0 valerie Inshan Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 There is no global feature that I know for that. You have to decline friendship offers individually when you are being asked. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lucretia Brandenburg Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 If you feel awkward declining friend requests, I suggest saying something along the lines of "I'm sorry, I don't accept friend requests on such short acquaintance" or "I don't accept friend requests from strangers" Anyone who does not accept either of those answers is being pushy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ariel Vuissent Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 You can keep yourself on busy mode all the time, but that also means you won't get group notifcations or recieve any items you purchase while in busy mode, so it's a double-edged sword. There is no way to prevent people from asking to be your friend; that part's on their side. You can only individually decline any friendship offers. You could also put something in your profile about it, so anyone who bothers to read will see that you don't add friends. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lindal Kidd Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 You don't want any friends?? Well, the others have some great advice, but mine is more general. Second Life is a social medium (as well as being many other things). You can't take that social aspect out of SL, no matter how much of a grumpy old misanthrope you are. But you can have your very own personal virtual world, in which you are the only inhabitant and will never have to worry about interacting with others or their bothersome attempts to be friendly. Just download and install the open source virtual world software OpenSim on your computer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 valerie Inshan Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Yup. Looks like we have one misanthropist here.... Sounds weird, all of the others want friends so badly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ariel Vuissent Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Lol I guess some people just REALLY want to be left alone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Codewarrior Congrejo Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 just on a funny note: if you don't mind you can also change your display name to :donotwantfriends But even this does not prevent you from having some very optimistic persons still trying to add you and hoping to win you and your grumpy personality as a friend. As the others already stated, best is to decline the offers, or even go with Lindal's advice and create your very own local region on your computer with OpenSIM, there certainly no one will ever disturb you. ; ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
