    Default Please fix friend's list - export/full problem

    Specifically - once you export a list, there seems to be no way to edit down the list, and then when you try to import it to someone you start losing names because "Your friend's list is full".

    After several years, there are many people on my list for example that no longer play, or if they do I dont care anymore because I havent run with them say for 3 years - but every time I create a new character and import, I have to go in and delete a ton of names to make new room.

    I used to have the habit of adding in every alt for some people, and some people have two accounts still, so 20+ names.

    I have added new names over time, but most cases they dont get added in a new import because I cant tell if it adds names alphabetically, or randomly, but I have a number of character that are the only ones with a friend listed, because I cant just export every time I add more and then re-import the new list to everyone else - because it fills up and then stops adding randomly.

    So - a function to be able to edit your master export list would be super nice, and/or increasing the size of the friends list so that it doesnt fill up so fast if you had added all 20+ characters for a bunch of people.

    Thanks.

    Are you sure you can't? I managed to edit out some people from my "master" list last week.
    The procedure I used:
    Edit the names out from my char #1 list, then export
    log in into char#2 and clean the friends list, then import
    Repeat for char #3 #4 and so on.

    The deleted names never showed up.

    After exporting, you can also go edit manually the file that is being saved (something like friends.ini) and delete those you don't want anymore.
