that sounds more complicated than i'm sure it is.  i'm sure there is a limited 
number of friends you can have(as previously stated) but having free 
communication methods without authorization (an Op-in option: meaning you 
should have the choice to turn it on) would greatly increase the community's 
ability to function inside and outside the game. for those that don't want to 
be bothered by the regular trolling, they can turn it off and require 
Friendship auth to communicate. in server chat is one thing to use, but the 
steam community communication system (in the process of getting an upgrade  
might i add) could be utilized better cross-platform be it a game or console. 
(then watch the chat server load multiply and have the chat down more than it 
already is)   I don't see this changing soon (with the Community upgrade) but a 
push should be made to make these changes.

It is necessary that there be a limit.  Valve must maintain a reverse contact 
list in order to notify all your friends when changes happen to your status 
(online/offline/in-game, etc.)  The amount of effort required to do that goes 
up dramatically when you get into hundreds of friends.

I honestly think there should be no limit... I find it silly there is to begin 
with

250 without facebook linked, 300 with facebook linked to your steam account.



There is some glue, sometimes at 245/295 friends you get full, sometimes only 
at x over the max.

Tip: make one or more groups, make it invite only and get them to be member. 
With up to 149 members you can directly chat with them via the groups tab in 
friendslist. At 150 this stops.

On a side note, you can't have more than 300 friends iirc.

Hey all



Is anyone else getting an error when you try to add a friend to steam?



This is the error I'm getting:



#Profile_AddFriendYourListFull

#Profile_AddFriendYourListFullDesc



...

...

... just tried it by clicking on + ADD A FRIEND at the bottom of the Friends 
window and it just came up with this:



'Could not invite this friend. Your limit is exceeded.'



Really? Are you kidding me? I can't have anymore friends? Is this a joke?



Kind Regards



annarack aka miss popular :P
