Sorry but I'm going to have to say BS. 

They would have to make exceptions for people like Jay-Z or Eminem that will have millions of people friend requesting them and that would be extra work.  Besides, Facebook's a big boy, it's server can handle itself.  It's not like this is hosted by 1 little laptop in a 25 year old dude's basement.  It's one of the largest sites on the web.  YouTube's server never has trouble and its just as big as Facebook with 10 times as many videos.

I just heard that Facebook limits the numbers of friends that a person can add. I have a friend who is into cosplaying and she got so many friend request that she had to open another account.

Yes my friend this information is true that if you make more than 5000 friend then you account will be banned. I have a friend whose account was banned on acceding that limit.

Ban? Without informing the account's owner? I just knew this issue.

It Isn't  a rumor, its a fact you can not make more than 5,000 thousand friends.

If it a concern point for you then worry not one can make more friends on Facebook by allowing  them to subscribe you.  One can have limited number of friends but can have any number of subscription or subscribers.

This is surely a FAKE news. Common guys, how can a giant site like Facebook with massive massive data base possibly start hanging ? It must be our low quality systems which can't handle thousands of friends  :))

Yes it true that Facebook have a limit of 5,000 connections which include both friends and Pages (not just friends). You will not be able to accept incoming friend requests or like any more Pages if you get to that number. And the best solution is to Allow Subscribers. Then you can have an unlimited of connections
