Friends List Bugged

Rainbow Manatee·12/11/2019, 12:47:38 PM·184 votes·18,669 views

All folders are missing except the first, League+ and Offline. When I click a folder to collapse/expand it, other folders start showing up one at a time with their names and 0/0.

My current online friends are under General instead of their regular folder. If I toggle "Group Offline" it shows the correct number of people in each folder but my online friends still show up in General, and won't move to the correct folder if I drag them there.

Also I can't see any friends on League+ (mobile).

Edit: Some other friends came online and they're in the correct folder, until I restarted my client. Now they're all in General too.

I'm having the same problem, except my groups are still separated correctly. However, I'm unable to view any of my friend's profiles and when I hover over their name it says last seen: Never... Even though we played together three days ago.

Why is this being downvoted even though its real and a lot of people are experiencing it?

Happening to me too. I couldn't even close my friends list chat. So i was forced to dodge because I couldn't lock in...

These pretzels are making me thirsty!

Same problem here with the friends list. I am pretty annoyed. I can move people to a different folder but, they don't actually move to it. Fix your shit RITO!

Also, what's with this progressively building client lag that occurs when playing? Seems like it gets a little worse with each game and after 7-8 its so bad I have to restart the client.

This game is going to shit! Is LoL on its last leg? I think so.

Tons of free shit
Broken/busted new champions
Blatant cash-grabs (Prestige skins)
Shitty/rushed client/mobile update

Do we need more proof that this game is going down the toilet? Probably not...

I had this problem and fixed it by toggling the "Sort" settings. When I unchecked Group by Server or League+ or whatever each time it started slowly syncing them back to the way they were before. I didn't move anyone manually. Hope this helps.

I fixed this by hitting client repair and relogging.

Brought things back to normal.

Having same problem. Whats up with the downvotes?? This needs fix asap

MeilinII12/13/2019, 10:43:20 PM3 votes

Same issue, unchecking the group games and servers thing didn't help

Me too. Hm. Friends list is messed up. If I toggle my groups show but they don't do anything.

Gyrotype12/15/2019, 5:54:29 AM2 votes

I'm getting the same issues and I also can't change anyone's group. Client believes I'm Rammus and tells me to slow down

SamsWrath12/19/2019, 6:50:45 AM2 votes

RITO went full China on us. LoL is now cheap junk like everything else that's Chinese owned.

Riot : Oh you can add and play with people around the globe now!

Someone : Nice!! Neeko

Agarwaen Iavas12/17/2019, 3:51:04 PM1 votes

The "check/uncheck settings" worked before... then today it decided to delete half my friends and we can't invite to games because "I can't see you on my friends list!" and "You're not even in my recommended invites now." GG Riot. Time to go play other games that are actually playable with friends.

Tahrion12/17/2019, 4:49:54 PM1 votes

I have no friendlist on client. only can chat on mobile app. So i can't even invite my friends...

Frensy12/18/2019, 11:38:09 AM1 votes

Same issues. Has anyone from Riot addressed this?

Agarwaen Iavas12/18/2019, 2:07:41 PM1 votes

As far as I can tell, no. Buncha promos bout their new games and what they did in the latest patches and being aware of the email issues, but nothing at all when it comes to the issue of people not being able to see their friends [and not being able to play with friends because friend lists are broken]. Honestly don't care bout their new games when their main game has something so fundamental broken. I'd rather have fixed content than new content >>

Jeleneth12/31/2019, 9:59:51 AM1 votes

Had the same bug. what helped me was going to the client setting (Gear on top right of the client) and initiating full repair(in the general section). After it the folders and everything went back to normal,hope it helps. Hope it helped you! [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Fields1/5/2020, 4:51:59 AM1 votes

So, this worked for me -

message every friend you have that is displayed "offline" and basically at a null status. This message can be as short as "x". Once you've messaged every single friend that appears that way, then click options and "group offline". At that point your friends list should be back to normal. Not sure if this is a permanent fix or if you'll have to do this every time you log in.

Vincent Otaku1/15/2020, 12:20:49 PM1 votes

Had this issue for a long time, im amazed there is no fix yet and people starting to notice now...

Too bad Riot doesnt give a shit unless atleast 500 people complain or it gives them money. Anybody tried giving them a dollar?

Totally Not Sona1/22/2020, 5:03:36 AM1 votes

Still broken, AND the bit.ly link they put in the announcements to visit in case of friends list issues doesn't exist. Get yourselves together, Riot.
