When I try to invite my Yahoo Contacts as Yahoo 360 friends, it says "Not Accepting Invites". Why?

Question

The FAQ says my contacts should appear on the list, but they don't.

Answer 1

They probably don't want invites! Ask them, it could be a mistake. Email them and see if they can invite you!

Answer 2

Unless you absolutely know for sure that at least one of your contacts has activated a 360 page (they actually have to go through the process, it's not automatic like other Yahoo services) AND have invitations enabled for "Everyone in 360" or a category that includes you, then it may not be a glitch. Plus, the invitation only applies to people with Yahoo addresses.

So, if the above isn't the case, then you will get the "not accepting invites at this time" message for all those contacts. I would not chalk it up to a 360 glitch without checking all that out.

NOTE: The Y!360 team is no longer addressing bug reports, as it prepares to launch a new social-networking system. See http://blog.360.yahoo.com/product_360 for more details. The 360 team blog is also accessible via the "Yahoo! 360 News" link in the upper right corner of your 360 space.
