Simple suggestion..

Be able to filter/hide users who have added you but aren't actually your friend (people you haven't added back or unfriended that still have you added). This will remove a lot of clutter and make for a better viewing experience (especially for us bigger users here). Whole point is to be able to view your friendslist and see only users that are actually your friend, and where there's a mutual relationship with them.



Friendlist capacity increased from 750 -> x

Just something a lot bigger at least, because soon I'll have to clear out a lot of inactives that will end up as users who have added me, that I haven't added back (which will create clutter of course and be hell to look at and go through).

Obviously, I could personally just use a simple script for filtering with suggestion 1 (which is what I currently do), but it would obviously be nice as a feature for everyone to have here. As for increasing the limit, it's not really in my best interest to go removing people (even inactives) and like to have anyone add me, and well I don't see the point of a 750 limit when there's support for a lot more than that.

Don't know if any of this has been suggested, can't be bothered to check.

The friendlist limit must be increased I think for many users are having problem.....I am not having a problem cuz I am not a popular trainer(user) here.......but the ones I know(the popular and bigger users) need more space.....

That is what I think!!(Y)

I was going to make this suggestion too and found this thread.

I totally support this idea. I have more than 2000 friends and many of those are inactives or have left PH.

I would suggest a option that would remove all the friends in your friendlist who haven't been online for like 6 months or 1 year.

P.S. When the removed friends log in again maybe it can be programmed as a notification saying the person has been online again and so do you want to friend them again.

no support. honestly, the limit is incredibly high already. just dont accept random requests if you dont want to get the thing filled. and no support for the notification to unfriend someone. i dont want people seeing if i unfriended them at all, simply because of reasons on my profile. being able to see who unfriended you isn't safe for the user who did the unfriending.

Not everyone accepts random friend requests to get their friendlists filled, so it's not a good thing to assume everyone is doing such thing for the issue to occur, neither is it a good way to prevent the issue when we have many year old members here that have legit met others here that genuinely wanted them on their friendslists. I know plenty that have issues, and constantly bring the limit up, but I really don't blame them. They say that friendlist getting capped off and having a limit is one of the worst updates that has happened here on PH, especially because when it got capped people who had over 750 friends had lost random friends and they had got automatically unfriended and it was just a whole mess.

I quit for a while and came back, and when I came back, most of my friends were inactive. I definitely think there should be something for inactive people getting automatically removed after x amount of time. Full support!

Maybe it could be something that shows the last time an user connected, you could see this in ur friendlist
, this way we can see who has been inactive

I like the idea although I think there should be an option on our setting so that We have a choice to see those people

Since the support has been overwhelming, I found the motivation to present some visuals, and to put this into better perspective.



As you can see, it's a lot more clean and simple now, and already a lot less clutter to deal with.

Took this suggestion and done an implementation of it as you can see above. The time is nothing super precise, but I think how it looks is pretty good with what I've done. The "Last Online" will only be showing for your friends (where both of you have you added each other). I think this is fine (of course with keeping the not showing last action in Contact Panel in mind).

You can also click those 2 arrows next to "Last Online" to sort your friends from most to least active in ascending/descending order as so:


Can see how the arrow changed, and how it sorts accordingly.

I was thinking for the "Users who have added you" section, there would be a way to show/hide users. I do have something good in mind for that, but next post/edit I do I'll likely be presenting that. Really cool what I have in mind currently for that.

More to come.
