I agree. I don't like the idea of someone adding another person to their friend's list without the other person's knowledge. Call me overly cautious, but I think that could invite the potential for people to stalk other people. While I've never had this happen to me personally, I had a very good friend in XI who couldn't get rid of a stalker, eventually leading to her changing servers.

Again, maybe I'm overly cautious, but then again I am a woman. lol
