Can't accept friend request

[Sharon in Austin]

I must be an idiot. How do I accept a friend request? I have the "Accept selected friend requests" clicked on, and then click on "Save changes," and the little wheel swirls, and... nothing changes, the friend notification is still up. What am I doing wrong?

Also, an etiquette question, never having before been on FaceTube or WebBook or whatever ... am I now supposed to send a friend request to the same person? Or is it automatically reciprocated? Or what? I don't want to be stand-offish or rude. And what does having a friend mean, anyhow? I don't mean that as a deep moral question. :001_smile:

When facebook made recent changes, I found that I couldn't accept friend requests or reply to posts on the wall. Somehow it changed all my settings. I was using Firefox and found that when I switched to Internet explorer, those features worked again.

Since they sent you a friend request, once you accept, you are all set!

Thanks. I should have been more specific: the friend request is on the WTM forum here. I was just mentioning FaceFriendBookTube as an example of other interweb things I don't understand fully.

Ha, figured it out. There was a different thing I was supposed to click on.

It means you have to support that person through thick and thin :D

Be afraid. Be very afraid :lol:

Your friend,
