Heres a feature that I really think would be nice to have on the site.

When someone’s profile is private, and you are not on their friends list, there is no way to message, and/or block them

My space has all that and the rest of the profile hidden when a profile is private. Its bothering me because, what if you’d like to get to know someone or ask them something or block them and you cant do it because their page is set to private.

If you want to get to know them you can request a friendship, but I know I never added anyone who only sent a friends request without telling me why. But they could never tell me why when they couldn’t get the little message thing

This is my dilemma

Also.

Is their a way to set your page so only logged in users can look at it?  I like my page public, but public to the folk of FeF, I like to know who’s looking at my page

Anyway thanks for listening.

Our RESPONSE:

1.  Currently NO UNREGISTERED visitor can access the BROWSE or GALLERY area to "snoop and view profiles. 

The only way for you to keep people from viewing your profile is by setting it to private.

2.  The best way to engage with a person whom you are looking to learn more about is to address them publicly in either the chatroom or in the forums or even the shoutbox. 

Then if you choose to - Request to be friends at that time.

What if someone gives a member a barrage of abuse simply because they were asked to not come into someone's page constantly without leaving a comment and then they block the person so they cannot respond, but are the abusers then still able to look at the person's page that they have been hassling?? If this is the case its a bit unfair and the hassled party has no way of protecting themselves from someone who is abusing them do they??

Many thanks.

Hello witch

The plus about this software is that you can set your profile to PRIVATE

If you are not comfortable with people looking at your profile repeatedly you are more than welcome to set your profile to private.

Then no one but friends are able to view your profile or message you.

If someone sees that your profile is private - they can - at that time - request to be a friend. At the time of the request you are interested in asking why they want to be friends with you - you are able to message them back and ask. And they will be able to reply at that time only.

No response gets no add......

Hope this guidance helps.

------------------

To all of our members with questions on this topic -

Also we suggest that if you notice that someone comes by your page at least once a day or so and never leaves a message...

Understand that if you have a public profile people are allowed to do this and are not obligated to write a message at all.

However if you are curious as to why they are repeatedly visiting and not writing anything - at that time you can contact them through a PRIVATE message and ask them simple questions such as.

"Hey I noticed you have visited my page a lot - just curious why you haven't commented or said hello"

If the person does not respond to you or responds rudely - the situation is over - not to be further inflamed. Just be the bigger person and walk away - leave the person to their lives - try not to allow your life to be intertwined with theirs.

Being friendly is part of being on a community site. If you are not a social butterfly perhaps you should consider a private page setting.


Hope this advice helps you all with future interactions online.
