So i left my server to avoid an abusive person, i changed the character name, and then some friends begged me to come back, so under my new name i returned. There were no friends listed in my friend list... but the people who i had friended before had my NEW character name in their list. And when i refriended them, they didn't get prompted.

This means abusive person has my new character name in their friend list, i blacklisted them so there's that... But tell me, is this the expected behavior? Maybe my case is rare and odd. Should my new name be on my friends lists, before i even friend them on returning to my old server? And not be on my list at all? Thanks!
