I would suggest to incorporate this notification center in a new tab alongside the Friendslist / Blacklist interface. It feels more natural here. You'd see a convenient list of pending requests that you can either accept, reject, or ignore. Optionally, you can receive an alert in your bottom right corner (similar to receiving a letter) when there's a new request.

I've played a lot of games and you'd always ask people to befriend you (just like you'd do in real life when you get a mutual relationship instead of a one way relationship like the actual system does right now.). By doing this, you avoid random people from adding you for no reason and put a real meaning to ''friend list''.

This makes sense.

I agree, this could be a nice addition ! I think we need to smooth things out a bit and have less invasive things for the gameplay.

I still don't understand why they did not have a system like that to begin with instead of whats currently in the game.

Yeah I found it pretty weird too, it's not really a friend list if we consider it for a moment

/support
The only "friend request system" we have is to personally ask someone in whispers.
For those who currently have one-way friends, there should be an option to send one-ways a request or remove them from the friend list.

I would suggest attaching reasons you want to add someone to the request itself, but that has more consequences than benefits.

That's a nice add on to have them deleted so you can have full control of your friend list, unlike the present system who does the opposite.

I kind of already like the system the way it is, it lets you know when someone is online and gives people a free choice of whether or not they want to be friends with another person, especially if it's over time. It also lets you refer to someone later, in case they don't want to be friends at the time but you still want to talk to them. It's true that this may make the friendlist more meaningful but at the same time it's kind of awkward in its own way.

I do see where you're going with this suggestion, and it's one that I respect, though. It's well thought out and definitely makes sense to me, and the way this works in other games is usually pretty well

I never understood the purpose of having someone added onto your friends list and them not having you added back, besides for the people who "stalk" (using the term loosely) certain individuals for numerous reasons. As you said in your OP, it only makes sense to implement a request system as most games already use this function; not only does this make sense to add, but it will also help bring Transformice on the same level of other various online games.

I agree with having some sort of notification system somewhere along the lines of what Anythin has suggested, where we would be able to scroll through all pending requests and be able to reject or accept all incoming requests, however, I would personally prefer having it somewhere that isn't in the bottom right hand corner, as that place is mostly dedicated for consumables. I would rather have a heart in the top right hand corner of the chat that glows red when you have a new request, and then the more requests that you have, the more numbers that show on the heart.

I agree with you, thanks for adding more details to my thread with the pictures !

/support because I have a lot of random people I do not know on my friendslist and its like "pfft when did I add you" like I don't want people to stalk me

I don't really like this idea, because yeah. It's better this way but if this actually got updated of course I'd be little irritated but after a while, I'd slowly start liking it!

I mean you don't support because you wouldn't be used to it ?

I like the idea of friend requests. I can see how this would make my gameplay easier.

And this, I like this ^

I like this idea!
I always have people wanting to add me to "teach you about divine, or farming"
i gets really awkward

Exactly, it's less awkward and more forward to just have a request system and also more useful !

maybe i will find out how many people want me to add them back after all these years

I heard that having your suggestion come true is a myth. Who knows maybe one day

i'd love this. you could turn on and off your requests and shit, and then finally i might have more friends
