I think Warren summed it up well.

But to make a distinction, I wouldn't consider every single person on my "friends list" in a game to necessarily be a "friend". The game just lacks a better way of letting a player add contacts. 

It sounds a little cold, but I kinda wish they had either separate lists, or didn't call it a "friends list" at the start. I know I've got a few people on mine that are simply there. Of course, these are people I'm not going to ignore, but I generally also just use the friends list as "that thing that changes someone's name color so I know I've talked to them on multiple occasions". 


I'm also too lazy to bother setting up the friends list grouping to try sorting things that way. It's much easier to just add someone and if I'm looking for open-world RP, I'll walk up to the first person with and orange name plate. Same goes for real life too though. Phone's contacts are just a list of people I speak to often. ...but I'm not going to scroll through it and say "hey! I don't know who this is. ...LEMME CALL THEM!"

edit: I should note, while the above probably sounds harsh, I'm also terrible with names. I'm pretty terrible at planning things because of it. I've yet to find a person I have ever needed to ignore in game so more than anything, if I'm not talking to someone, it's probably because I forgot their name or I have opened my friends list in like.....a month? I'm /tell-able always. (Unless in a duty for for obvious reasons)
