geesh.. PULEZZZ... I'm going bonkers running through my friends list. Wish there was an option that the ones I deal with more in game are at the top of my list and those that I have less contact are at the bottom (not that I don't luv ya less... )
Maybe we could choose our "top" friends which would show up at the tops of the lists they were in? Puting them in groups also seems like a good idea...
I actually kind of like how the friends list work by when you added them. No offense IxAEoN but that makes me think of myspace :/ (and all of that drama)
I think options would be good. Right now, it is briefly convenient to see my new friends at the bottom of the list, but as time passes I don't care when I added them, and other ways of identifying them become more important. It is very difficult to find friends on there now, and an option to switch to alphabetical (or maybe even amount of time they spend on-line, to filter out those that don't really play any more) would be great.
The way you select the MySpace top friends and they give you the option of choosing how many belong in your top, was precisely what I was thinking. I'm much less concerned which order they are in in my profile when other people see them. What bugs me about the friends list in game is that it's slow to scroll, and it takes no notice of who I chat with and I always have to scroll back and forth to those few people I want to interact with regularly. A little bit of intelligence or just simple groups would be really useful to me.
+1 Ix/Eon. Grouping or even sorting Top 10, 20, etc would be great, especially as some of us ignore friends requests just as a matter of not wanting to add to the confusion already there. I know a lot of people who do this, and its unfortunate in a social game.
