All Networks Friends Removing You When You’re Offline

[xHappyMood]

I think we all know the moment when we suddenly discover someone has removed us as a friend. This might be days (or potentially weeks) after it has happened if you were removed while being offline. When you’re online while it happens, you get a message saying someone has removed you, but when you’re offline you aren’t told.

That’s why I suggest to display a message in chat saying someone removed you the first time you get online again after you’ve been removed. This would be useful, because you’ll spot it faster if someone has, for example, done a /f clear, and you’ll be able to readd them as soon as possible.

I think this is a great idea! A bit of a niche, and will likely not be useful all that often, but its the attention to details like those that I like!

I wouldn't want this to be honest. The only reason I remove friends whenever they are offline is to avoid conversations and arguments about why I removed them. Not that I remove friends that often, but it happens.

If they’re being annoying you can always ignore them? I don’t think most people would be really annoying anyways.

Hi! I disagree, since most players do not want to show that they removed you, however it could be usefull.

Yes, that is true, but that is exactly the situation I want to avoid. I don't want them to know I removed them.

I agree, if someone is going to remove another person, at the very least they should know. And if you want to message that person you'd have to have your friend request accepted so I don't see any downsides to this. +1

really nice suggestion i hope they accept it bec i wonder who removing me xD

They’ll find out sooner or later no matter what. Maybe a little sooner if this gets implemented, but whether they’ll discuss with you immediately or after several days doesn’t really matter.

Sometimes certain things are best if avoided, I wouldn't want to justify myself to everyone I delete if I simply don't want them on my friend list anymore. Most social media apps don't notify people when someone has removed them and it's simply out of convenience, sometimes you just want to silently remove some contacts, and that is completely respectable. You never know the circumstances and the motivation behind someone's decision.

Plus, if someone removed you and you can't remember who, they weren't that important to you anyway.

Yes you might be curious, but should that be prioritized over people's right to privacy and wanting to stay diplomatic?

I got like 130 friends on my friend's list and most of them are important. That does not mean if I don't remember them they were not important. It's extremely hard to tell having 130+ friends.

Also, you can only really contact them again if they accept your friend request so there is no harm...

Of course you sometimes remove someone because you don’t want them in your f list anymore, but there are only 2 ways in which they’ll be able to ask you. 1) Stalk you in the lobby/games and 2) Get in your f list again
There’s a solution for both. The /ignore command was invented for the first one, and just don’t accept their f request for the 2nd one.
On top of that, I’m still convinced that they’ll find out sooner or later, maybe a bit sooner like this, but if they want to argue about it, they will, no matter what.

Do you regularly check all of your offline friends? If someone removes you, it’s very easy to think they’re just offline, and it doesn’t happen very often that you go through all of your offline friends to see if they are actually offline.

People’s right to privacy sounds like this is something really bad xd

Oe, Good suggestion! :D

bruhhhhh someone removed me on cube boutta call 911 on them how dare he
I feel violated, harassed, bullied, disgusted, attacked this in unacceptable

 

[InkAsriel]

i agree with this, i as stone rank can only have a max of 10 friends, so i have to remove people at times. most of my friends got my discord, so they could always contact me and ask why i removed them/ask them to add again since someone else became inactive again. its a struggle having more then 10 friends as stone rank ;w;

Bump :p
