?Do You E-Mail People First To Ask If You Can Be Their Contact & Vise Versa?!
Question: !?Do You E-Mail People First To Ask If You Can Be Their Contact & Vise Versa!?
I have started to do this, instead, of just putting them on my contact list!. I usually explain that I liked their questions or answers so that they can decide if they would like to or not!. Some people do not like it without their consent, and I have had some angry e-mails to prove it!. Are you doing the same!?Www@Enter-QA@Com

I'm glad you asked this because I didn't know the protocol of how this works!. I have been guilty of both!. I try add people I find interesting in areas of mutual interest!. Some times I wonder why some people want to add me though because I don't know their intentions!. However!. I have connected with some really nice people, and several that I feel like are like cyber friends!. I have learned from reading their questions and answers Some I stay in contact with, but I find it interesting to read serious intellectual questions, and immensely enjoy the cynicism and sarcasm of people who answer things that are very, very, funny IF people get serious answers to abused questions or vice versa!. So if I have offended anybody, I will take this opportunity to apologize for any inconvenience!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
yes, i expect people to add me only after sending an email, plus isnt it EXPECTED anyway!? some people i see have loads of contacts at level 1 or 2, they could be trolls, but even if they're not, what do you do having so many contacts at that early stage (unless you made a new one after getting suspended)!.!.!.
plus even though i clearly state in the "about me" that i expect an email before an add, some still dont do it, what do i make of this!? people find you interesting enough to add, but dont even care to read the "about me" part, thats enough for me to remove myself from their list without warning, i may have pissed some off, but my profile clearly states that, so i could care less!.!.!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

No ,but I did once recently because we both have twins and have things in common!. Either one of us can reject or ban the email or contact!. I had one contact I had to ban because she wasn't interested in me!. She was interested in trying to get the best answer and compete with me!. I thought this was terrible and banned her so she can't follow me on Yahoo Q&A!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
yep!.!.!.it's right in my profile!. There are people here that are contacts of my contacts that I don't just add!. People have a right to say who they want to be connected with on here, just as they do out in the real world, away from the computer!. I try to respect that!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I don't allow e-mail or IM i'm afraid!.!.!.!.because too many insults !.!.!.which makes me sad because I would love to talk to people on here !.!.!.!.so I let people add me and don't complain!.!.!.

If anyone wants to add me, they'd better!. I've had to deal with too many trolls for me to add first, ask questions later!. If someone adds me w/o permission or if I don't know them from a previous account, that's an automatic block!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
it's wild that people do it without asking i don't dare, but they do me all the time, it's flattering but at the same time annoying but hey what can i say!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I haven't added any in a while!. I would only bother to do that if it asked us to in their profile!. I prefer it myself!. I do think it's a good idea!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Ollie do that too!. Just incase the other person chooses to opt out in becoming my contact !. Ollie usually wait until someone wants to connect to Ollie!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I believe it is good Y!A,etiquette,to do this!.!.I also want the person to read my profile before they add me!.!.!.To see my age,marital status and interests!.!. Why add someone you are not compatible with!?!?Www@Enter-QA@Com
I have had some not nice people invade my contacts list, so I must ask for anyone to email me before adding me!. I am sorry it had to come to this!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
If there is a bio I don't email - but without a bio I can't tell their age or reality, so I have decided emailing is best!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Sort of, It depends because some people state in their profiles that as long as you're nice you may add them, therefore they have automatically gave us their permission!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I have never e mailed to ask, maybe I should, I always check anyone who connects to me if I like what I see I invite!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Yes , and I ask they do the same ! If they don't I block their azz!Www@Enter-QA@Com
