Friend Not On My Friend List : Othor Games

» Sat Jun 12, 2010 10:53 am

I recently added someone to my friend's list, but he doesn't show up on my friend's list. However, I show up on his friend's list. It also gives me the option to remove him as my friend on his profile, so I definitely know I've added him as a friend, it's just that he doesn't show up. I have another friend that does show up on my friend's list...so the friend's list thing worked for me before. Anyone have any idea how to fix this little bug? And, wow, I've never seen the word "friend" so much in one post.

Well, maybe it'll take a while for the servers to refresh or something. I don't think the "showing-on-the-list" part is the most important bit of a friendship though, (believe me I know all about friendship, I watch an entire TV show about it.) :whistling:

Anyway, I'm sure he'll understand.

It's been a whole day already. And it's way easier to view his profile and contact/talk to him if he's on my friend's list.

Yes, this problem has been occurring frequently since the dawn of humanity. I think we all know the drill - you think someone is your friend, you invite them over, then they don't show up. Classic catch-371263.572. Usually you can get them to actually act like real friends by buying them ice-cream. I mean, why do you think that silly cold gunk was invented in the first place?

I don't have any ice cream.

Have you tried removing and re-adding them? Sorry, that's the only thing I can think of atm.

Well, [censored].

Anyway, as others have suggested, another way of dealing with the situation is to just wait it out (until "the servers refresh", if you catch my drift). Interestingly though, that's exactly what ice-cream accomplishes, but it is like a catalyst of sorts for the process, making it happen much more quickly.

I'll try that.

You cannot re-add this friend for five minutes after removing them

I have to wait 5 minutes. :mellow:

I think it's a forum bug. I've seen the same thing here and on other boards using the same version of the software. "Fixed in the next release", with any luck...

I tried to re-add him, but now I'm not on his friend's list anymore and he's still not on my friend's list. Maybe I have to wait a while more.

Maybe it's fate's way of saying you aren't meant to be friends :cryvaultboy:

Okay, back to square 1. I am now on his friend's list, but he's not on mine.

Perhaps try making him add you rather than you adding him?

:lmao: Veeno, have you always been this...goofy? Either I'm just now noticing or something strange is happening. I wasn't gone for that long, was I?

He's been staring at his avatar for far too long. Now we know the ill-effects of watching cute French chicks dance without music on.

No ice cream, no friends. Sorry!

I think it's time you reevaluated your friendship. TAKE A HINT.

Perhaps your friends' list doesn't like you? Maybe you need to add your friends' list to your friends' list? That would be http://www.dominiek.eu/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/megamonalisa_recursion.jpg.

Yes I was and apparently you were.

Tried that too. All hope is lost. :sad:

Oh well...I guess I'll have to wait for a fix or something. :mellow:
