8 Silly Things People Do in Friendster

Friendster is a great website for connecting to old friends, colleagues, and even relatives in the internet. It is a site where you can show your personality in an interactive style. You can also add other users as friends and you can display them on your profile. And, you can also customize your profile and make it more interesting for friends to see.

As a user of a friendster account for more than a year now, I find some of my friends really taking friendster seriously and their activities online prove it. I listed eight ridiculous things they do in friendster.

1. Creating a new account even though the old account is not yet full.

   Friendster has just about two or three thousand friend storage capacity. It means you can only add more users if you haven't exceeded the maximum amount of friends.
   I noticed some of my buddies own two accounts in friendster, but when I saw their friends list I found barely a hundred friends for the old and the new account. So, what is the purpose of creating a new account when you haven't surpassed the limitation for your old account yet?

2. Creating multiple accounts

   Some people have so many friendster accounts, because they have so many friends overloading their friends list. They want to add more friends and they eventually end up creating a new account. Nothing is wrong with that. But, if you're creating another account and you're adding the same friends you have on your old one - you are just being stupid!

3. Adding Unknown Friends

   I'm with my pal one day, and we were logging in to friendster through his laptop. I was amazed to see how many friends he has on his account.
   I asked him, “Dude, do you know all these people?”
   “Uh, yeah . . . but maybe just the half of them . . . I think.” he replied.
   I tried not to laugh at my friend, but what he said is so illogical. Friendster is not an online contest of making the most friends in an account. There is no need to add strangers just to make you look like you're friendly and popular.

4. Posting senseless messages on the bulletin

   This is one of the most annoying things people do in Friendster. They make surveys without results and conclusions, and they post it endlessly on the bulletin. They also post messages that are completely absurd. Down here I listed three of the strangest questions they asked in a survey:
   
   • Does your dog eat vegetables?
   • What is the color of your shirt right now?
   • Do you think your neighbor has a crush on you?
   
   See how weird? Some of the questions have no significance at all.

5. Using a weird primary photo

   Okay, now this one takes the cake of being the funniest. When I was viewing my friends list, checking out my friends, I spot some people use a cartoon character for a primary photo and it was cool. Then, I saw one of my friends use a primary photo that was awfully weird. The picture featured my friend, his mouth is covered with duct tape and he was tied around a chair, half-naked. I called him to check if he was okay and he is. I viewed his photo again and I laugh my head off at the insane primary photo.

6. Using a celebrity's photo

   Someone was adding me to her list of friends. I didn't know who she was, and all I got is her primary photo to analyze whether to accept or decline the invitation. The primary photo was a local celebrity so I accepted the request. Then, I found out she was just my classmate back in high school. I thought I was adding a real celebrity on my account. But, it was okay. I did not regret adding her. Sometimes, using a primary photo that is not you is confusing to other people; they can mix you up with someone they know. Try to be yourself: add friends, do not con friends.

7. Using a weird username

   How are people going to know who they are adding as friends, when other users use symbols and expressions for their names?

8. Faking their age

   There are so many people doing this. They fake their age to appear younger to the person they want to meet in friendster. And, some kids fake their age to appear older when they are not even legally permitted to create their own account. Don't do this, just be honest. You are fooling others, and you are also fooling yourself.

And, that's it for now; there are just so many notable things people do especially in the internet. Try to observe and you will see how funny some activities are. Hope you enjoyed reading. 
