I've posted earlier in this topic (11th post in this topic), but I think I should state it clearer.
There are only two benefits about adding someone to your friend list.
1. You can access their profile by going to your profile and then clicking on their link.
2. You will know whenever the friend makes a new project (My Friends' Latest Projects).
That's it. Nothing big, just that. And the Scratch website only added the second feature at the end of May. They added it so there would be more meaning to being friends.
The term shouldn't even be 'friends'. You're not friends with someone; you get easy access to their profile and you can see their latest projects. Friendship should be (and only if two people are friends with each other) things like exclusive features (such as chat). Which is a pathetic idea.
People might only add you to their friend list so they can get easy access to your profile or so they can see your new projects. My advice: Ignore it.
I think this post was better then the other one.
