Hi BB,
Let's have a list of favorite friends.
It is very annoying to look around the friends list to find a particular friend, it can be isolated in a separate list :)
Having been on here for a couple of years I have accumulated a lot of "friends", mainly by doing and giving out loot spots.
Most of those on my friend list I may have only interacted with once or twice but there are a few I regularly talk to or visit to buff and it can be a pain scrolling through 13 pages of "Friends" looking for the one player I actually want.
By having a "Favourites" list I can add those special few players to it and it would be much easier to find them.
+1 ... I could use this feature too for the same reasons :)

No to favourites. Just remove the requirement for friends to send lootspots. Friends should be people you want to talk to, not just a huge list of anyone you've ever swapped a lootspot or traded buffs with
I agree that better management of the friends list is needed - I think what Hazgod says makes the most sense - be able to trade directly with anyone, not just people on your Friends list.
The not allowing for direct trade with anyone is to protect new players, besides Hazgod meant sending adventure invites direct. Not direct trade which is something different. Something alone the lines of a invite option being added when clicking on a players name. It would require a confirmation so as to prevent accidental invites being made.

Merged all suggestions where players are suggesting to do something about the order in which your friendslist shows your friends
Can we have a way of sorting this list into something meaningful? Currently it's kindasorta in descending level order - but it's not:
http://s29.postimg.org/xsl5d58qv/guildlist.png
Can we have it in one of the following - better yet, give us the choice!
Alphabetic ascending (and please, make it an alpha sort not ASCII, so anything beginning wit A is at the beginning, regardless of case!)
Descending level order (alpha subsort would be good)
Online then offline (alpha subsort would be good here too)
In friendslist it's sorted by lvl and per lvl in alphabetical order.
In guild it's sorte by rank, then by lvl then in alphabetical order
Just for Info: Guild is sorted by
Member Rank ... then Member Level ... then Member Name
I played around a bit with my one to sit all the active players at high rank just so they are most visible on the first page of the list. Only the guild master can do that though.
OK, Member Rank. That's the thing that makes it look crazy. Sorting on an invisible field. Gotta love it.
we need a favourites option too
An online/offline button would help a lot.
Some more threads..
A "Favourites" option in the Friends menu
Friends list filter
Done that too. Just getting a bit tricky when it comes to semi-(in)-active players - where to draw the line..Quote:

The concept of friends is not well implemented.
When I want to find an actual friend I have to wade through more than 100 "friends" to find them.
What are currently termed "Friends" in game should be renamed "Allies"
A new Friends list could be added for actual friends.
Merged
This would require a new mechanic
A search function would be nice though.
There is a function to see if your friend is currently online
/findFriend Friendsname
There's also a function to whisper them without first having to find them
/w username
I know these are both not the solution to your question but perhaps they help a tiny bit :)
+1 for search function
In the avatar menu in the game we can choose All, friends, or guild and see whether they are online or not, sorted by level, then name, or in the case of guild, rank then level then name. I see there is enough space in the GUI for another category.
I would like to mark certain friends or guildies as favourite because I some times want to do something next time two or three specific players are online at the same time. With a favourite icon I could just mark those few as favourite and I would see them all on the same page and easily see who of them are online at any given time. As it is now, I usually need to find those two players separately because they are rarely sorted on the same page in guild, friend or all category.
I think this favourite feature should be completely independent one-way lists, so that I can have one list, without influencing the lists belonging to those other players.
Merged
Question: is the "all" section even needed? Why not have "guild" / "friends" / "new category" instead? Guild and friends are already overlapping to some extend, "all" is just putting all in one pot, which makes no sense because why would someone search through a huge "all" list anyways?
I don't think we need extra tabs just a way it is displayed.
Isn't there a way to change how your friends are displayed?
Now it is always sorted on level..
why not make the player choose how the list is sorted and displayed?
I'm thinking about options like:
* online - online active users are listed first
* favorites - make you own favorite list and put them first
* name - list them in alphabetical order
* level - we have that one already and some may find it useful ..
It would be much easier to find a friend or member that is active or favorite without having to scroll through a list of members.
Oh and while we talking about the Friendslist, is it possible to make it possible to manually refresh the list? or at least keep your focus?
It's very annoying when you have finally found the one you are looking for to disappear because the list is refreshed and to find yourself at the start of the list
so you have to start your search again....
My 2 cents
Add an online button to where the 'All', 'Friends' and 'Guild' buttons are so you can see who is online rather than having to scroll through a large list. I just sometimes want to see who is online without having to go through one of three lists to do it.

Hello fellow settlers.
I have been let's say struggling with Friends list menu for some time now and since we got improved star menu already I think it's only fair to get a new friends list menu with search ASAP...here's my suggestion:
Attachment 6825
Alternative: http://prnt.sc/cejkv0
On the left side:
Current Add friend & Invite via e-mail buttons can be in one row which can allow to use the second row as search.
On the right side:
The last unused "button" under Guild could serve as three other options:
- Favorites (your most used contacts)
- Adventure contacts for you adventure - invitees
- Adventure contacts where you are invited
Maybe the last two (adventure related) are not that needed and maybe there will be some better suggestion (like A-Z sorting without lvl) if more people like this idea, but it's a start.
Have fun.

I like the idea, especially the search and favorite functions :)
its good idea

Since (for a variety of reasons) the friends list tends to keep growing, some kind of control would be nice. If there was simply search and favorites it would solve all my needs.

Why not get rid of the avatars at the bottom totally and have a drop down menu similar to this from a different game:
http://prntscr.com/cer3s0
You can then sort by rank, alphabetically etc. Clearly we would need different column headers for TSO to that game but would be far more workable than all the extra tabs being suggested.
FL fix would be nice - atm it's a huge mess

We can expand the bottom UI a bit to add this function.
been suggested before

but +1 yes would be very useful to have

Just to be able to sort friend list alphabetically would be nice. I have no idea what lvl people are. +1
