Manage Requests

You can see, accept, or deny all incoming friend requests from the Friend Requests tab. If you miss a request in-world, it will show up in this tab.

  • If you accept these requests, the member will be able to see your private pictures, jump to your location in the 3D world, etc.
  • If you deny these requests, nothing happens, aside from their removal from this list.
  • If you block a member they will be unable to request again, and you won't see them or their chat in the 3D world.


You can see or cancel friend requests you've sent to other members from the Pending Requests tab. If you cancel a request you can still send another one later, or the member can send you a friend request.
