Proposal for a new FAQ for Friends & Security

Can I Add Someone on Another LiveJournal-type System to My Friend List?

Although LiveJournal and other LiveJournal (LJ)-type systems share similarities in application & source code, each system is a separate entity with its own set of users. If, on LiveJournal, you add an user with the same username as that of another LJ-type system, chances are you're adding someone that has no bearing to the user on the other system. There are cases where users obtained usernames that are identical among the LJ-type systems but the systems do not share any dedicated connection that automatically transfer data among each other.
