The '''Buddy List''', also known as the "'''Friend List'''", is a list of all your [[Buddy|buddies]], which can be accessed by clicking the red and yellow penguins on the [[Toolbar]] at the bottom of the screen. The friend list button is the third from the left on the right side of the [[toolbar]].
+
The '''Friends List''', (also known as the "'''Buddy List'''"), was a feature in ''[[Club Penguin]]'', accessible through the [[toolbar]], that provided a list of all the confirmed friends a player had, as well as allowing to send friend requests.
You may have 0-500 buddies. If you are trying to add a buddy and you have 500 buddies, you do not have to delete a buddy. The buddy list had been updated in October 2011. Before October 2011, you were only able to add 100 penguins and your buddies wouldn't have a green ring.
 
   
 
==Features==
 
==Features==
===Find===
+
===Friend list===
  +
A list of all the friends a player has. Penguins that appeared here either confirmed a friend request sent by the given player, or sent one to the player that the player in turn confirmed. A player can have a total of 500 friends.
If a buddy is on the same server as you, and is online, you can locate their position via clicking the "question mark" button on their player card.
 
   
  +
Friends are sorted alphabetically. Each friend is displayed as a square image of that player's [[player card]] upon their last log off, and their name in the bottom; a small badge in the upper-left allowed marking/unmarking a friend as a "best friend", which will pin them to the top of the Friends List. Offline friends' image are marked with a dark blue shadow, while online friends are automatically pinned to the top.
===Visit Igloo===
 
   
  +
Clicking a friend in the list will open their player card, which, in turn, provides further options, such as removing the friend, sending a [[postcard]], going to their [[igloo]] and so on.
You can visit your buddy's [[igloo]], via clicking the "home" button on their [[player card]]. The advantage of this is that you can visit their [[igloo]] while they're offline too. Now you can visit igloos without being their buddy, but only if that player set their [[igloos]] visitors setting to Everyone.
 
   
===Users in Room===
+
===Search===
  +
The bottom of the Friends List included a search field, which allows searching for any player in ''Club Penguin''. If the searched player was found and they are not in the current player's friend list, they would appear in a box marked with "+ Add Friend", which will send them a friend request upon clicking.
The Users in Room section was a feature on the old buddy list. It showed a list of all the penguins in the room you are currently in, including [[Famous Characters|mascots]]. This feature was removed when the Buddy List was updated on October 28, 2011.
 
   
  +
Names of certain players, however, are not processed, and instead return [[#Famous Penguins|a special message]] in the client-side.
===Ignore list===
 
{{Main|Ignore List}}
 
The Ignore List is the counterpart to the Buddy List. Although the same limitations apply, the ignore list isn't as popular as the buddy list. Penguins who are ignored (via their player card) will appear on the list. You can wish to unignore them from here. Ignoring a player also means you will not be able to receive any messages or postcards from them.
 
   
  +
===Non-list features===
==Glitches==
 
  +
Except for the Friends List itself, befriending another player unlocks some additional features:
*Temporarily, back in 2006, members were able to add up to 300 buddies, but this was removed due to the fact that it lagged the [[Club Penguin]] servers.
 
  +
*Players they can send their friends a postcard and visit their igloo, even if the other player is offline. In addition, if the other friend is online, the "Find" button becomes clickable in the friend's player card, which opens a popup window with their current location.
*When more than one [[Buddy]] is uploaded to your Buddy List at the same time, the second name and the others after that may be shown as 'undefined'.
 
  +
*In-game marking- inside rooms, friends will be marked with a green circle around their penguin, in a similar manner to how each player sees their own penguin with a blue circle.
*There was a glitch back from 2006 - 2008 where penguins could add more than 100 buddies, this was fixed after the [[Club Penguin Improvement Project]].
 
*Beginning at the [[Adventure Party: Temple of Fruit]] in 2012, the buddy list never shows that a mascot is online even if they are.
 
