What's the proper Facebook etiquette when you get a "friend request" from someone you barely know, don't really want to know better but it's someone who works in your same building and you happen to see and nod hello to maybe 2-3 times a month.



I got about 8 "friend requests" in the past week or so from people I would otherwise never associate with.







Yeah, I know - such earth-shattering decisions are just part of my everyday life. What can I say!

Just ignore it. If they ask you in person, say you reserve facebook friends for family members and close friends.

This.

Or click no.

If you're in a bad mood, "report as spam."

The stay as "pending" in my case. I have not ignored one because I am unsure how that is reported back to the requester.

I have a list of people that are 'restricted' can't see anything about me other than my profile pic, name and some basic crap.

I don't want anybody from work except for select few people who I actually hang out with.

a few from school, my cousin and my dad round it out.



I have 31 people on my list and I could care less about anybody else.



for those old classmates; I hated your ass back in 1984, why in God's name would I want to be your "friend" today?

for those co-workers; I hate your ass at work, why in God's name would I want to be your "friend" out of work?



ETA: I believe that the Ignore does nothing. they just see your name fall off the "pending" list. I ignore people all the time with a laugh and a click.

One thing I will not do is add my employer to Facebook and I have a limited number of friends who I work with.

Me, if it's hot chicks, it's spam. I usually get one friend request a week from some broad I've never known but has a real nice profile picture. Go to their page and every one of them has a link to a pay-for-porn site.

One of the first people to "friend request" me was a guy who works for me - and he's such a bullshitter.

I "ignore" requests all the time.

People can go fuck themselves.
