Friend request - What is it for?
Could anyone explain what the friend request is for?

it just means your being noticed, its a friendly gesture, alot of our gurus automatically add people as they hit a certain skill level, go ahead and say yes if you want, it doesnt do any harm
It's just a welcoming gesture for many of us.
It also makes finding members' profile pages easy.
Even though we may never meet, personalites come through the computer, friednships can be formed. I notify those that I want to be friends with by sending a friend request. You will like the feature.
I asked the same question, back when first getting these, and got the same answers. Saying yes is no problem.
I came to this site for help and stayed here mostly for help surprisingly i found i am able to give advice occasionally that has been helpful and i always feel honoured and sometimes not worthy when i receive a friends request .I do feel like im part of a community and as someone recently told me when i was particularly fed up about a computer disaster that i am part of a family here ( insert smiley with a violin here!)
Thanks everyone for enlightening me about it. So far I have accepted every requests but did not really know about it.
They do say ," you can choose your friends but not your family" although this may be a contradiction of terms here
