How do I see who I blocked?

Open Messages, then Friends, then Blocked. Members you blocked are listed there. When nobody is blocked it reads "No blocked users".

Block, remove a friend or turn off requests: which one?

Three controls, three different jobs.

  • Block User is for one member, from their row in your friends list.
  • Remove Friend ends one friendship without blocking the person. See how to add and manage friends.
  • Allow Friend Requests is one switch for everyone. Turn it off and nobody can send you new requests. See social settings.

Tip: if one person keeps writing to you, block them. If you get requests from many people, turn requests off.
