Deleted friends still showing throughout Steam

Closed

Hmm, My problem is pretty much this title heree. I usually get a nice chunk of random adds a day. [around 15 - 20 on a slow day] and the ones I don't instantly ignore, I eventually deleted by the end of the day.

The Issue is that I can still see wishlisted / now playing / etc and sometimes stuffs on the activity feed from this deleted person. Blech

Soo, either of ya experiencing the same?

I think Steam uses similar mechanics to Facebook where you can follow a user without adding them. Maybe Steam auto-follows people you interact with in the slightest way. Go to their profile and check the dropbox on the top right to see if you follow them or not.
Otherwise I have no idea and you will have to put with whatever they do and say.

it seems steam doesn't remove all the activity/subscriptions at once.
sometimes i get notifications after deleting someone from my friend's list because someone posted a comment on that guy's profile. -_- it's usually gone after one day.

Sort of, what actually happens is that if you comment on anyones profile, it'll often "Subscribe" you to their Wall.

Also, If you're in a lot of the same groups, it's likely that you'll see them more often, if they've ever been on your Friends list before.

And sometimes Steam is just buggy as crap.

Also, you should use a picture of a Less Beautiful Woman, like Emma Roberts, or Emma Watson.

Whoever that is in your Profile Pic is likely to encourage people to try and get on your Friends list, just so they can see a Super Hot Babe in their Friends list.

Happened to me once too. Though the person was still on my friends list, so I just had to delete them again =D.

Ooh, ya mean the little blue guy on the top shelf. Forgot who gave it to me. I believe there's 2 of them, a pink one as well.

Speaking of dragon quest, i own a few of them but tbh have no knowledge of them and can't even recall playing either =\

No offense but... with that cuteness in your profile pic you'll keep getting random creeps on steam.

I would imagine that it has something to do with how Steam updates things sporadically. If it lasts more than 48 hours I would contact support, otherwise just go with the flow and deal with the annoying stalkers/beggars.

Or just take some shoe fund money and hire someone to go take care of those people :P

Hhaha, not a bad idea. .buts sadly I already have my eyes on a fantabulous pair that I intend to buy pretty soon. Spolier there for my next random shooe topic. (@=

Also am too not worried about the stalkers and weirdos, as long as my block list doesn't have a limit. It is however a tad blech seeing the random stuffs from them

Well then AFTER that pair :P lol

Or you could just turn it into a drinking game - every time a deleted person's post shows up take a drink. This is coming from someone who's weekend is starting now though and doesn't work a 9-5 lol.

see, usually (as far as i know, cause who can understand women) buying white shows has another meaning...
my sister painted her "white" shows into black ones. and i don't think my wife knows where her "white" shows are at the moment.
Beige, off-white and everything else is fine

I don't get such problems. No one wants to be friends with me in the first place.

Except bots. I now exclusively approve random phishing bots adds. Who wants to be friends with humans anyways. ;_;

Not very talkative those bots. Though I sometimes get a link to a funny picture from them.
