[TheFoX]

Depends on what sort of chances you are referring to?

Depends on what sort of chances you are referring to?

it can really be anything, chance to be friends, chance to give him access to the site he wanna get, chance to believe in what he says et cetera. Some people are let down so many times that they kinda lose their faith in humanity therefore avoiding possible friendships, this is why, they dont want to take chances with people. Actually what i really mean, are you biased? I mean do you approach people neutral or have some kinda bad experience thereby being prejudiced or something? Hope it is clear now.

yes.. very little things get to me. for example just the fact of a girl breaking up with me drives me nuts even if i don't care about her. But when im the one to break up with her first, i don't even think about her afterwards.

I don't know what kind of phsycological fuck up this is but i go nuts when people fuck me over, even just a little bit. The feeling of someone letting you down is horrible

Sometimes strangers are easier to deal with than friends or family, because friends and family have expectations.

As for handing out invites to my tracker, I have offered a few to a couple of strangers who I felt offered that little bit more than most of the strangers here.

What I would look for in an invitee is that something different. Anyone can beg for an invite, as most do, but some people just ooze that something a little bit special, and those people deserve the opportunity to demonstrate their dedication.

As with all things, first appearances often dictate how people perceive you, so if your a total knob, then people will see you that way, and no matter how hard you try to change that, that first appearance will follow you around forever.

[Skiz]

Yes.

This is a prime example of why.

I've given out three invites in about 2+ years.

j0hn to FTN.
Rafi to E****
bd to What.

I have no regrets about inviting any of them.

With people you take a chance every day , dropping your kids off at daycare, walking to school etc. I never had a problem meeting new friends or starting a new job , just be yourself I guess . Oh wait you mean invites ?


JK i'v never had a regret with all the invites I'v given because I never expected anything in return other than the person being a good sharing member .

[Zaxx]

I recently looked at my invite tree on ftn to see who I thought was one of my best invites had been banned...he was active, made hero rank, donated...guess ya never know.
Just hope it doesn't keep me from getting future invites.
