jd

It appears to be periodic; it took me three tries to send a PM and three tries to accept your friend request. Persistence counts!

I've tried numerous times to accept and reject and even sent in a PM reporting it. I'm still getting the 1 Incoming Friend Request at the top right of the page no matter what I do.

I accepted just to see if it would work....it did...I got a friend....I got a friend!!!

It didn't at first...but....that was my own stupidity (I'm just kinda that way)....you do have to checkmark the avatar first in order to accept the request.

I do not see a friend request button. Probably why I have no friends
BTW, any friends I had in the past seem to be on perma ban

And I found the accept friend button...

What exactly is the purpose of "friending" someone on the forum? What does this allow or do for individuals? Just asking the question because I honestly don't know.

WILCO, I just checked my profile, and you are indeed still listed as my friend; My only friend.

I think this means that I'm allowed to borrow your chainsaw?? jd

My interpretation of the "Friends" list is it's just a social media thing.
A way of building street creds, amongst the group.
Shows others that you are socially active and at day's end, you're an okay guy.
The option to "Unfriend" is available, so that's a good thing.

Big picture, I'm here for a short period of time.
Would like people to know I existed before being taken out by a cartoon piano.:shock:

When you click on somebody's profile, there's an option to add them as a friend.
Proceed from there.
Thank you for joining my group. :)

I gladly accepted yours.

Now I'd like a list of all your tools in case I need to borrow some.
And a spare key for the bike. I might want to get drunk sometime and see how fast it will go.

I am in the dog house now!
Went and looked at the two wheel drive Russian made bike, told the wife I wanted one so I could take my German Shepard puppy for MC rides!
SHE got mad at me!!!!
You would think after thirty years of blissful marriage, she would understand my sense of humor, BUT NO!!!!!:kidding:

There is a dealership in Jacksonville FL. May take a ride one morning to look at them just for the heck of it. It would be a nice ride about two hours due south.

Tools are husky, old school craftsmen and some newer Harbor Freight stuff.
The bike will do 90 mph comfortably too.
Has crashbars for drinking.

Redhawk does have it correct that can be confusing. When you go to your friend request list you MUST click the checkbox on their avatar to select them and approve/deny them.

WILCO ,
I recieved and tried to accept your friend request ... but I'm not sure if I did it correctly ... I don't remember checking the avatar box ...
Did I do it right ... if not holler at me and I will try again , I will be honored to have you as a friend ... I'm just computer illiterate ... I can't even find my friend list again to look at it ...

UpDate : I must be learning something ... I found my friends folder in something called a controll panel and as near as I can tell I believe I got WILCO as a friend ...maybe !
If So ... that would be Awesome ! :drinks:
