"Do you have a boyfriend"?

Or is that me just being odd? I've now got a specific group at the bottom of my MSN list for folk who have randomly added me so that it doesn't interfere with my other groups.

I'm exactly the same. If they chat, seem nice and it's more than about 5 words in a month etc they get moved into a group. If they don't, they stay where they are and get deleted sooner or later.

Keeps my MSN list nice and tidy

I would guess "omg gurl on the intarweb"

[Haly]

Lol a mixture of the two usually
And quite often 'omg a girl on the intaweb that plays games ' And block

Unless I recognise the address then I don't allow people to add me to their contact list. I prefer to have people on my list who I actually speak to.

Never really been bothered by random adds as such but I adopt a similar policy. If the identity of the person is not clear from their username or address, I reject it unless the person identifies themselves by some other means.

So if you call yourself "I've got a stiffy" and your address is "randombloke@hotmail.com", don't bother to add me on MSN unless you e-mail me first

Same goes. I took my MSN address off of forums about a week after I decided to add it. The only exception is here. However, conversations seem to have dried up a bit (with a few exceptions). We need another smut-laden Saturday evening of MSN carnage.

Also, anyone with a MSN address or name containing profanities is automatically denied, no questions asked. Please don't take that as an insult - it's just that I value my job.

I'm free on Saturday night. And there will be beer and/or wine.

[Mark]

I'm not.

Out at meets next two weekends. One of them I seem to have ended up organising.

If anyone's down Reading way this Saturday afternoon then feel free and welcome. Note however that it's a geeks (i.e. DC fanatics) meet.

Thanks Rob - nice bit of detective work there.

I wondered why he might have been trying to add me but after doing a bit of research, he participated in a whisky thread "over there" which I participated in also - he may be looking to discuss whisky.
Daft sod might at least identify himself.

Thanks
