    5000 per account except some cases where the account owner is a singer or someone important, but he does not want to open a page.

    They are right about it , no one can have more than 5000 real friends , they just do it for promoting their stuff.

    As far as I know, it is only limited to 5000 friends. But it's too much for an ordinary person. Maybe if you are a celebrity or famous icon. :)

    5000 is the maximum amount of friends that one is allowed to have linked ones account... and I agree that is a limited number, but I know that I will never reach that limit in my life time.

    Yes the maximum number any Facebook account can have as friends is 5000. Lots of people had issues talking about why these limitations exist. The actual legal reason is that Facebook wanted to make sure that all the users only add real friends to their account.

    So I guess they set up the limitation on the highest number of friends an individual can have. However through my point of view, I think the actual reason might be scaling problems which made this necessary. Any one agrees ?? ;)

    You should add wisely, And if you try to add anyone and almost blindly then you will be banned and you will not get your account back!
