friends ?
What purpose does the friends function serve? Accepted the first couple friend requests and didn't notice any changes. Don't want to ignore them if there's a purpose or if it's considered rude.

They just show up in your profile. When I click on yours it shows hvaclover and lucky. Friends tend to be people who think similar to you or are people who request it as a way to say thanks sometimes.

I send friend requests to members that contribute on a regular basis as a "Thank You".
Other than that, I have no idea if there are any other reasons/perks.

So there isn't any kind of ranking bonus granted to people with more friends? I think I heard someone talking about that.
