RMTs latest tactic is to send a friend request with the annoying tells in game. The friend request stops you from instantly blacklisting them, instead this becomes a multi-step process... especially being that clicking "NO" does not remove them from your friends list. You have to go decline the request a 2nd time.

I also want to refer to this topic.

Finally... I may have a good friend that I want to blacklist temporarily... We all have good days and bad days... This does not mean I want to remove this person from my friends list. Sometimes you just want peace.

1.) Clicking "NO" when sent a friends request needs to be all that is required.
2.) Blacklisting anyone should be instantaneous without any mitigating factors.
