I would like to be on more FO lists, and I've been told they would add me, but

they can't because of the limit. There are times I only get added because someone leaves the board. I think we've had plenty of time to see that 80 isn't enough and increasing it to, let's say 100, wouldn't really change the dynamic on your side of the argument, but would make a world of difference for many that are at the limit.

The limit should be increased slowly, say, 5 each year

I've seen compelling arguments for too low, too high, and just right.

You understand the reason why setting a number and leaving it can be hard for

At a certain point, probably far below 80, it's no longer a "friends" list.

El Jefe

Really? Not that the amount of FB friends is the real amount someone really has

Jericho

Judging by the sheer amount of queries I've seen about whether to add someone...

Interesting that this was discussed at length today at the CB lunch.

Exactly this. I also appreciate the analogy of FO and courting some fly honeys

Or perhaps that's just a good excuse not to add you?

I guess, but I've been added by most that have told me that. I am not at my FO

That's why I think a slow increase allows Jefe to keep FO under control while
