Tell me about it, those new hopefuls are keen on using that friend request button without much prompting. You've got a great photo so theres all the prompting they need I guess haha
I'm always getting requests from SGs and I decline them. I don't have to friend them to look at their nudie pics. I'm not like OMG! AN SG WANTS TO FRIEND ME? Just because I get a request. I'd be more excited to talk to one, but I'm just as excited to talk to anybody else. I don't think you're elitist at all. I don't want people on my list who I've never talked to.
