Alright there is an issue with individuals adding others but the other party ignoring or never adding them back. So before you know it your friends list gets piled up with individuals that never added you back. So you may get something like 400 friends with 200 who has added you but not knowing which one added you and which ones never did.

So what I suggest is one of two things. Either a system that lets us know who hasn't added us back like a pending friendship so we can cancel the friend request and un-add them.

or

A system in which if someone is requested to be added to your friends they are not added onto your friends until they accept the request in return.

Well you could always go through both lists and look to see that?

@ Princess

Both list only show the number of people who have added you and the number of people you have added. so for example I had 252 people added and 223 who added me but no way of knowing who has me added and who doesn't. So I had to delete everyone just to see who has me added. I deleted 252 people to add 223 people who did have me added.

No you look at the names on both lists. And you can compare the lists to see if they have you added or not.
It shows the names of the people who added you and who you have added

Princess, when you have over 400 persons added into your friendlist, that method is unpractical, slow and boring.

@BlitzTheFox

Again Blitz I direct you to the fact that deleting a bunch of your friends just to pick out a few that don't have you added is unpractical. Cross References names from those who added you to those who haven't you takes a lot of time from your game time and shouldn't be a method of picking out those who haven't added you

Full support.
I might need to use this for a lot of my friends. (a lot)
I will not go through every. single. person. I wish to unfriend and use that button. That takes time out of my day that I could have used doing something else. (Like typing this) So yeah, it'll be very useful if it's implemented.

I'm... not certain if I support this or not, because I'm not 100% sure I understand what you're trying to say. I'll try to give some input anyways, tho'.

If I were you, I'd just cmnd+F (or an equivalent) search names and see which ones pop up twice.

And about the system being "impractical"... if you have a few hundred friends, that's kind of the reason why it's a chore to compare the two lists. It's nobody's fault but yours for adding so many. ^^;

Additionally, I think comparing lists is more of a time-saver than your method of deleting people. But that's just my two cents. ouo;

@Ufimtsev

Even so if you add someone and they add you back but somewhere along the road some people decide to delete their friends and there are many who do than you are left with people that removed you. Going through the list of people that still have you added and the list of people that you have added is quite the homework when you have over hundreds of friends. It becomes quite the chore which shouldn't be necessarily taking up your time when the game is not focused on removing and deleting friends.

So if you have a few friends than this wouldn't be useful to you but it also wouldn't affect you in any way but it would help many of us who do have various friends. You don't have to support it but there is no real reason to be against it.

honestly, I feel that if you can't remember most of your friends' usernames, then that's a sign you have too many. But that's besides the point.

Er, anyways... I think I understand what you're saying, now.

In other words, you're suggesting something like this?

Yes more or so.

But I know most of my friends and many people I have added for mutual trading in-case they post something in their feeds, interaction exchanges.

I have the friends who I talk to on a daily basis than there are others who just add each other for the interactions and the connection of trades. Having just 10 of your closes friends won't help you excel in this game we also need random users who can help interact. And along with those random users you can also make new friends. But sometimes those other users don't want to be friends and it helps that there is a method to keep track of it instead of taking up from the time you can spending building up in the game or among other things one must do in a daily basis. That we don't have to spend most of our time going through our list trying to see who hasn't added you.

I understand the suggestion of being friends and who you know but this game is not primarily based on getting to know anyone but interacting. On another note many times you add someone either their not online or don't see that you added them so they need time and you may miss the feed that says that they have added you because you are away or not online. So most times you aren't sure if those individuals added you back.

There have been many occasions where I talk to someone for over a week and they never added me back or in vice versa. So it is a handicap to keep track of your friends and those who want to be friends with you.
