I just went to my buddy list and you can now block your friends from seeing where you're at.
i went to look didnt see it where is the block button on the list
Look at the very bottom of your friends list
ty found it and away i block lol
great thanks O0
Thanks Tigereyes for the info!!! :)
Looks like those petitions that i kept getting in my pogo inbox finally paid off. I was harassed and stalked by so many players, and sent so many reports to pogo, i thought they would never do anything about it. I am glad they did what they did with the blocked friends feature(i am not too good with spelling). It would have been better if the would have added another TAB at the top where it has HOME/PRIZES/FRIENDS/PROFILE/MESSAGES/ACCOUNT/HELP, so we dont have to scroll all the way down to block people. It would make it easier for paying members to block people from bothering them. Maybe I will write to pogo and see if they can update that feature. Happy Pogoing Everyone!
Lets say I block someone that I don't want them to know where I am play, I guess you can unblock them add them back to you friends list if you wanted right. I love to block a friend so I can get this one game done without them bothering me.

Yes Fluffy you can block them and then when you want to unblock them you can do that. :)
Hello Bree
I hope you are well
I believe they tell the person that you have them blocked Not sure but that is what I believe when they go to find you
thanks
i don`t have any friends to block so don`t need to use button :))
Hi MaMa
I do But I wonder when they click on your name if POGO tells them they are blocked
It could happen Just a guess :-\
i am soooooo glad they finally added this feature!!!!!!!!!
Wish it had a setting where we could just appear invisible to everyone. From what I can see you have to delete everyone from your friends list to do that.
Hi Huggy
I guess if u have a staker and a talker it is good I have neither
so I will keep my buddies ajar O0
im going to go check and see what it does
i have friends on my list but none i need to block they never bother me :) or follow me around :o but i`m sure alot of peeps needed this alot of nuts in pogo land :) spg.gif
just check nope show you not in a game and dont show up on the player info that you have them blocked
EXCELLENT NIGHTPERSON :-*

:) :) :) I'm so darn happy this feature is up & running. I've got one of those "friends" who always begs for help with badges, but then doesn't like to return the favor when I need help. All I can say is...ADIOS!!! LOL

Yes I have one of them also....but the worse one is the one who likes to make my life miserable cause she caught me talking to her cyberboyfriend! :))
This is a good idea in theory. In reality, all they have to do is have another name you know nothing about and will still be able to find you. :'(
The way to block could be easier instead of scrolling down your list and then going to another page to add names.. they should have like a checkbox in the columns next to the names in the friends list, like where it has a link to send them a message or to remove them from your list, right next to that there could be a checkbox to have them blocked.. or something like that. Then you could also tell who on your list is blocked and who isn't just by looking at it, and not going to another page.
thats right, so we blocket they name too, waht will be do :(
I found this at the bottom of the blocked players list:
Show my current location to players on my Friends List only.
Hope that helps. spb.gif

You can simply block anyone NOT on your friends list and that will solve your problem.
SAINTHIPPO EDIT: It has been moved! :D

Hmmm..seems like you may be a stalker trying to get around the new feature...(https://www.pogocheats.net/proxy/?http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Laughing/drunk-irish-048.gif)
I have two stalkers both which LOVE to say hey you have your chat off? I see your token count going up..how come your not answering private chat? are you there? hello? wow look at your badges how do you get them so fast and wow your token count went up quite a bit last night when do you sleep....with this new friends list I haven't seen and head nor nails of em. sp.gf spg.gif spb.gif
Don't you love this new feature? Peace and quiet at last now when I play in pogo. ;)
no friends on my list so don`t need this button :)) :)) :))
great for you bubble O0 spg.gif

Hey mama, you don't need ppl on your list to have them add you to theirs and stalk you. That is what this feature is for. You can just check the thing to only allow ppl on your friends list to see you and no one can follow & stalk you after they add you to their list.
(https://www.pogocheats.net/proxy/?http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Drinks/irish-drinking-beer.gif)
OK, I have experimented and figured out that you can still be invisible to other names people may have even if you don't know about them. If you do check the option to "Show my current location to players on my Friends List only", but still have people on your list that aren't really friends but people who you have to watch out for, then blocking those names individually will take care of that.. and even though they are still on your friends list, and you have the option checked to show your location to friends, blocking them individually supercedes that and they won't be able to see you. If that makes sense.
great thanks crazy get alot of mail from peeps don`t know thanks for info O0 heres one for you spb.gif
that what i didnt i did it so know ones knows im playing all night that is great to know play all night with auto and no one can see mecan get rnaks alot faster to get the and them badges lol gl all

Mama, what you are talking about is Pogo Mail? If so you have to take care of that in the "Messages" section and on the left side click Preferences and then check the thing to only accept mail from ppl on your friends list.

