# Ask the Resident if you can send them a friendship request.
# If they accept, right-click their avatar and choose '''Add Friend'''.
#* If they're remote and you're in a {{vh|Conversations|conversation}}, in the instant message window wjhe, click '''Add Friend''' on the left.
# Upon their acceptance, they're added to your friends list.
