Why isn't there a function to turn these off? It seems like such a massively obvious benefit to the site, so why hasn't it been implemented? Will it ever be? It would certainly make people feel less bombarded. I'm amazed its not an option yet...thoughts?  |

Could you just not check the friend request page?
If you only ever want to initiate the invite then that would seem one way?

What if you never initiate friend requests, as in my case? You should at least have the option to switch friends requests off if you wish not to receive them. They are detrimental to the site in my opinion, especially as a single female often gets a large unsolicited amount each day. Shame you won't do it as a lot of people I've spoken to have given the thumbs up to it, (and ironically it plays a big part in why I'm closing my account.) oh well  |

think they're quite a key part of the site and the build up to a meet
you could just turn off notifications and ignore them, they won't pop up anywhere and you shouldn't notice them apart from the count on the 'my account' tab  |

are you suggesting that getting a friends invite out of the blue from a profile registered 100's miles away that bears no resemblence to the preferences stated on your profile , which has itself no pics showing in either public or private galleries ... is a flirtation that will entice you to meet??

we used to delete unwanted friend requests and winks but as soon as you do, they can re-request or re-wink
so we just leave them ignored so that they cannot be resent |

not sure about invites , but , am sure that even if undeleted , they can wink again after 30 days - would be good if Admin x could confirm/deny that |

I hadn't realised that failing that, just block them |

I don't see how its a problem really just don't take any notice of the friends invite section unless you've been chatting to someone and you're expecting one from them
To get disgruntled about ones that are out of your criteria or from 100s of miles aways suggests that you look and take notice of them,if you hate them that much they're easy to ignore  |

Personally I just delete random requests unless they persistently do it in which case I block them  |
