Before you go on to remove people from your friend list, there are still some things you should know. Firstly, don’t worry about the player being notified that you’ve unfriended them, as they do not get any such notifications. Of course, they may eventually realize you aren’t on their friend list after a period of time.

Next, unfriending a player will make it so any bonuses between the two of you will no longer apply, although if you’re worried about your friendship level, then you’ll be happy to know that it can be recovered if you re-add a friend in the given time period.
