I didn't feel like logging in so I'll post my comment here: The whole idea behind a social network is that you can socially network... as such inviting your friends is a great approach. I use facebook and from time to time I do indeed invite my friends. The problem you are experiencing is abuse of the feature. You have entities outside of what you would call friends that are hitting you up for a connection. The solution to this really should be the opportunity to register your address with the social network such that you will no longer receive requests.
