Now, most people are screaming "REVERSE IT REVERSE IT!". We all know that Roblox won't do this, they've got their mind set on something, and the mods will just tell us to "deal with it" because Roblox needs to "evolve and grow as a platform" which, I can understand.. though sometimes the methods are a bit.. odd. Rather than reverse it, I'd like to merely suggest you return our Best Friends. Best Friends/Friends/Followers. A lot of us used Best Friends to organize our friends list into being people we are truly close with and play with a lot. Now, with this new update. If we have MORE than 9 friends online, we don't see the rest of our list. We lose that interaction with our close friends, and have to actually find them on our list and follow them, instead of just glancing at the bar. This update DOES hold potential to be something good, but, the removal of an important social feature such as Best Friends is a bit of a silly way to make this all 'more social' and 'easier'.

Somewhat support. I somewhat agree that a better way to implement this would have been to add Following altogether instead of changing the names of the best friends/friends system, however, maybe the reasoning for this method was because ROBLOX doesn't want players confused with too many lists of players, although this seems to be confusing players too. Don't get me wrong, I overall like the update, and it's going in the right direction long-term, but short term players will be confused I guess. ROBLOX warned us several times to best friend our friends prior.

The Best Friends list wouldn't even have to display to anyone except the user. I just want organization. Sure, shorten our friends lists, do whatever, but, best friends were an important social feature to a lot of people. Removing it is silly.

I agree. Best friends were a way to stay in touch with people you played with the most. I don't know why it's gone.

Support. I'd also like to add on about 'Followers'. There should be a option to approve followers, so that we don't get stalked.

Totally support! ------------------------------------------- (1) Trainyay..the thing you said about approving followers so we don't get stalked..it's kinda like the friend requests but this time we're sending Follow Requests. (2) Best Friends = people who we play with the most. Friends = people who we play with often but not a lot than Best Friends. Followers = people who we don't know but want to get updates/feedback on what we are doing. I actually have some friends who aren't my Best Friends, but they're closer to me than regular followers..I don't wanna include them into my Friends because then they'll get mixed up with my actual Best Friends..so that's why we need Best Friends back. (3) This will be more organized because if we have friends who are a little closer to us than regular followers, we can add Good Friends as another category. This will mean we'll have not only Good Friends and Best Friends but we'll also have Followers. ------------------------------------------- If we can email Roblox about this forum post, we might have a good chance of this getting changed/added. Otherwise, now that I'm thinking about it, I kinda like the Followers thing..but we'll need Good Friends and Best Friends to make this more organized. :)

Support. But yeah, these days stuff like Roblox are completely set on thier ideas and say they listen but in truth they only listen to positive feedback. Case in point, Wikia, Roblox and from what I've heard deviantART.
