Friends & Messaging
Private messages, friend requests, blocking, online highlights - and the Chatter drawer for streets / crew talk.
Coordinate trades, gang moves, or diplomacy without putting it on the sidewalk. Messaging and friends are account tools on your character; blocking cuts both ways.
Messaging
- Send private messages to any character.
- Save, delete, and bulk-manage your inbox.
- You cannot message players you have blocked, or players who have blocked you.
Friends
- Send a friend request from a profile or the Online Users list. They must accept before you are friends.
- Pending requests show in Notifications and on your own profile Friends tab (Accept / Reject). Cancel a request you sent if you change your mind.
- If you both request each other, you become friends automatically.
- Open a profile’s Friends tab to see their list (unless they hid it). See all opens the full page.
- Friends are highlighted on Online Users.
Blocking
- Block from a player’s profile. Blocking clears friendship and any pending requests.
- Blocked players cannot message you or send friend requests - and neither can you.
- Manage the list under Settings → Privacy → Blocked Players.
Chatter
Chatter is the in-game chat drawer - streets talk, crew (gang) chat, and DMs alongside the inbox tools above. Use it for quick coordination; it is not a full standalone chat product beyond what the drawer shows.
