(lowercase a please), but you can call him Al.

Paul, I thought the Friends list was sacrosanct and could only be accessed by those on that list? At least I was under the impression it was but it seems that it isn't so.

As per the same a couple of weeks back, I received the following a short while ago:

Instead of the normal flashing green Invite, this one is a pinky orange.

Naturally, the offer was declined but it got me wondering that if this gentleman has hacked the friends/invite system, what happens when this hack gets around and then everyone gets bombed by constant invites from all and sundry. The Friends list will become virtually unworkable. I don't know about Hugo Boss but it just smells fishy to me.

What do you think? Am I making a mountain out of a molehill or is it more a storm in a perfume bottle?

Quite simple:

Look which kind of invite it is and which connection to your friends list it might have.

BTW: I'm not exclusive in knowledge about this site.

On the darker side: This advice is a freebee. If you call the doctor again, by his name, brainz will charge you. :P

It was a CC Invite lol and nothing to do with hacking, spy's or the Profumo affair...

Hugo Boss has lost it's class....and the aftershave has gone rotten,,,,

Wouldn't have the first clue about looking for the kind of invite and which connection. it can stay in the basement along with all the other inponderables of this site. Need to know basis.

Mmmmmm........Dang, thought I was onto a major WGT crisis for a moment.

So it's just spam and he can have the normal go forth and multiply answer.

Got some Hugo Boss in the bathroom cabinet that's been there for years but as I'm just a common or garden cockney, it'll do for me.

So are you imtimating Paul's game is not what it was Alan? Fancy a round Paul? I'll give you a few tips and bring you down to my level.

You know better than be fooled by averages Paul. Add 5 or 6 to that and it might be more realistic. I'm just fearful the way my ave is dropping I might get demoted to TL any time soon and haven't the tools to back it up. Still, at least I'll be able to give Colin a good game.
