Tired of being pestered by strangers? Trying to focus on being creative or romantic activities with your partner? This ain't an infomercial, but boy do we have a feature for you!

Introduced in Viewer 2, it's called Only friends and group can call or IM me and does exactly that. All other instant messages are ignored. Here's how to make it work:

  1. Go to Me > Preferences.
  2. Click the Privacy tab.
  3. Check Only friends and groups can call or IM me and click OK. You're all set!

Watch this video to see how it works in action:

Caveats

  • Non-friends won't get any acknowledgment that you haven't received their message. You may want to note in your profile that you prefer not to be bothered.
  • This can be an alternative to selectively blocking specific Residents, and can be used in tandem with busy mode.
