Friends and Mail are how you keep up with other players: a friends list that shows who is online right now, and a private mail system built around threaded conversations.
Where to find it
- Friends: /friends/
- Mail: /mail/ (in the Talk menu, with an unread-count badge)
- You can also message or friend someone straight from their profile.
Friends
- Search for players by username (2 or more characters) and send a friend request. If someone declines, cancels, or removes you, no coins or items are involved - friendship is free.
- If two players send each other requests, the second request auto-accepts the first.
- Your list splits into Online and Offline. A friend counts as online if they were active in the last 5 minutes. Players who turn off "show online status" in their settings always appear offline, without a last-seen time.
- From the list you can open a friend's profile, jump straight into a mail message, or remove them.
- Inviting a brand-new player through your invite link makes you friends automatically the moment they verify their email - see Inviting Friends.
Mail works as conversations: you start one with a subject and a message, and all replies stay in the same thread.
- Subjects are up to 255 characters; messages are up to 5,000 characters.
- There is a short 5-second cooldown between sends to prevent accidental doubles.
- Every message is automatically screened before sending - anything flagged as inappropriate is blocked and never delivered.
- Recipients get an email notification about new mail.
- The recipient picker only shows players you are allowed to contact: blocked players and players with a friends-only private profile (who are not your friend) do not appear.
Your inbox also has a Notifications section that collects system messages (quest rewards, expedition returns, referral bonuses, staff announcements). You can mark everything read or clear it all with one click.
Safety
- Players under 13 cannot send or reply to mail. They still receive system notifications.
- Blocking a player (from their profile, or by username in Account Settings) stops mail and friend requests in both directions and hides you from each other's searches.
- Never share your password or personal details in mail. Report scams or harassment at /report.