*There is a trick that allows you to add all of the mascots using Google Chrome.
 
*You can go to a [[mascots]] igloo when they are online, by clicking a member whose igloo is open then switching to that mascots [[player card]] if done correctly the igloo icon will be available on that mascots player card and you can enter their igloo. This will only work if the mascot is online and if you are in the same room and server. If you try to go to mascot igloo when they are online, you will get a forever loading screen.
 
*There was a small glitch, when if a penguin is in a [[Secret Room|secret location]], it will say ''<[[Penguin]]> is in hiding'', rather than ''<[[Penguin]]> is hiding''. This glitch is fixed now.
 
*There used to be a glitch where when someone is in someone else's [[igloo]] it says that they are in their own [[igloo]], which could confuse you. This is now fixed.
 
*There is a glitch where sometimes all your buddies are [[members]] even if they are [[Non-Member|non-members.]]
 
*There is a glitch when you click a player card, the player card is not shown up. This happens sometimes.
 
*Sometimes if you open a mascot player card and it takes long time to load - if you click in other friends of your buddy list, that penguin will be the name of the mascot.
 
   
 
==Famous Penguins==
 
==Famous Penguins==
After the update on October 28, 2011, It is possible to search for offline penguins. Obviously, penguins will try to send friends requests to [[Famous Penguins]] and [[Moderators]]. To disable this, the Club Penguin Team sends messages when this happens, sometimes with picture of the famous penguin.
+
After October 28, 2011 update, it became possible to search for offline penguins. However, searching for a famous penguin displays a small monologue preventing you from sending them a friend request. The only way to add a famous penguin as a friend is to meet him on the island. When added, famous penguins will be at the bottom of the friends list, clicking on their image opens their player card. Players may not mark a famous penguin as a best friend or be notified what room they are in or what server they currently are.

==History==
  +
On October 28, 2011, the friends list got a major update. Beforehand, it was essentially a small window with 3 tabs:
  +
*Friend list- an alphabetic list of friends. Online friends were marked with the smiling [[Emoticons|emoticon]], while offline friends were marked with a blue, mouthless face emoticon. Clicking a name would open their player card. Unlike the list after the 2011 update, the original list had a limit of 100 friends.
  +
*Players in room- a list of all players in the current room. Friends and mascots were marked with a laughing emoticon. Just like the friend list, clicking a name would open their player card.
  +
*[[Ignore List]]- an alphabetic list of all penguins ignored by the player. Clicking a name would open a prompt button for removing/keeping the ignored penguin in one's list, rather than opening their player card.
  +
 
==Glitches==
 
*There was a glitch from 2006 - 2008 where penguins could add more than 100 friends, this was fixed after the [[Club Penguin Improvement Project]].
 
*There is a glitch where all players on the list are shown as [[members]], even if they do not have a membership.
   
 
==Trivia==
 
==Trivia==
*If you look up semi-famous, but non-meetable penguins like the agents it tells you that they are busy, even though they aren't meetable.
+
*Looking up for a semi-famous penguin such as [[Billybob]], [[Happy77]], or [[Jet Pack Guy]], told players that they are busy.
  +
*Despite Billybob and Happy77 leaving Club Penguin, players were unable to send them a friend request unless they met them.
*When you click a famous character's [[player card]] you can not go to their igloo.
 
 
*On April 25, 2013, [[Rocky]] and [[CeCe]]'s in-game sprites and [[Player Card|player cards]] were completely removed, meaning players could no longer search them on the friends list. However, their friends icons were still visible.
*Even though Billybob and Happy77 left Club Penguin, it still shows that you have to meet them.
 
  +
**The same had happened with [[Merry Walrus]].
*Club Penguin does not suggest to meet Herbert on the island if you search him.
 
  +
*The 2011 Friend List system was based on [[wikipedia:HTML|HTML]], rather than [[.swf|.swf files]].
*Mascots are bots, so they can add as many penguins as they meet.
 
