  1. How do you unfollow people that are also friends?


    It seems like the whole list is bugged now. When I just follow someone, I can easily unfollow. If they follow me back, we become friends and I don't follow them anymore.

    Now since the update I apparently have 120 friends, follow 40 people and nobody follows me, but the people I follow are actually friends and the only way to unfollow them would be to also remove them as friends. The option for unfollow just doesn't exist then. It doesn't make sense.

    I need know

    Hello VZ,

    Followers are people that have friended you while friends are people you have friended. People have different reasons for "unfriending"/"unfollowing" someone but I wouldn't focus on it too heavily.

    IE) Perhaps you no longer play the game they main, haven't heard and/or talked to each out in while, etc. I've known a few people who have even "unfollowed" simply because they wanted to be the top of their leaderboard.

    Random people adding me

    I get this from time to time.

    Some people are obsessed with having lots of followers.For some reason they think it makes them look good or cool so what they do is add people hoping the person will add them back & if they do they will then unfollow that person so it looks like they have loads of followers.If you don't follow them back then they'll unfollow you & try again later.

    It's quite pitiful really & one of the reasons i wish they'd change the friends/followers system on xbox.

    Glitched Xbox profile followers

    You can follow anyone on xbox, they would have to unfollow you for that to go away. If you blocked them they will not be able to see anything with your activity or account. I have more followers than friends also because people will try adding me and I
    dont add them back.

    How do I disable the leaderboard or remove people from the leaderboard on Xbox one?

    Thanks for the reply. I only see options to friend, favorite, or unfriend someone. Is there a specific way to unfollow and still keep them as a friend or do you mean unfriend?

    Yep this happens. Did you want to suggest anything? Or just pointing out that people simply do unfollow others like any other social media? If you want people to keep following, be consistent, and like all good friends, if they don't want to follow you,
    you probably don't need them then anyways!
