Enhancing User Safety with Age-Based Friend Request Settings
Salbug
I propose a safety setting for adults that allows them to restrict friend requests to individuals with age verification and/or confirmed 18+ status. Additionally, for minors, a separate setting could block requests from users over 18 and/or those without age verification.

If you receive a friend request, you can always check their information before accepting it. If you want to only accept friends that are age verified then you can do that yourself. This seems entirely unneeded.

Jay Ren Yes, i receive a lot of friend request by day and i don't want to lost playtime checking vrchat profile

RF_GAMER if someone isn’t worth that 2 seconds, are they worth adding as a friend in the first place?

I do not agree with this, however I think it'd make more sense for ALL friend request to include Age Verification information IF the user sending the request has enabled showing Age Verification or 18+

literally 1984
but that might be legit thing for parental controls features in the future.

Amazing idea. Take my Nobel prize.

While I can see the aspect of why, I don't think this would work. When you get a friend request, the first thing you'd do is open the profile to check who even that person is, and you'd see the age verify there if they have it shown. Wouldn't be needed.
