I've met a couple of people on wrongplanet that I would like to keep a correspondence with which is more than I ever had on myspace and I want to know is there like a top 8 friends thing to bookmark your buddies and if either of the people I sent private messages to via wrongplanet I am refering to you two so if you're interested you can just post me a private message

WP does not have any "friends" feature akin to what is found on social networking sites, and I do not believe the owners of the site are interested in adding that functionality. I keep correspondence with some people I've met on WP via Facebook or IM. That could be an option for you as well, assuming you feel comfortable giving that information out.

I must have been mistaken, for some reason I thought I remembered you having some objection to adding such features. I definitely agree that site performance is more important than new bells and whistles, though.

Need more bells & whistles! Bread & circuses!
We need more distractions and consolations!
