Adding Friends Trick + Question.

[Stupid Smurf]

I have an account approaching 500 friends (possibly today). I started the account with large invite sent out, the account got suspended for two days, but that did gain enough friends to get the ball rolling. Since then, I mostly ad people suggested by facebook.

Something I have noticed, I don't have the "Find Friends" tab. I don't recall if FB ever returned it after the suspension or not. Wasn't paying attention. My question, should I start a fresh account or shouldn't matter? I can still add friends with no issues.

The Trick:

You can still find friends and still look through the list of suggested friends if FB took away the tab:

facebookcom/find-friends/browser/

facebookcom/find-friends/

Just go to those when you are logged in to the account. FB has been allowing me to add 30+ friends at a time without warning me. These are friends who have 50+ friends in common. Some are up to 200+ now. I try people with few friends in common, then I get warned.

Anyone think I should just keep pushing or try to keep the account from getting the axe? Most people do accept the requests though lol.

Keep the account from getting the Axe! What is the outcome your trying to achieve? Sounds like a more targeted campaign?

I do that often but the people I add are all a part of the scene I'm looking for. I need a way to get friends via REGION / genre of music

It is funny you mention that, somehow the list I used, the result was all Madonna fans. And FB just kept suggesting more, so I might have at least 300 Madonna fans as friends and maybe about 100 Britney Spear fans. Something I'm working on could actually work with that niche too, when I have it finished. So got lucky there.

Find FB Events from the rough area and of that Genre of music, find the attending and get adding from there...

best way is to 5-10 any people..then send request to their frend,.. then fb automatically suggest you mutaul frends ..just add them they will accept you easily and fb dont ban you..

Umm... thanks, but that didn't seem to relate to my post?

I'm already at the stage where I can add people with mutual friends of 100+. Logging in, I can usually add 20 - 30 at a time (sometimes more, lol), then get 20 ads, and repeat a few times a day. The advice was good for someone just starting an account. I'm more curious if my account will eventually get banned, since FB removed my friend tab.

I think they just give you warnings. My account has been "warned" a few times as well and no termination yet.

Awesome. Besides the suspension for importing people, I haven't had any since. I just stop adding friends when it asks me if I know the person.

The best way is to find a fan page then hit the like button.. Add all of those people who are active on the page.

Same here. I found that when you are using a page as facebook, when you hit like to comments or replies, people tend to "like" the group page as well.

I do that often, it works great.

Haha.. so I log in to FB today and I got the warning about them getting reports I was adding people who weren't friends. Who flags someone as spam when they have 200+ friends in common? Just hit ignore!

Up to 627 friends now.
