Q) When I first joined Doodle Kisses, I got a lot of friend requests and accepted them all to be friendly, even if I didn't know the members. But now I've collected lots of friends and some of them are sending me emails constantly. How do I stop this?
Sincerely,
Friendly person who doesn't want SPAM
A) Dear Friendly Person, you are never under any obligation to accept friend requests and if you ever feel bombarded with repeated, unsolicited, messages from any member you can report the issue using the "report an issue" button at the very bottom of the screen (in the orange bar).
But your best bet is the following options:
1) You can always remove anyone from your friends list (which will prevent them from sending you private messages) by going to their profile page and under their profile photo (left side of their page) click "Remove as Friend." Unless you've accepted someone as your 'friend' that person can NOT send you private messages. Your 'friend' won't get any notification about this.
2) You can block messages from any member by going to their profile page and directly under the "Remove as Friend" option you can click on "Block Messages"
I just block all messages to my email. I don't need an email for every comment I write to someone and if I get comments from others, I can just check the comment wall on my page. My email would be overflowing too, and I don't even have that many friends! LOL
The only downside is you may not get DK updates on contests and such or other news pertaining to all members. Unless you know where to look on DK--in which case you can usually stay up to date pretty well if you want.
Also if there is a discussion you want to follow, you can click on "Follow" at the very bottom of the discussion and then when you're done and don't want updates anymore, just go back to the discussion and click "Stop Following" -- that way you can pick and choose.
I carefully choose which updates I get as I am here too often to be getting notifications on everything...so I totally understand!
A question I have Adina, sort of the same is............ I have tried inviting friends and am getting a message that I have 50 invites and can not accept any more. Now what??????
