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

I wish they’d just allow users to accept chats from anyone so that we don’t have to add people to our friends list just to chat with them. From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Mart-Jan Reeuwijk Sent: Thursday, August 30, 2012

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. From:

I don't wish that. Then you'd have 12 year olds sending you messages all day if you're beating them. Just like the cesspool that is XBOX Live. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit:
