Friends adding automatically?

[ScottyDoesKnow]

I just got a notification today that I am now friends with someone. No request for permission or anything. Is there a setting that controls whether friend requests are automatically approved?

 

Edit: just checked the forum settings and enabled the approval process. Was looking on the main site before.

Click on your name at the top of the forums and choose "my settings". In the "friends" category turn on "Allow me to approve members before they're added as a friend"

Thanks.

The option to approve people or not when they add you should be on by default.
