My account I had since 2008 was deleted for inactivity and I have since been on and off the app with other accounts because I have a habit of forgetting my password and email or because my account gets automatically deleted for inactivity.
Anyway, ever since 2020, there has been many annoying spam bot accounts that has weird display names such as "nudes in my bio" or "follow me for free coins" etc.
Is there no way to help prevent this? Because I find it very annoying having to block so many accounts.

@Da3n3ryz I literally just told you that I was talking about friend requests and followers.
You did not even bother to listen to anything I even said!
And I tried clicking on Privacy on the app and all it does is provides me with settings for cookies.
You are useless!

Hi @Johnny283067 , this article explains followers/following: http://im.vu/help825
As we can block and add/remove friends there is no way at this time to prevent users from
following us. IMVU designed the Feed for Influencers and Creators. Any user can follow us. We
cannot block them or stop them. We may remove comments as needed from our Feed photos.
We can also report users on the Feed if needed.
If/when IMVU changes how following/followers work, they will update us.
Thanks

@Da3n3ryz Did you read my post at all? I am talking about FRIEND REQUESTS and FOLLOWS.
NOT messages.
I want the spam bots to stop sending me friend requests and following me.

Hello @Johnny283067.there is an option if you would like to set your profile to receive messages from only IMVU friends. Go to your IMVU profile settings, navigate to the "Privacy & Safety" section, and adjust the "Who can send me messages" option to "Friends Only.".
Here's a breakdown of the steps:
Log in to IMVU: Access your IMVU account on the website.
Access your profile settings: Click on your username or profile icon to open your settings.
Go to Privacy & Safety: Locate the "Privacy & Safety" section within your profile settings.
Adjust message settings: Under the relevant option, select "Friends Only" to restrict incoming messages to only your IMVU friends.