I just checked mine and I have the same thing in my list on the messages only.
They are not on my friends list at all though and like you I don't know any of the names.
Under that it also says in red that you can't add pogo staff to friends list then under that it has the names that really are on my friends list.
wonder what is going on wish i knew hmmmm any1 have any ideal
i dont see anything different. No new names in my friends list. Must have been a glitch in pogo's system, AGAIN!
Now I see there are 2 names that were added to my friends list 3 times each. Pogo's really messed up.
What are the names in your lists? Were there only 2 of them, but listed as being added 3 times each like mine?

Mine has changed yet again lol. Yesterday there were at least a half dozen, plus the part that said I could not add pogo staff. Today there is 1 name twice and the message is I can't add myself to friends list lol. None of these were ever on my friends list, it shows up in the list when you set up a message to send (pogo mail) where you choose who to send it to. I checked again and the only names on my actual friends list are those that I put there. It's weird. ::)
I do not want to put any names in here as I have no idea who they are and if they are real people I don't want strangers wigging out on me lol. >:D
ya very mess up sometimes i have 2 then 15
It shows 1 name in mine and I don't know that person and in my friends list theres a name "screen" I didnt put that there and dont know who it is and when I clicked it to see the profile it was just blank...I took everyone off my friends list and put them on a friends list of a name I never use...that way I can keep up with them but they cant see me...lol Isnt that mean? lol
:)) yup but so did i i wonder why pogo has mess that part up oh well i have to just incase they did maybe they added this to let you know ppl have added them on your list but i dont think they should be able to i check and none of them has a profile
As long as you keep the box checked that noone can see u except people on ur friends list ...Im not gonna worry who puts me on there on list...I dont talk to anyone in the games much cuz usually I have auto going and doing other stuff...lol
same here they may see ya but like i said mine changes everytime i go look i think pogo message on that was mess up so not going to worry bout it
I just hope they keep the block feature there...Im loving it O0
me to loving it have all friens block so look out rank badges auto all the way O0 well in some game but the private ones running all night
same here has alot of the same names but no profile
In the Blocked friends section do you have to check the box where it says "Blocked Friends List" or should it be unchecked? Thanks for any help. :)
unchecked i put the names in that i wanted blocked
Thank you Nightperson!!! :)

Bree I would keep that box checked for the simple fact ....Anyone can make a new name and see where u are and see if u have them blocked....They see you on there list with a new name then change to there old name and they dont see u....ur gonna have someone mad at you... :-\
I do not have anyone blocked Tara, I just wanted to know if the box had to be checked or unchecked. Thanks for the info tho!!! :)

Decided to use an old topic instead of a new one but I've noticed this feature doesn't work as advertised. I've created a new Pogo name (not Club Pogo) and added my Club Pogo name to that friends list. Since I have that box checked "Show my current location to players on my Friends List only", I figured it wouldn't show where I was. Don't know why I was shocked (considering it's Pogo) but there is was, pointing out which dominoes room I was in. I went back to check to see if I had that box checked (didn't want to come here and say it wasn't working when it could have been a human error) and I confirmed that box was checked. Am I the only one having this problem? I know many people mentioned the "stalking" has gone down/stopped but if this isn't working correctly, then I don't see the point of this feature.

I have tested and tested and tested this feature with non club names and club names...the first day there was a few problems...but not since then...did you try closing everything out after you put the check in the box? You know like a reboot kinda thingy...and honestly it probably happened to you cuz your advertising Pickles...lmao

LoL, I don't know what you're talking about... Pickles????
Seriously, yes I've refreshed, closed my browser and made sure my new name wasn't on my friends list. Just thought it was odd. I even tried another Pogo name I have and it too was able to see where I was located. Could there BE any more Pogo problems?!?!?!?!?!?
I just checked a few names out on mine and mines working right...I have no idea why yours isn't and Pickles...come on where u been...that blonde chickie in ur siggy...thats Pickles
