6) People's whose posts and game play seem mentally unstable.
WHAT!! UNSTABLE?!?! Who are you talking about!?! Am I your enemy??!!??

A bad ally? Offensive chatter? Somebody who always suicides against you regardless of the game? Simply a strong player you don't want to face again?
I've set 10.
Really, really poor plus non-communicative players.
Partners that drop out of team games with no explanation, but haven't quit the site.
Extremely slow, to the point of skipping, then coming back, skipping again, etc.
[edit: all but two have quit the site, apparently. So you see the impact ...]
+1 to SG's post.
Wow smoke, you are just thrashing the site. Please don't set 10 more enemies. ;)
Sorry guys - I get it now. I'm a little slow!
I didn't realize there were 4 levels to the enemy badge - I thought there was only one. I think it is great to keep the 4 badges signifying different levels - and that way you can tell if the player is really evil! . When I thought there was only one badge, I couldn't understand how anyone could tell a truly evil player vs someone angelic or saintly like me who just makes an occasional enemy by chance .
I just wonder how many people see it as an achievement to get 10+ etc enemies ;)
On the other hand, it could be an interesting challenge to see if you can actually piss of that many peops. But I'll let someone else try.
Oh defeat them so thoroughly they want to avoid you?

Lol. Nah, you're on the other list.

That's exactly what you'd say if you thought he was crazy!

Haha, I'm more likely to back away silently. I leaned long ago not to mess with the crazies if I can help it.
"Crazy? I was crazy once. Then they put me in a rubber room. Then I died. Then they buried me. Then the bugs ate me. Bugs? Bugs drive me crazy. Crazy? I was crazy once.

But since being marked as a friend doesn't play any real role, other than to help make it easier for me to play with the people who I enjoy playing against, there shouldn't be any problem with showing that list, yes?
Or, to say it a different way, I'm curious who has me listed as a friend, because maybe I've just never marked them the same way, and I should, so when I invite people to games, their name shows up more often. It's breeding positive communication, if you will.
Seems reasonable to me - display Friend lists but not Enemies. Anyone disagree?
I think neither should be displayed. Displaying a friends list also displays a 'not friend' list. This may create uncomfortable pressure to reciprocate someone who friends you even that you may not care too. "I friended you, why didn't you friend me" type of thing. This may be a bit too 'politically correct' type of thinking, and I would not be too upset either way, but just putting it out there for an alternate opinion.
+1
I side with SG, don't see that the upside out weighs the down in either list being displayed. We may as well start forming clans. Please don't take me wrong, but "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".
