Hi, I'm Jay and was wondering if this site had a friends list? and if it doesn't why not?

Hi Jay it doesn't and the reason is we don't need it- we're all friends here
I can understand friends lists on Facebook because you can restrict who sees your content to your friends but what purpose would it serve on Armorama other than being a competitive thing like the the post count and rank markings?

Well some people would be easier to access if there was a friends list instead of always replying to the same message over and over but I do understand your point. Thanks for clearing things up a bit

Jay,
I think I get what you're saying, but as Pat says it would work against the main structure of the site. However, as a handy "phone book" of people you regularly want to send PMs to, that would make some sense. Or a "what has Joe Bloggs posted lately?" search tool. But I'd be more than a little upset as a member if it meant useful information was being restricted to a small group with everyone else left out of the loop.
Just my thoughts...
