Title: What Purpose(s) Does the 'Buddy List' Serve?
Post by: mythociate on January 12, 2014, 01:14:29 am: I know it 'lists all one's personal buddies on their own buddy/ignore-list' and 'gets oneself listed on the BUDDY'S personal buddy/ignore-list,' but shouldn't one's own buddy-list be VISIBLE to all of one's profile-visitors?

And are there any other 'perks' to having buddies on the list?

No? When you click to see my profile, you see no 'add to buddy list'-link? Maybe your account-settings don't allow a buddy list ... you might want to look at that ...

The only thing you could really use it for is to find certain members more easily to see what they post

You sure? Look on your profile, in the list of links that include 'edit profile' & 'account settings' etc. If you find it there & click on it, I think you'll see about as much as any of us non-admins know about it ...

What I ment was that I don't have anyone in my buddy list how do I get buddies in my list? When we have that does it mean we get to talk to individuals on Fusion Cash, and what are we allowed to share with our buddies?

Go to a member's 'profile' (clicking their picture or the little head-&-shoulders under their country-flag) & click their 'Add to Buddy List'-link.
