I just took a look and he contacted me with an InMail message rather than by asking to join my network as I had remembered. That would explain the different options (it's also a better way for recruiters to check for interest, IMO). I haven't received any invitations recently, so I don't know if they've added that option to invitations.

Haas Subject: RE: [TCP] Anyone use LinkedIn? Revisiting an invitation I received in mid-October, when I look at the invitation message, it offers me these options: Act on This Invitation [Accept] You and Xxxx will be connected on LinkedIn. [Decline] You'll be prompted to write a note to Xxxx. Xxxx won't be allowed to invite you again. [Decide later] This invitation will remain in your Received Invitations. No explanations or reminders will be sent. Accept or decline whenever you like. [Report abuse] Xxxx will be blocked from inviting you again, and Daniel's invitations will be reviewed to make sure the User Agreement has not been violated. I had clicked "Decide later" so as not to just block him per the description on "Decline"> I don't have any fresher ones that that, so maybe the info they send has changed. --Guy K.
