Its a Party on Soompi ~ Find Your Peeps
Wanna see which of your friends are on Soompi?
You can now search your email contact lists to see if any of your friends are here on Soompi and then add them as friends ~~ pretty cool, huh?
Follow the instructions here and go find your peeps!
UPDATE (10/20) - Valid points have been made on both sides of the argument, but in deference to those who want to keep their Soompi existence anonymous, an option to block people from being able to find you via the Friend Finder has been added to Settings -> Preferences, as well as being able to block specific people from following you (My Followers -> Block). We are doing our best to make Soompi fun & awesome for everyone, so please bear with us during our growing pains.
UPDATE: To be clear, Soompi is not DISCLOSING anyone's emails - your email must already in your friend's address book for this feature to work. If they do not have your email address already, you will not appear in the results.
In general, everyone should practice smart online safety behaviors here and everywhere else on the web. You can read more about top twelve ways to protect your online privacy here. Here at Soompi, we are much more aggressive about moderating our community from spammers, stalkers, and other annoying people than 99% of websites out there. Please remember that all the volunteer staff on Soompi works hard to keep the site a happy place. If you are concerned about privacy, please note that the #3 tip on that list (which everyone should know about since its just common sense) is "Keep a clean email address", aka a side email address.
Lastly, this feature is not a new internet invention that we created. Every single site with a community has it - we are just bringing Soompi up to speed with the rest of the world :) Thank you for your support ^^
