These sort of problems have been encountered and solved elsewhere. For example: To message a friend, first you have to friend request them. When this person received this connection request, they can accept it, or refuse or ignore it and never be contactable again.

Even if they once accepted and have received messages, at any time they can unfriend and block and never hear from them again.

The solutions are so easy. SuperCell should catch up, and do protective things like this, like enabling blocking of repeat offensive join requests.

The OP wants a search function which is totally different to a friending function and totally different to a messaging function.

A friend knows how to communicate with another friend. A friend can easily find another friend. A friend can quite easily communicate with another friend using one of the many comms apps that pervade the platforms on which this game is played.

SC does not offer anyway to communicate with specific people other than when that person is in your clan. Changes to this don’t appear to be ruled out, but several other alt methods/lines of messenging have been ruled out. So I would suggest this is not going to.be implemented any time soon.

What purpose does a friending have, if you are unable to communicate with that friend ? None. So why would SC care to implement it ?

So if someone has been playing for two years, and they happen to share their name with someone else in the game, you want to make them change theirs, after all this time? You can't unring that bell.

They won't do this anyway, because of cyber-stalking potential.

Tend to agree. I imagine that they could do it without problems, but it doesn't sound like something supporting the game.

I would rather see SuperCell implement something that supports affiliated or sister clans or feeder clans. In-game friends, who are not real life friends, are in sister/feeder clans. Maybe some kind of multi-clan chat?

There aren't actually privacy issues, but it would be useless there are literally thousands of people with the same name.

No. If someone has the same name as me I wouldn't like to be forced to change it. Why would you need to search up the IGN of someone you live with? Just go ask them.

For now, it's ruled out.

That's more specific than searching for player's name.

Supercell only uses that for support issues.
