    OK, I feel old here. I have seen the new "friends" thing here on the HAMB compared to "friends" on MySpace and that still doesn't help me. I don't go to MySpace, let alone have a Myspace account, so I don't get it.

    What benefit is there to having people in your "friends" list? Is there a real benefit or just bragging rights as to how many people are in your stable?

    Please help a confused old man. :D

    What would you think if I sang out of tune
    Would you stand up and walk out on me
    Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
    and I'll try not to sing out of key

    Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
    Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
    Mm, Gonna try with a little help from my friends

    What do I do when my love is away
    Does it worry you to be alone
    How do you feel by the end of the day
    Are you sad because you're on your own

    No, I get by with a little help from my friends
    Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
    Mm,Gonna try with a little help from my friends

    Do you need anybody
    I need somebody to love
    Could it be anybody
    I want somebody to love

    Would you believe in a love at first sight
    Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time
    What do you see when you turn out the light
    I can't tell you, but I know it's mine

    Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
    Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
    Oh, Gonna try with a little help from my friends

    Do you need anybody
    I just need someone to love
    Could it be anybody
    I want somebody to love

    Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
    Mm, Gonna try with a little help from my friends
    Oh, I get high with a little help from my friends
    Yes, I get by with a little help from my friends,
    with a little help from my friends

    I suppose it's just another way to interact and with people? It could also make it easy to keep track of the threads they make.

    Don't worry, KIRK!, I'll be your friend :p

    Frankly, I think the feature is a bit juvenile... and silly... but it's necessary for a feature I have in mind for the future.

    For the time being, it's just way to show off I guess.

    Always thinkin' ahead, Ryan. That's why we love ya, man. Like the new look and features, kinda miss the vintage brown though. Oh, and my sig photo of the Wolfman at the DJ console fron American Grafitti got lost in the shuffle. Can I get it back or do I need to re-install it? Can't really remember how I did it. Thanks always, Don.:)

    Aha. Secret agendas. I'm for it then.

    I have people sending me requests and I'm flattered, I just didn't know what the hell I was agreeing to.

    You are agreeing to to do "secret things" in the future with your newly aquired friends.

    I think it's funny how after you arrange said friendship, you then get the option to 'break friendship'. Is that like breaking up or worse a divorce?

    One of the many nuances of the new HAMB. So far it's all good.

    I think its easier to send someone a PM , rather than looking through the search feature to find them. I do like the feature of adding photos in your profile.

    "Friends"?? "Interact" with "people"?? I'm a HOTRODDER. I interact with pieces of METAL. If I sign them up, do I have to lend them my tools?!??

    I guess it could be used to keep track of those that normally have something interesting to talk about rather then ********. I know I always go back to Scootermcrad's as well as a few other's post to see what threads they had started since the last time I logged on. Oh, and I strive to be the most popular when the HAMB yearbook comes out!

    So, if I add someone to my Friends List, does it follow that I am added to theirs?
