I was wondering what excactly can a buddy list be good for because it seems kinda useless except for seeing if the people you trust are online.
I think it's a cool little feature but I was wondering if I could do more with it.

You can always walk with a dead squirrel in your mouth. That'll help you get eye contact.

This isn't something the mods can change, only the admins can change it. And the admins don't mod FanArt as much as the mods do.

Not on this forum.

Try to make friends, meet them, do things with them, help them, until you meet with them completely, then add him/her on your buddy list.

Wow. YOu're a failure. Cool.

On topic, I don't really use the buddy list on this forum, but I use it on other forums for whatever reason.

I havn't added anybody for a long time the only thing I use the list for is... well it's kind of a trust list for me I only have three people and I think one of them doesn't go to this site anymore.

Then look my previous post on how to make friends!

And if you want, add again yourself in your buddy list!

Or add the first member you see when you come again to this forum!
