Can you make an anti-friends list petition? I'm in the Anti-friends List petition..
If someone was excluded, or didn't see their name, they would feel bad.. Plus, to have online friends who you've only chatted on the net a couple of times is pretty sad. Go out and socialise, there's no need to show off in an internet forum and also to make newbies look bad.
I really don't get the point of this.
It's like a "How popular am I?" list..
Nihilo, you need to consider the negative effects as well as the good effects of your so propose friends list. Pet really puts an awful lot of effort into this site, he's not a magic practitioner, he's a programmer, he's only doing this for us, it took him a while to get the coding for the chatter to be done, what use will this friends list be? There's a "Who's Online" bit where you can type in your friend's username..
Anyway, unless it's a "Private" list where no-one but you can see, I disagree with this proposed public friends list.
PM me if you are proposing a private friends list for your own reference though, my argument is based on a public friends list..
Suggestion: Wouldn't you prefer a contact list instead if it was to be a private friends list "For mailing"?
Profiles have a lot of volume, you don't need to shove songs or poems on, they're just a brief description of yourself.
Not for it.This is not site for making friends and social things but for learning and sharing about magick.If anyone feels someone should know something(how old,what or how long is he practicing) he/she can write it in her/his profile.
I am with Forgotten and Sir_Prize on this one...why would one want to have a list of "friends" on a website? It is somewhat sad. Consider the effects of exclusion and such like...it IS a popularity contest and it is wrong. I'm all for improving the site, but not turning it into a teen socialising network.
I do agree with some that it is a tough job to keep up with new things on a website.I think that PET has done a wonderful job on this site(that's why i`m here) and should be commended for his hard work.I`m all for improvements and i do see how it can be quite a nuisance for some.
But, i`m for it.
count me in.
I was just thinking that and then i found your post. lol
I think that would be awesome to have.
If we can just personalize our own profiles would be nice. :)
This is not Myspace, a profile is a short description, not your life story, it's also not a Blog.
There's blogspot.com for blogs.
For socialising, there's these "GREAT" sites..
