Can someone tell me please what the plus sign means that is next to your name? I don't seem to have one. :(

Thanks, Angie

    It meansssssss
    Hi Angie. The plus sign next to the name means that particular person is not in your friends list. If it has a minus, then they are in your friends list. If you want to add someone as a friend, just click on their name, a screen will come up asking if you want to add them as your friend, and, click on yes or add if you want to add them as a friend. I think that is how it works. You can try it with me if you want. And, I like your funny bear, or, I guess it is a bear. lol

    Question #2
    Okay, I actually knew the answer to that one -- but that then leads me to another, related question:

    If I put you in my friends list, or you put me in yours, what does that do? I guess I haven't figured out yet what the friends list is for.

    When I log on, both you and
    When I log on, both you and Noel have minus- signs...Noel was already added by me as a friend some time ago; if I no longer want her as a friend ( perish the thought!)I would click on her name and remove her from my personal list. You had a Plus+ sign, as you were still available to be added to my friends list. I added you and now you are also a minus-!

    On the other hand, as you
    On the other hand, as you can't be friends with yourself ( not in here, anyway! what's up with that???) we'll never know, because we won't see the plus or minus, will we???????

    My new friend
    See, what I *really* hope is that being officially documented as "friends" means that you have to start sending me presents....for the record, my favorite color is pink, and I love dark chocolate.

    Do you need my mailing address?

    I understand now, I think

    I've never understood
    I've never understood that "friend" thing. Since we all have the ability to send each other PMs (personal messages) by clicking on their "username" thing under their picture dealy at the left of the post ... I've never seen the point of the "friends" list.

    Can someone explain? I hope I haven't offended anyone by NOT adding them to my "friend" list ...

    hugs.

    Oh, very offended!
    Teena,

    I, for one, have been very offended that you haven't added me to your "friends" list -- so, as an apology, I think you and Claudia should BOTH send me presents (please see my preferences, above).

    ?
    The friend's list is confusing. I don't understand it either.

    Hmmmm
    Good point about the friends list. If I add you and you don't add me......well then I'm just going to go saulk in the corner because I feel rejected....
    But then if I just add "everybody" I will have the biggest friends list on the board and....click, click, click (hope I get to everyone!!)
