    Default Larger Friends List - Shared by All Toons on a Server

    Would it be possible to redo friends lists so that we can have a much larger one, which would be shared by all of the characters we have on a server?

    I'm unsure how difficult that would be to implement, but if my nine characters shared access to a single file instead of having to access nine separate files, it sounds like it might be more efficient.

    If you click the Export button on one of your toons, then next time you click Import on another toon it imports all of your friends onto that toon.

    I'd like to be able to automatically add all of someone's alts, personally. It's hard to keep track of people.

    All of my friends lists are full on all of my characters. What happens when I import another toon's full list of friends which are different than the importing toon's friends?

    I wish there was a way to know if people on my friends lists haven't logged into the game in a very long time. That would help me to remove inactives and make room for new friends.

    You get a bunch of "friends list full" messages and nothing happens.

    THIS. OMG SO MUCH.

    Really, the social functionality in this game isn't very good and hasn't been updated since 2010 when I started playing. Probably why everybody winds up making groups on other social sites to keep track of people. It's weird, too, because this game has a much lower proportion of outright ******** that you want to hide from, making it imperative that people can be as anonymous as possible.

    And I would like for you to continue not to be able to do that. Unless there's a way to opt out, please do not implement this horrible idea.

    If I want you to know who all my alts are, I can just tell you.

    Just say no to enabling cyber-stalking and ruining alt privacy.

    Because it's somehow NOT enabling "cyber-stalking" to allow you to be anonymous and freely claim to be a completely different account to other players just by logging in a different toon? That cuts both ways.

    If someone is harassing you, REPORT them for HARASSMENT. Or are you afraid people will find out that you have 47 bank toons?
