Yeah, friendships are the downfall of society.

Oh no..... With Twitter, Facebook and instagram, now I have to have friends on boards. Ffs, I actually only have 1 real friend in life. I don't know who the hell anyone else is.

I've seen it happen before on other sites, (sites without friends) a clique seems to form!

I have a collection of mannequins that I like to have tea parties with.

Don't mind me, I'm just feeling friendless at the moment..

Do you spike the teas to get your wicked way with them?!

I don't think it makes the site cliquey, it's just one of those features that doesn't have much point to it, I don't really bother with it.

Don't bother, they'll just tell you not to do it.

I have eight in my boards friend list. Have met several boards members in real life and would be friends with quite a few on Facebook.

Triple H, Shawn Michaels, X-Pac, all very cliquey.

Main reason to add friends on boards: So they don't appear on your boards love match come valentines day!

Keep your friends close and enemies closer!

It was a bigger thing a few years back. Not sure if people still befriend each other.
Many of mine are from meeting at various Beers etc.

Pretty sure we used to be friends... So, did I delete you or did you delete me?

it's a feature of vBulletin more than a feature of boards - the "friends" feature can be used as filter or restriction to allow trusted members to get in on the action.

1. Blogs can be restricted to friends+contacts only.

2. Receiving PM can be restricted to friends only.

3. Friends/Contacts can be synced up to face book, my space and other social networks

4. On extreme cases, threads can be restricted to friends only.

Don't be using the F word round these parts.

What? We're not friends? I've never deleted a friend so it was clearly you!

That would make for a nice quiet thread - I'm inclined to start a thread on Romanian traveller customs and make it "Friends only"

Friendships are for doctors, lawyers and people of that nature.
