Better friending system

Issue

The current system for friends is inaccurate. According to the system, when two people are following each other, they are friends. Although this isn't true. One artist could just be following the other because of great music, and the other could have followed back for whatever reason, and they are unlikely to truly be friends.

Suggestion

Follows should not have a say in the friending system. Friending should be a separate system where each user sends a friend request to other people and the other people can either accept, deny, or simply ignore it and let it sit for an eternity like what I do with most friend requests that come my way in Junon.io. To prevent spam, a single person can friend one single other person once every month. To further prevent spam, people can set who can friend them (everyone, friends of friends, no one (meaning only outgoing friend requests work), etc.). They can also change how often anybody in Audiotool can friend them (default is unlimited, but it can be set to once a day, once a week, once a month, etc.).

Notice

I don't want to be too hard on the devs. I am a programmer and I understand how hard it is to do stuff. I'd like to reduce the size of my requests to make them able to be carried out as quick as possible. I would only create larger requests if I believe that they really are important. This request isn't important, but it's still something to consider. It would make community connections a bit better. For priority, I'd rate this a 1/10, meaning it can wait for priorities 2/10 and above, I don't really care. If it never gets implemented, there's no harm.

I like how people focus on reposting requests for samplers and commenting on them but overlooking stuff like this. No, I am not complaining about this not getting added, I am just simply disappointed that it doesn't appear as if anyone looked at this at all.
