I agree 100%. I get so tired of the jerky come-ons and turn-offs of some Internet marketers that treat social networks like some kind of meat market for their triple wingy-dingy glow-in-the-dark widget with a turbo-charged blow torch add-on. Look, if I wanted your product I'd be looking for you. I've started ignoring friends requests from people who look like they're just trying to find another way to attack me with their ads. And if I add a friend and they send me more than one offer per week for three weeks in a row then I drop them. I'm not playing games. I'm there to network, not exchange elevator pitches and TV commercials masquerading as business cards. If your profile doesn't tell me that you have an interest in what I'm there to network for then you won't be added to my friends list. Don't waste my time and I won't waste yours. Excellent post!
