Title: Buddy list?
Post by: plumseverywhere on January 11, 2013, 05:06:53 pm
Just wondering what the buddy list is/does?  If you click on someones profile, you have the option to add them to your buddy list but what differences do you see if they are buddy or not?

As far as I remember it was planned as a tool for folks to find someone to help out in times of need - or wasn't it? It' a long time ago that was mentioned...  :&>

You can set your preferences to only receive PMs from people on your buddy list. You can also see a list of your buddies to see who's online.


That's all it does by default... :)
