Rurumie 306 #1 Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) so.. lately i've been annoyed by a beepload of invites from russian groups (i don't speak russian) It's getting more and more annoying, due to the fact that even if i ignore it, it would popup again and keep inviting me. (of what i could see, even people from my friendlist) Most of these groups got games i don't even have (csgo, skyrim, etc.) so.. anyway.. i've decided to make a suggestion regarding group invites, as i'm probably not the only 1 who gets annoyed by it http://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/10/864957182774206430/ <- if you wanna share your opinion or just generally want to support it. My current idea of it, would be to allow us to change a filter, which would only make friends allowed to invite you to groups or generally none. Note : those who invites me, haven't been on for 2-3 months. so mostlikely a damm bot. (sorry for my english <.<) EDIT : to find the post on the steam forums.. go to community by rightclicking your steam client. click on discussion at top. then suggestions / ideas and then the "Disable random group invites" post, which i've posted. (link above is directly to it) Edited January 17, 2013 by ミク 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rurumie 306 #5 Posted January 17, 2013 Just got 4 new invites to russian groups today, its getting really annoying... for sure \o/.. lets hope for steam to do this filter through. as it would be quite useful. plus, it would be a benefital thing through spam invites when joining a server (due to some servers having an automatic invite scripts) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rurumie 306 #7 Posted January 17, 2013 So glad I'm not the only one... Simple and brilliant idea that I'm shocked doesnt exist (it doesn't... Right?) it doesn't. checked the whole community part of my profile lol. nothing even close to that. would be great if people would give their point of view on the actually discussion thread. just to keep it alive and hope for it to go through lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruby 9,039 #8 Posted January 17, 2013 You can set your profile to private and I do think it should prevent invites if shit really hits the fan with the bots. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rurumie 306 #9 Posted January 17, 2013 You can set your profile to private and I do think it should prevent invites if shit really hits the fan with the bots. doubt thats even possible lol. since it's bots after all... they probably got some kind of shit to do it even so Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nano 7,892 #11 Posted January 17, 2013 \o/ What is this emoticon supposed to be? A man with his hands in the air? The eyebrows of a pissed off Asian? A rock that rolled down a hill then stopped? A diagram of an egg in the menstruation process? A drunk "lol" personified that can't stand up straight? A closeup of a duck swallowing bread? I must know. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
