Switched to friends only?

[martyfan.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I had to. I was being harassed by an idiot over on another community and didn't want him to follow me back to my own LJ and spam it. (See previous entry's comments for details.)

[whisper99.livejournal.com]

Ah! I see! Perfectly understandable!

[stephenie89.livejournal.com]

hey! i friended you because I absolutely love your icons and im a huge stargate fan so finding other fans is a lot of fun.

[martyfan.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm...okay, good enough for me. ;)

[stephenie89.livejournal.com]

thanks! :)

I found your LJ by clicking on several of my friends' friends pages, and we shared some friends so I added you...

Why You Should Add Me: Because, uh, I added you...?

[martyfan.livejournal.com]

Uh...you're already Friended, I thought. *scratches head*

Can I be your friend?

[sabre-sherwood.livejournal.com]

*big puppy eyes* Um, this seems strange....
"How you found my LJ" Okay...I found your LJ through the Daniel_Daily community.
"Give a valid reason why I should add you." Um...I love Stargate, I love stargate screencaptures/wallpapers/pretties, you seem to have many pretties on this LJ that relate to Stargate, I want to see the pretties.....um...am I doing this right? Is this how you "friend" someone??? I have no idea what I'm doing... *scratching head in corner and waiting for a reply*

Re: Can I be your friend?

[martyfan.livejournal.com]

I don't have tons of pretties, usually, but they do occasionally show up. Most of this is about what's going on in my life, though I try not to post unless it's something amusing, confusing, or annoying me. I post a fair bit of Stargate fanfic (I'm in a weekly challenge group, so at least one short fic per week), and sometimes fanart but not very often. If you're not interested in my life, and would rather read fic, I suggest friending my ael_muses account instead (I swear I will update it someday soon). If you'd rather know all my deep dark secrets, in addition to the shiny, I'd be glad to add you. ;) Just let me know.

I see by a visit to your LJ that you've had one for awhile, but rarely post, so I'll try to explain friending. When you friend somebody, you go into their user info and click on the first icon (the little blue guy with the plus sign), then follow the instructions if any. This lets them read your entries that you designate friends-only (which is an option every time you update), and lets you read their friends-only entries (but only if they friend you back, I think). All my entries are friends-locked, which is why you can only see this one entry out of 400+.

[sabre-sherwood.livejournal.com]

Gah! Sorry about that...
Okay, followed your instructions, to the best of my knowledge. I'm really sorry about my lack of LJ smarts, I'm trying to learn, its just taking time. LOTS of time. :b
I don't read much fanfic, (yet, I'm pretty sure I'll soon become a hopless addict) but I have looked at your other account. I would...like? to know all your deep dark secrets??? No, not really, but they won't bother me, and I promise not to blackmail you if you decide I'm worth the time to..."friend"? Sorry, very confusing. I am very interested in the "shiny"! And, you seem nice...this must be rather freaky, you don't have any idea who I am..............hm.......must now go read all the instructions on everything about/relating to LJ.
I've previously been too shy to friend anyone...so, sorry for using you as a guinea pig. You're probably really annoyed by now. Shutting up.
Thank you for you're patience.
Should I not have replied to your post? *scratches head again*
Shutting up. Really.

[martyfan.livejournal.com]

No, don't worry, I'm not annoyed. ;) Sometimes talking to total strangers is the only way to meet new people, so I've gotten over the slight weirdness. And if I ever did friend someone that tried to blackmail me, I could always unfriend them and then they couldn't see my entries anymore. So really, I'm not too worried about it.

Just for future reference, when replying to a comment, there's a little link in the comment's box that says "Reply" rather than "Post a comment" at the top of bottom, since that just adds it to the original post rather than the comment. It's not necessary if the comment is from the person who originally posted the message, but in some cases it might make more sense. (Like if thirty other people commented between those, so you'd have to scroll way down for the other part of the conversation.) Since this was not the case here, it's fine.

You are now friended. Enjoy. ;)

Kawooshes?

[fuhrling-seeker.livejournal.com]

I take it that that is supposed to be the Gate? Interesting all the same. Dunno why I signed this, have been reading your fanfic and I like it so, props for you . . . I guess?
Think your stuff is cool, although I am not going to request you for a friend until I at least talk/write(?) with you. Besides, it's kinda weird when someone friends you and you don't know them.
So, I guess I'll leave this with a "HI!" and leave it at that. Oh, and GREAT avie, totally awesome.

Re: Kawooshes?

[martyfan.livejournal.com]

Hi then, and thanks. ;)

Re: Kawooshes?

Hi, I found your lj through mutal lj friends. I love Stargate, saw a post you made regarding Uninvited on someones lj and am enjoying season 10 as well so I thought I'd come on over. The Daniel Jackson pretty is making me want to stay *g* check out my lj and friend me if you like what you see!

[martyfan.livejournal.com]

Sure, I'll Friend you. ;) Found me through moonshayde, I take it?

[thothscribe81.livejournal.com]

yep, and thanks!

[thothscribe81.livejournal.com]

Yep, thats who I found you through. Sorry I haven't replied in awhile. I got hit with some family/personal RL stuff. I should be back now though :)

[smudge-pot.livejournal.com]

I found you through a friend's friend page...and I think you should add me because I'm a BTTF fan as well :)

[martyfan.livejournal.com]

Hmm...okay, good enough I suppose. ;) Not much talk about BttF these days, but you never know.

[ruby-vibrations.livejournal.com]

hi, found you through a friend who has been displaying the "inspriration poster" style images...and they crack me the hell up!!! been looking for good sg icons and pics and the like and yeah...thusly...would love to be added ^_^ cheers!!!

[martyfan.livejournal.com]

I don't post much SG-1 icons or inspiration posters lately, but if you're interested in my random ramblings/whining, I'd be glad to add you. :P

[mirnell.livejournal.com]

I recently came across you motivational posters at shanks_daily, and saw that you had stated there were non-Daniel ones at your journal. I would love the chance to see them! I mainly post icons at my journal, with some random Navy stressing thrown in, but, I promise, there's not too much of that!

[martyfan.livejournal.com]

I posted those things quite a ways back, but you're welcome to dig for them if you'd like (try the fanart tag). (Sorry this took so long, but my life is busy like WHOA lately.)
