Here's another thing. Twice now people have said in their journals that they've made G+ accounts, and have listed their username. But when I do a search on that username, I get nothing. G+ offers to let me add the username I searched for (whom G+ thinks doesn't exist), but only if I put in their email address (which I don't know, in either case).

Maybe their system needs time to refresh. (Or maybe those people have banned me! /o\ Just kidding. I doubt it.)

Random, but possible. When I started playing around with my fannish G+ identity, it had created a "blocked" group, with 18 or 19 people in it that were all friends, people I absolutely would NOT have wanted blocked. I have no idea why or how; it was just there. If somebody wasn't paying attention, it's possible.

(this didn't happen with my real name identity.)

People who are blocked *can* add you, though. Which is weird and counterintuitive, but.

And I had several unexplained blocked people too. I don't even know who some of them *are*.
