Pal Pad - friends only/block
Forum-Index → Suggestions → Implemented → Pal Pad - friends only/blockI bought the Pal Pad thinking it would be a way to just message friends quickly, which it is, but random people can message you too. I'm suggesting that the Pal Pad would only let you communicate with people you added to your friendlist and added you back. I've already had about five people message me that I didn't know.
An alternative to this would be a block list/blacklist for users you don't want to message you. I would prefer this one, actually :p I think it's pretty self-explanatory, but if you don't get it, it would be a list of people that wouldn't be able to message you via the Pal Pad (and possibly PM but that's completely different).
Any thoughts on this?
I mentioned earlier that I want a PalPad for just "pals" as in people I am friends with. I don't want a StrangerPad for just anyone and everyone to message me.
If you want to trade, PM me, if you want to beg me for PD or nuggets or shinies or whatever PM me. My PalPad is for friends only xD That's why it is named PalPad, for pals haha
So yes, I support, and I know many others do too but of course I won't speak for them. I just don't want random people messaging me, especially if I remove someone from my friendlist I don't want to see them in my chat and have them messaging me for whatever reason about why this and that. It's easier for me to ignore a PM and let it sit there as apposed to having my chat get random messages from people.
Take that troll to the lol
BUT we would have to think what those "Pals" exactly are. Users that YOU have added to your friendlist? Users that added you to their friendlist? Users with which both happened?
The PMs are good for strangers to message you, but the PalPad should be really for Friends only.
Adding onto that: Maybe there could be some function to enter a Users name somewhere to temporarly add it to your PalPad list?
Haha but anyway at least that's what I had in mind, mainly because me like I know a lot of us, have more people friends with us than we are friends with. I'll use me as an example, I have 15 people added as friends, some of them not mutual like staff for example. On the other side I have 100+ people who added me. I really don't need 100
I'm closing this thread right now since I doubt that there will be any useful discussion about it and is only flooded with "I support!"-spams.
