"FRIEND or FOE" ~ do you bother & why?

Post by Poultryprincess » Sun Jun 05, 2016 5:09 pm

I noticed that if you look @ someone's profile, there is an option of adding them as a "Friend or Foe"
How many of you use this option?
WHY would you use this option?

I'm Guessing that if there is someone who regularly replies to Your post,
you have something in common....& you would Want to know if they post something.

Thoughts please?

I've used the foe tag at times on those I don't what to read /hear . Never used the friend tag . The foe can't pm you & you don't see their posts . Luck

I've never used the friend tag either - by default, you are all friends. I have on occasion but rarely used the foe tag, for the same reasons as Ross cited.

I don't use either, I just use my homemade filter. (I don't like, I don't read).

But with the that said, where is Erin and Bobbi these days? Maybe I'm foe for them? Or are they just busy living life.

I've never used friend or foe, consider everyone a friend, may disagree but still a friend.

Ross' description is bang on. The "friends" don't really do much. The only function I saw there was that if you hide your online status, your friends can still see you.

PMs and notifications and posts from foes are ignored in your view of the forum. That's really the main feature why I added it.

As to stats, there are 8 people who have a total of 24 friends.
0 foes.
