I invite(in 360) friends but they do not receive

Question

I invite friends but they do not receive and vice versa .

Answer 1

This is happening to MANY people (including myself). I've had the problem for over a month actually. NOTE: The person that you send an invitation to must receive it at a Yahoo address, have a 360 space activated, and have their permissions set up to allow invitations to come from you.

This is likely a 360 glitch. Often Yahoo burps up messages and invitations that should have been received long ago. Problems receiving (and sending) invitations and messages have happened before. See http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-4D4zxsg6f... for more details on 360 glitches.

You will have to wait until this issue is "miraculously" solved by Yahoo (if it ever is). You can add people as Favorites instead (i.e. when using the "Add" link on 360 spaces, don't select the "Invite as a Friend" option on the invite), and then utilize what public modules/features they have available (and vice versa). See http://help.yahoo.com/l/ca/yahoo/360/fri... for more information on Favorites. Also, people are designated as "Favorites" until they accept an invitation that you send.

If you (or friends) actually do receive an invite, but the Accept or Deny buttons are missing or not working, then that qualifies as a glitch too. The invite messages should be left in the Inbox to see if the problem clears up eventually.

NOTE2: Y!360 is transitioning into a different social networking platform in the 2nd half of 2008. There has not been a more specific date announced on the blog yet. See http://blog.360.yahoo.com/product_360 for more details or click the "Yahoo! 360 News" link on the upper right of your 360 space. However, they are no longer fixing bugs related to Y!360, so there's no point in trying to contact them about it.
