Is there a way to block a player?

Hi! Is there a way to block a player? Someone keeps asking for lives but they never send, even if I ask. They are also not one of my Facebook friends...

Hi @misskingthequeen Welcome to the Candy Crush Friends Community

Candy Crush Friends Saga will show both Facebook friends as well as random King friends. I do not believe there is a way to block or change at this time.  You may wish to create a post in the Ideas section recommending it be implemented. Are you able to receive lives from other friends?

Hi @JustPlaying thnx for answering.Yes, I can receive lives from other players it just gets sooo annoying when someone constantly asks but never sends

@misskingthequeen - I came to this page to ask that very same question     I have 3 who blow up my box asking for lives...constantly, it seems... I've asked nicely in a fb post that if you want to ask for lives, it would be a nice thing to send me a life occasionally, but that did not work... I just want the capability to block their ability to send me requests.... several other of my friends send me requests, but send me lives, too, and I gladly return the favor.....  If I can't block them, it would be nice if I could delete the requests after I get them.

@misskingthequeen - I googled it... found the steps to block requests from friends without blocking the friends...  I hope it works...   here are the steps that I did: 
   
To ignore all app invites from a specific friend:

1. Go to the top right of Facebook, click  and then select Settings
2. Click Blocking in the left column
3. Scroll down to Block app invites and enter the name or email of the friend you want to stop receiving app invites from

Note: Your friends won't be notified when you block app invites from them.

@peevy2 Exactly! It makes me not want to play sometimes because I know there will be some unwanted requests that I can't do anything about 😫 Hopefully they will fix this for us soon 🤔

@peevy2 Eureka!!!! Now i can play in peace again!!!! 😁😁😁 thanks so much for sharing this, I'm sure it will help others!

@misskingthequeen... I just hope it works!  

peevy2

@misskingthequeen - well, I've now learned that it works....no more unwanted requests for me!!!  yayyyyyy...... hope you were successful, too  

misskingthequeen

@peevy2 no luck for me unfortunately 😫 the person I keep getting requests from isn't one of my Facebook friends, just some random person and since I don't know their email or anything, I can't block their requests thru Facebook. Woe is me...😣😬😫

peevy2

@misskingthequeen.... omgoodness.... that is very frustrating.... I wonder if king would allow you to change your player name in order to avoid that aggravation... and I am so sorry that that did not help you... .there's gotta be a way around that annoyance... I'll think about it and research it further and if I find an answer for you, I'll let you know

@peevy2 Im doing some searching on Google myself as well speak haha...c'mon King plz fix this...it not right to have Facebook friends and random people requesting lives but I can't decide who I want to send lives to because they pop up in the exact same box at the exact same time. I could be trying to send my friend a life but the dreaded person that never reciprocates always gets a life out of it too 😬😬😬

I came here looking for the exact same answer! I have a fb friend in particular that I get 50+/day life requests in candy crush! I've grown beyond annoyed with her. I even began only sending her the number of lives she sent me and she never sends any lives but instead responds by requesting a dozen or more lives. I even got petty and began sending her the same amount of requests that she had sent me thinking maybe she would see what a nuisance this was, but shes either a dunce or more petty than I am! I'm so fed up and have tried the method listed above but doesnt seem to be available with the newest GB update the happened recently. Something has to be worked out to allow easier blocking or deleting of requests!

I've been dealing with this same thing and it's been driving me crazy! I found the solution! Uninstall the app on your phone, then reinstall, and sync your progress with Facebook. Game info saved, troll gone! I searched my friends list and she's gone! Woo hoo!

Hello @Catlady71 Hearty Welcome to this lovely King Community 🤗

I think your game is still having the issue in your game!! Receiving too many requests from one single player was a glitch that occurred last month ago or so AND it was supposed to be all cleared by now! Since you just reinstalled the App your game must be up to date and the glitch should have been removed!

But, I am glad to hear that, that single person who kept sending requests is removed from your lists! If they are not your friend, they could have been added from the King account (if you have one)!

But, you must have lost all your saved up boosters with this re-installation step 😮 If you didn't have many, that's good BUT, there were lot of boosters, unfortunately, there is no way to get them back again!!

I don’t know if this is a fix but I found the person on Facebook and blocked them and any name that was close to her name. Logged out of candy crush game then signed back in and all the persons request was gone. So I don’t know if it worked but hopefully I will not get anymore request from that person
