Comment to Allow Standard members to send Friend request to private profiles

Hi all!
We were considering that it is a fine way when the user with "Friends only" for "Who can see me" field doesn't have the "Friend request" button. But if he/she has the "Public" value for the "Who can contact me" field then other users may leave him the message via Messenger or Conversation apps and arrange about the friendship (or about the final ignore...).

  Hi @LoneTreeLeaf
  Yes, you understand correctly. If a member sets his privacy "Visible to: Friends" (other two possibilities are set to Public) then there is no posibility for members that are not "Friend" to send Friend request. And this is NOT OK by my opinion

  I agree, it just adds an extra layer of redundancy between users.

  Not only that....; The problem is that someone who just become a Member of UNA site and starts to explore it this new Member can't send Friend request to no one with privacy set to "Friends only" ....
  Now imagine that all users have set their settings to "Friends only"....., they will have a big problem finding out why they can not have any friends on the site....
