'''The Buddy List''' (also called the Friends list) keeps track of the players you like to play with. Friends see when you are online, can be reached with the Buddy chat line, receive a "logged in" line in chat when you arrive, and can be invited to a party or a Messenger chat with one click. Press <kbd>R</kbd> to open it.

== Adding a friend ==
# Open the Friends tab (<kbd>R</kbd>) and press '''ADD FRIEND'''.
# Type the character's name. Names are 3 to 12 letters or digits.
# Optionally type a group name (up to 16 characters). With no group the friend goes into ''Default Group''.
# Confirm. The other player is added to your list at once but shown as '''pending''' until they agree.
# The other player sees a Yes/No prompt saying that you want to add them as a buddy. When they accept, you are friends in both directions and the entry stops being pending.

A friend request can be sent to a player on a different map or channel. If you ask again while a request is still pending, the request is simply sent again. If the other player's list is full, they automatically decline and you are told that their buddy list is full. If your own list is full you see <code>Your buddylist is already full</code>.

{{Note|The Buddy List belongs to your whole account. Every character on the account shows the same friends, with the same groups and the same number of slots. An offline friend appears under the name of the character that was added; an online friend appears under the character the account is playing now.}}

== Using the list ==
The Friends tab lists friends under their group headings. The buttons along the bottom are:

{| class="wikitable"
! scope="col" | Button
! scope="col" | What it does
|-
| SHOW ONLINE / SHOW ALL

|-
| GROUP CHAT
| Invites the selected online friend to a [[Messenger]] chat.
|-
| ADD FRIEND
| Sends a friend request (see above).
|-
| EDIT
| Opens the group editor to move friends between groups; a selected group heading ticks all of its members.
|-
| PARTY
| Invites the selected online friend to your [[Party]] (needs a free party seat and you to be the leader, or to have no party).
|-
| BLOCK / UNBLOCK
| Adds the selected player to your block list, or removes them from it.
|-
| DELETE
| Removes the selected friend or cancels a pending request. The friend is removed from their list too.
|-
| NOTE

* A friend is shown as online even when they are on a different map from you.
* When a friend logs in you see the line <code><Buddy> Name is logged in.</code> in your chat.
* The '''To a Friend''' chat target sends a line to all of your confirmed friends at once, wherever they are; see [[Chat Commands]].
* Chat shortcuts: <code>/buddy</code> sends a friend request to the nearest player, <code>/buddies</code> opens the Friends tab, and <code>/unbuddy Name</code> removes a friend.

== More friend slots ==
A new account has room for 20 friends. Two shopkeepers sell more room, five slots at a time:
* [[NPC:Mr. Goldstein|Mr. Goldstein]] in [[Map:Lith Harbor|Lith Harbor]]
* [[NPC:Robert Holly|Robert Holly]] in [[Map:Ludibrium|Ludibrium]]

Each purchase costs '''240,000 Vesos''' and adds 5 slots, up to a maximum of '''50''' (six purchases, 1,440,000 Vesos in all). The fee comes out of the Vesos in your bag, and the extra room applies to every character on your account. Both shopkeepers tell you when you have already reached 50.

== The block list ==
Right-click a player and choose '''BLOCK''' (or select a friend and press BLOCK), and that player's party, trade, guild and friend invitations to you are silently dropped. The block list holds up to 50 players; if it is full you are told so. A blocked friend shows as blocked on the Friends tab, where the same button becomes UNBLOCK.
