Just fancy the idea of nobody being able to see me on the galaxy map. Also I'm an anti-social sod.

Nothing personal to those who are on my friends. I just feel like having a clean slate.

I sympathize.
I never started with a friends list to begin with.
It's just me and my ships :).

Likewise. Strange that you added them in the first place. :S

Sometimes stuff doesn't occur to you as unwanted till you have it there to see and then not want. When it's not there in the first place it's simply not there and you may never even consider it.

I used to have a humongous friends list, but I did some housekeeping one day and got it down to a manageable number. With that said, I do love seeing all my "friends" populating the gal map--the game just wouldn't be the same without it.

Hmm.

An alternative might be using Private Group mode whenever you want to be safe from other players, or invisible to them. I'm not sure if that's better, though.

I had a "friend" try to interdict and kill me once, but the poor guy couldn't even bring me out of super cruise. Sure it lets others see where you are but at the same time keep tabs on them. It's all about your perspective really.

I think if I were to do as the OP wishes I wouldn't tell anyone, I'd just do it. Anyone that asked what the problem was I'd re-friend.

I have quite a few on my friend list that I haven't seen enter the game for a long time (many since 2.1). I keep them because it can be interesting to see what might bring them back.

I figure just keep your friends list to actual friends and/or people you actually play the game with.

Otherwise it's just random people 'keeping tabs' on you. Or, even worse, they're not so random.

Illustrates one of my (minor) frustrations with Elite: Dangerous. The game's social tools are wanting. I've added and removed friends over the years based on what I'm doing in the game. I'd really rather be able to SORT them into groups based on WHY I friended them in the first place. I had to dump a lot of my friends from The Cassiopeia Project and from my time in The Formidine Rift simply because the massive friends list with no context behind it is too cumbersome.

I'd like to have a way of grouping friends into lists ... and then being able to hide my online presence from certain groups (or from everyone) based on what I'm doing. I'm a Federation lackey yet I've made lots of Imperial friends over the years thanks to our shared interests in exploration ... but I can't exactly have them seeing my icon on the galaxy maps when I'm actively undermining an Imperial system. Sorry guys ... gotta delete you.
