Facebook question (relating to the friends box)?

[rainbowssweet]

Considering there is a new profile layout for Facebook, the friends box appears on the left-hand side right? going downwards. However... I've noticed that the same variety of friends are ALWAYS the ones that show up on my profile in the friends box. I don't even view or speak to some of the people that always appear? Does this mean that they have viewed my profile recently or the most? Because I always seem to appear on my friends' boxes that I view quite regularly... What do you think? It seems a coincidence. And no... I have no settings that have made this occur.

The box shows the people online. If you don't want to see certain people there, I suggest making a new friends list, and keep that list offline in the chat.

You can make a new friends list from the chat, there is a button for Friends List in the upper left corner of the chat menu. Add the people you don't want to see, save, and then flip the switch off for that group in the chat menu.

No, its nothing like that.

According to Facebook:

“Friends who you publicly interact with the most appear first on your profile. Examples of public interactions include Wall posts, comments and mutually attended events — Facebook will never show friends based on whose profiles you choose to view or who you interact with over messages and chat.”
