Can we add friends on this site?

[Jade1986]

It would be nice.

[jackthehat]

No.
But you can tell them about the site and they might like to join.

You don't need to add friends. We are here already. We are all your friends and hope it is reciprocal.

[Jade1986]

No I mean like within this community. We can't add friends or contacts like they do on Yahoo Answers?

[jackthehat]

No.

[Jade1986]

Like on Yahoo answers if you like certain peoples questions or whatnot you just add them, kind of like facebook.

[Jade1986]

Oh, oh well. :D

[boxtops]

No, you can't.

If you want to check the Site Rules, there is a link to them at the bottom of this page.

[jackthehat]

No.

[starone]

Don't even mention facebook. Although come to think of it there is a connection to facebook isn't there? I don't use it myself but perhaps someone else can help.

[boxtops]

^^ and this isn't like fb - most of us quite like the anonymity. There was a thread on here the other day asking if we would point our friends and family to this site - some of us felt that we say things on here quite openly because we ARE anonymous, which we might not express to our acquaintances!

[Jade1986]

@boxtops I didn't mean by adding friends and family, I'm talking about the site alone. No, external individuals, but my question has been answered. Thanks guys!

You can always 'mark as best answer' if you want to show special appreciation.

[askyourgran]

Does that work now Prudie?

[Prudie]

It does but I don't think the recipient can see it! I only realised because the Ed posted a couple of weeks ago which ABers had the most best answers against them. Think the current leader is Lie-in-king.

[Jade1986]

Sorry that last post was supposed to be for a question I was asking. I'll report it.

You can always send them an email with

http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk

which is a direct clickable link to answerbank. They can then join up and chinwag all they like.
