What is Ning? How to use Ning? Ning friend invites!

How Ning works. On the Ning groups they all linked to one another. If accept friend on one group they will show up on all of your groups if they are a member of that group. When you send out an invite from one ning group it will go out to ALL friends list if you chose that option. With several hundred friends I just choose all. If people don't want to get invites they can remove you as a friend or block messages from you. Also if they go to ning.com and log in and go to settings you can control all your emails. Plus all invites have a link to control your emails.

Now for my gripe. If you get an invite and don't want please go to my page and remove me as a friend. I don't want to have to remember who wants invites and who does not. Or you can tell me and I will remove you as a friend.

I do not think is right for a person who has asked you to be a friend and you accept and then they get an invite from another group from you and they go to moderator and complain you are spamming them and want you kicked out of group and then moderator sending a nasty message to you about spammming and ban you from group. It is not spam if you are on their friend list and have you setting set to accept the messages!!!!!!!!!!!

This is really bothering me and it should not I guess but I don't like being treated like some kind of criminal and being told they are going to contact other ning groups and have me banned.

I get numerous invites everyday form other groups. That is how ning works. I like the invites so I can see what all is out there. Some I join others I do not.

So PLEASE PLEASE if you don't want invites from other groups set up your settitngs not to recieve them or block messages from me or remove me as a friened. I don't want to remember who wants invites ad who does not. If I did try to remember I will probalby forget to uncheck them and then have someone mad at me.

This is one of the invites I sent out on July 12 2009. As you can see at top says invitations @ whatever ning group name is. Then it give description of the group. At the bottom has a link to control your email. It is not hard at all to click that link and set up your email settings at ning.

This page has some instructions on setting your settings.

This is closer view fo your email settings. You notice at top says you have full control over your emails. (The sender does not have control over your settings.) Also says over all social networks on Ning. The very first choice is - Invitations to Join Social Networks. If you do not want invitations just click NO. Simple??? Yes! Don't forget to click SAVE.
