I use MSN and log on as "offline" at first. Anybody who requests an add I do add, but if I can't figure out who it is by scanning forums n' such I just block them and they remain that way usually forever.

It's not a mean thing, I swear! I'm actually pretty shy with that stuff and I don't want to talk with someone I might not know very well :aimblush:. My weirdness is just a huge cover up for all the nerves and eyetwitches and occasional ulcers my shyness gives me.

Phew, anyway...That keeps me out of this situation.
