Feature Change Announcement
In the coming days I will be changing the Buddy/Block List to a blocking-only list (called, appropriately enough, the Block List ).

In other words, there isn't a heck of a lot of use. So what I'll be doing is moving all the buddies on everyone's lists to their Favorites Members list, and the drop-down list on the Send New PM pag
