I've recently sent a couple of friend requests out as well as a message to a friend through Facebook (the message was to Dan) and didn't get any
responses.
I assumed that the Facebook members in question simply hadn't checked their accounts or in-boxes recently but then this morning I got an email for a friend request from someone I just happen to know; They had apparently made the request sometime yesterday.
What strikes me as peculiar is that when I logged into my Facebook account I see no notification anywhere that shows the friend request;
I looked high and low and then finally just did a search for the person who sent me the request;
It was on their Facebook profile page that I saw a flag which said "respond to friend request".
This seems pretty screwy to me as it would seem pretty logical that there ought to be some obvious notification on my own Facebook account page for any friend requests or messages.
The whole email notification thing seems pretty flawed to me since something like that could easily end up in my junk folder and then the person sending me the request could think I was ignoring them or that my account was somewhat inactive.
Is there something in my settings that I need to change so that I won't be missing out on messages and requests?
