I have requested to be friends with a few players in the last couple of weeks. I have not received notification in any way to see if they have accepted. Did that get moved?
Also, I would get quite a few life requests from friends on a daily basis. For about a week now, I am only getting a few requests total for the day. This is disturbing to me because I keep up with these requests so I am able to ask for a life in return. Could it be possible it's only my list of friends that have stopped asking for lives? Seems unlikely.
