Do Lite buddies know they are lite? 

I'm new and so far I have only 3 buddies.  Two are personal friends and one is an acquaintance.  I hope to have other buddies in future, but I may not know them personally, and I'm not sure whether I want them all to be able to see all my information.

On the other hand, I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, so rather than that I'd make them all Lite.   If they don't know they are Lite,  then it doesn't matter if I make some Lite and others Full.

I dunno but as far as I can tell I can't even see if I am on someones list at all. I can't think of a way to even get that info.

Well I know when I look at my buddy list-on some of them I can see their WL, their Buddy List  and their Bookshelf.  On others I can 't see all of these things.  So I'm thinking that have it set to not show it to everyone on their buddy list.  It's been awhile since I looked at the settigns but I believe you can adjust what you show to whom.  I don't take offense if someone wants to block me from seeing their WL. It just means I won't post any books directly to them.  I don't really see the point of blockign that stuff from people. But some people don't want others to even see what books they have posted.

Mary my setting is to not show that info to anyone on my list or not so that still doesn't show if they have you on their list, just that their settings are on full security.
