Red Nations is scurvy dog
I agree i would like to see an option for blocking random guild and friend invites. I'm a veteran player and I've been in a guild most of my time in the game so I don't get a lot of guild invites. I find the random friend invites especially irritating, especially when in battle and having one of those pop up windows opening up blocking my view. I was very glad when they introduced the boarding permissions for our ships.
Back when I first began playing "Pirates" was my first online gaming experience and I didn't know any better than to accept all those random friend invites my first couple days of playing.

As a result I spent a couple of miserable week not being able to launch my ships without having a half dozen random idiots teleporting onboard and getting me sunk. This was before the boarding permissions days. It took a while to weed out the friend lists getting rid of all the problem people and the people who randomly teleport to you without first asking permission, which is another pet peeve of mine.

I've been away from the game for a while and recently returned and I have noticed that Disney does seem to be taking action toward the guild invite spammers and friend invite spammers as I'm not seeing this happen as often as it was last year.
