Okay, not even sure why this happened, but here goes...?

If you recieve an e mail saying someone has added you as a contact, but aren't able to add them, would you go ahead and block them? Would it lead you to believe they were following you if they don't allow email or im? I'm curious because the person has a ton of contacts, and answers and questions that seem legit. Just seems odd to me.

Update:

Jerry B, I appreciate your answer. You already have 5 thumbs up with the 10 points you'll be getting as well as your 2 points for answering, you can go ahead and start celebrating...lol.

Thanks, I really wasn't sure if it was normal or if I should worry.

    I get that all the time -- some random person has added himself or herself as one of my contacts. I think it just means they liked the way you answered a question. And no, I wouldn't worry about being stalked.

    I get requests to be added all the time. I certainly don't mind if people like what I have to say, or if they don't and just want to argue. I rarely add people, as I don't really pay much attention to if I'm responding to the same people over and over. It's just personal choice, nothing negative against anyone at all.
