    Friends

    I would like my Friends list back please. Is this possible?
    A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
    Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

      Perhaps my English is broken but for the life of me I can't connect "Friends" with "Subscribers" ?
      Thanks!

        Guess the forum software developer changed purpose of this function and migrated friends into subscribers. I can't remember for shure but I think friend requests needed to be accepted - guess that's not neccessary if somebody want to subscribe to another users activity. It's also possible that the "friend" feature was a modification and not featore of the forums core function. Unfortunately updating forums or switching to a different forum software usally means changes and sometimes a loss certain features if there is no modification for the current software available.

            On "My Profile" regardless of which tab you select, om the left hand side of the screen, below your screen name and status and above the "Edit Settings" button you will see "Subscribers" followed by a box with a number in it. Click the number to see the list. Actually is is still basically where it was before but is now called Subscribers instead of Friends.

                Slim I found it after kingarthur's post it's just named way differently.
                Normally I don't want subscribers just friends...sigh I guess that is new normality.
