Pretty sure I’ve specified this already, but here goes:

If you haven’t made any effort to talk to me through either PM or wall, hell even story comments, I have no reason to accept your friend request. For all I know, you’re just a stranger. Maybe a silent reader. Maybe not even.

I really don’t care if you’ve been reading my stories since I first began writing “Monster” back in like 2011 or 2012. If we haven’t communicated enough for me to basically know you as a person, I’m not gonna accept your friend request. Sorry. I can give the people on my friends list a different set of privileges, and I’m not huge on letting a whole bunch of strangers get the same treatment as those who’ve respected my work and me as a person to try and get to know me.