*A few day working glitch once happened, where the penguin's playercard on the list were inverted.
 
*On April/25/2013, [[Rocky]] and [[CeCe]]'s in-game sprites and [[Player Card|player cards]] have been completely removed from [[Club Penguin]] files, meaning you can no longer search them on the buddy list. However, their Buddy icons still remain on the files itself.
 
*Although the limit is 500, [[Polo Field]] has a limit of 653. <ref>https://twitter.com/polofield/status/480117795179331584/photo/1</ref>

Buddy List

The old Friends List

Buddy List2

The new Friends List

The Friends List, (also known as the "Buddy List"), was a feature in Club Penguin, accessible through the toolbar, that provided a list of all the confirmed friends a player had, as well as allowing to send friend requests.

Features

Friend list

A list of all the friends a player has. Penguins that appeared here either confirmed a friend request sent by the given player, or sent one to the player that the player in turn confirmed. A player can have a total of 500 friends.

Friends are sorted alphabetically. Each friend is displayed as a square image of that player's player card upon their last log off, and their name in the bottom; a small badge in the upper-left allowed marking/unmarking a friend as a "best friend", which will pin them to the top of the Friends List. Offline friends' image are marked with a dark blue shadow, while online friends are automatically pinned to the top.

Clicking a friend in the list will open their player card, which, in turn, provides further options, such as removing the friend, sending a postcard, going to their igloo and so on.

Search

The bottom of the Friends List included a search field, which allows searching for any player in Club Penguin. If the searched player was found and they are not in the current player's friend list, they would appear in a box marked with "+ Add Friend", which will send them a friend request upon clicking.

Names of certain players, however, are not processed, and instead return a special message in the client-side.

Non-list features

Except for the Friends List itself, befriending another player unlocks some additional features:

  • Players they can send their friends a postcard and visit their igloo, even if the other player is offline. In addition, if the other friend is online, the "Find" button becomes clickable in the friend's player card, which opens a popup window with their current location.
  • In-game marking- inside rooms, friends will be marked with a green circle around their penguin, in a similar manner to how each player sees their own penguin with a blue circle.

Famous Penguins

After October 28, 2011 update, it became possible to search for offline penguins. However, searching for a famous penguin displays a small monologue preventing you from sending them a friend request. The only way to add a famous penguin as a friend is to meet him on the island. When added, famous penguins will be at the bottom of the friends list, clicking on their image opens their player card. Players may not mark a famous penguin as a best friend or be notified what room they are in or what server they currently are.

History

On October 28, 2011, the friends list got a major update. Beforehand, it was essentially a small window with 3 tabs:

  • Friend list- an alphabetic list of friends. Online friends were marked with the smiling emoticon, while offline friends were marked with a blue, mouthless face emoticon. Clicking a name would open their player card. Unlike the list after the 2011 update, the original list had a limit of 100 friends.
  • Players in room- a list of all players in the current room. Friends and mascots were marked with a laughing emoticon. Just like the friend list, clicking a name would open their player card.
  • Ignore List- an alphabetic list of all penguins ignored by the player. Clicking a name would open a prompt button for removing/keeping the ignored penguin in one's list, rather than opening their player card.

Glitches

  • There was a glitch from 2006 - 2008 where penguins could add more than 100 friends, this was fixed after the Club Penguin Improvement Project.
  • There is a glitch where all players on the list are shown as members, even if they do not have a membership.

Trivia

  • Looking up for a semi-famous penguin such as Billybob, Happy77, or Jet Pack Guy, told players that they are busy.
  • Despite Billybob and Happy77 leaving Club Penguin, players were unable to send them a friend request unless they met them.
  • On April 25, 2013, Rocky and CeCe's in-game sprites and player cards were completely removed, meaning players could no longer search them on the friends list. However, their friends icons were still visible.
  • The 2011 Friend List system was based on HTML, rather than .swf files.
