Unsolicited friend requests from strangers, is a plague. It's wonderful that they have the option to block them entirely.

so you want every potential scammer to send/spam you a friend request?

Got it...

friend request prevention is just stupid.

God forbid I want to add people who are good at the same games as me.
Honestly, this is the stupidest thing on here, if it's actually a real problem then allow us to limit the friend requests we receive in our settings.

Instead you reset a timer every time we try to send one out, and you don't even give the timer so as far as I know it's a few days, 2 weeks, or a month.

The cooldown varies from 1 week up to 1 month "from the last time you saw the error message." Key point in quotes. This means if you saw the message today, you may have to wait a full month before you can send another. Have them add you instead.

Read this post that explains a little bit of the new restriction...

The cooldown has many variables for when the account gets this message. No 1 account is the same in this matter. Some will get it after 1 invite, others 30.

Spam and scam protection like this was added for a good reason.

"Got it..."

I wouldn't add level 0 accounts, I have nothing on my account worth being scammed for except cs2 cases, but I'm VAC banned on that so not worth anything, and for spammers? really? you can't just deny a friend request from people you've never talked to before?

Why should I be bothered with that?

It got really bad before the new restrictions.
People were getting literally (in the actual literal sense) hundreds of friend invites a day, every day.
