Server Friends

[Gabriel Nerevar]

It seems like I can not add more than 25 server friends. When I reach that cap It wont let me add more unless I delete them. Is it normal or am I bugged?

Looked at the Wiki and could find no limit stated for Server or Global Friends. There are friends limitations based on alignment and Global Ignore has a limit of 100.

Thanks.
Then I guess I am bugged.
I wonder if anybody can fix me.

any chance the account being added is mis-spelled?  Same experience with a different account you are trying to add?

I just click on them and it wont let me add to the server friends once I reach 25. I always have to delete one to add another.

A little testing and, no, it's not just you.

The regular friends list has a 25 person limit. At 26, I got "your friends list has reached its maximum size."

This smells like one of those early 2000s 'Storage on our high-redundancy SAN is at a premium' decisions. It occurs that this would be fairly easy and free of consequence to change. Of course, there's always a spaghetti noodle touching things it shouldn't in CoH.

Possibly. Though if you have friends that have a lot of alts, it's probably easier to use the global friends list. It has a lot more space and you only need to snag the account. (I RP, so I have quite a few people like this - I'll often use the friends list to specifically flag some character that's related to the one with the list - their sidekick, for instance, that they'd have an IC reason to be more aware of - and the global for most friending once I know the person.)

Thank you very much 😄
