O.P. Huh?  Peculiar question about friends requests
I've been having this problem for a while now. Basically, what happens is that when someone adds me on MSN, no pop up window would show nor would a yellow bar. 've tested it myself by adding myself on another account, there's just no indication that someone requests to add me.

Any suggestions would be appreciated :P

Hi Nostrilrolls,

There seem to be no other recent reports about this as a bug. To me, a yellow bar that says "You have 1 invitation" displays on the bottom of the contact list. It may take a few minutes for it to load.. You also may want to check out your privacy settings.

I've noticed this problem myself, when "quickly" wanting to add a contact, I would add them and ask them to add me too, that usually would cause one another to appear in the Contact list within a few minutes, though sometimes the contact would still be "Offline" for a little while longer..

hmm. i thought the wlm team built this new version so it requires for both contacts to add eachother? (security reasons?)
I may be wrong, but i remember hearing about it.

Ahahaha I see. Well that's quite a hassle. Thanks for the notice though.
