Title: Some people just can't take a hint.
Post by: Big Frank on April 10, 2018, 06:45:57 PM
Like the title says, some people just can't take a hint. Today I rejected the 4th friend request from the same guy on another forum. I don't know who he is, but he can't be too bright, unless he likes being rejected every day. If he does, he has issues. Do the rest of you have to keep putting up with dimwits like that?

He's at it again. Being rejected once a day just wasn't enough for this guy. I got another friend request from him while I was watching TV. Maybe it's just a game to him. I'll reject him day and night for awhile if that's what he really wants. When I get tired of it I'll quit the forum. And I'll tell whoever is in charge why I quit too, if there is anyone in charge.

At this point I would suspect some sort of scam or a troller.

I just checked his profile and it says he's in Lincoln, CA. He has 299 friends. Maybe he just wants 1 more friend to make it an even 300.

I got a friend request from "leghold" Wednesday night or Thursday. I was working on my computer most of the night and day, and couldn't read my email. I expect I'll get more.

Rather than delete the request, can't you "ignore" it.  That way it's always pending and he can't ask for another.
