Blocking Other Player's Sims & Messages
How does it work? I tried it on a couple annoying people, but now it says they're on one of my Sim's favorites and contacts list. Why?? Also, I randomly got a message inviting me to enter someone's ...

I've been confused about that feature since Day 1. I thought the game was telling me someone else struck up a relationship with one of my Sims, so add the user as a friend so I could see the relationship progress.
So I agreed and tapped. That's when it said "Friend request sent" or something, and then I just about had a fit. I did NOT want to initiate that add, and it embarrassed me that the game kind of railroaded me into that position.
However, I do get notices when a friend user's Sim meets another relationship milestone with one of my Sims, and I collect rewards for it, too. I'm assuming my friends get the same kinds of notices when my Sims reach a new level with their Sims.
I really like that kind of exchange and welcome it wholeheartedly. It's just the uninitiated thing I don't understand, so I usually ignore those requests.

Yeah, that's the thing, if it's a Server-side/Game generated prompt then they should word it better, or have a disclaimer that it will send a friend request. Because as it is currently, it reads like spam from other players. I was just like, Who is this person and how can I get them to stop? Something like 'Here's a neighbor suggestion!'.
And, there really should be a way to turn those off if you want to.
So, on to the other half of my problem, why are Blocked players sims in my sims contacts/favorites list? If you block someone, they should sever the ties if any of your sims from theirs.
