does the facebook friend tab to the left mean anything?

[bulgarianwolf911]

if it does then i have quite a few girls stalking me :-

there has to be some correlation to me because the people that show up on the list are people that i would assume would check my profile due to my relationship with them (ex'es, good friends, recently added hookups, etc)

[rolll]

wat?

[ChadDawson]

Nah bro its how active they are.

[Spor]

wat?

[bottlez]

not for you since you don't have friends.



forever alone.

[lordsess24]

I wonder this too. Has to be ppl who check your profile often or some shiz.

yeah for real because some of these people i NEVER check...but we may have hooked up at a party of something so it would make sense why they'd be on my list.

it seems to be a steady rotation too...never someone i havent talked to for a while unless they used to be a good friend

Pretty sure it's something to do with the people who view your profile the most or something.

[henkepenke]

It's the people you have interacted with recently/the most with, I'm pretty sure.

if it is then there are quite a few girls i need to be hitting up soon haha

Probably a mixture of both tbh because a lot of the ones on mine are old friends from school that I never have contact with anymore.

i think its a combo of both because some of the people on this list

my brother-obvious relation
my closest cousin- ditto
girl i met at a party- girls stalk facebooks
ex-ex'es always love to check up
random friend from hs-used to be close friends with
friends gf-good friend
random frat guy-one of my boys best friends

but i rarely ever post anything on their walls...nor do i profile creep all too often

It's random . It's just a list of friends that shows up in your profile.
You can edit it , so it shows the same people every time ( if you want some 'cool' people to show up always in your profile , and not nerds - the 200lb whale from hs ).

It definitely isn't random.

[tooothpick]

Not sure what tab is being referred to

You are both right , my bad. I just looked it up:

"How does Facebook decide which friends appear on my profile?

Friends who you publicly interact with the most appear first on your profile. Examples of public interactions include Wall posts, comments and mutually attended events — Facebook will never show friends based on whose profiles you choose to view or who you interact with over messages and chat."

Directly from facebook^^

[autrefois]

which tab are you all talking about? the one that shows who's online?

Also doesn't say won't show who chose to view YOUR profile..

[NovaBrah]

no, mine are completely random

He just means the box with your friends in your profile

i dont talk to half my friends on my profile friends list though...just pointing out

and me and that chick have NOTHING in common on facebook..nothing

[rando_commando]

Hm , kinda makes sense , cause some of the people that show up in mine , i don't even talk to , and i am sure i never check their profiles , nor common events etc. So , it must be something they did. OOOr , fb's sophisticated algorithm is : function : 'Rand ()'

[O.B.]

For me it's showing a couple of friends who I never spoke to on facebook and it misses some of the friends I talk most too.

[Thumper.]

Yes it does. It applies to everyone, so it wouldn't be based on who viewed your profile either.

No, it says it won't show you on theirs if they view yours and vice versa. Not that it won't show them on yours if they view it.

we need to prove this somehow


these threads keep popping up but nobody ever proves it

[rhunt1]

Whos online and recent activity. Both completely seperate. So it may be someone you used to/still do talk to or random ppl who are or were online.

Dont get too excited Romeo
