How to change important friends. Important friends on VKontakte: what is it and how is the list formed
I don’t know if you are aware, but you have the opportunity, with the help of simple actions, to remove your friend from the top positions of the VKontakte friends list. All you have to do is, with a couple of clicks, lower your friend's priority in the news section, after which he will drop to the bottom of your friends list. Let's look at 3 ways in which this can be done.
Instruction No. 1: through demonstrated activity:
The most common way to remove a friend from the top of your friends list is to promote other friends to the top. This is all done for a very long time and manually, because this requires visiting friends’ pages as often as possible, rating and commenting on their publications and communicating with them through personal messages. The more actions you take with certain users, the higher they become on your friends list.This is how you can displace your enemy. Just be active on the pages of other friends on your list, and as for your enemy, forget about him. For the method to work, you must not maintain contact with this user, otherwise he may not only remain in the same place in your list, but also jump even higher!
In general, a little time spent, a little patience and a little caution - and you will reach your cherished goal!
Instruction No. 2: through the news section:
You don't have to do everything manually. You all have a personal life and more important things to do, but to remove your friend from the top positions of the VKontakte friends list there is an even simpler function.This time we will need a recording of our enemy in news feed. Unfortunately, this method does not always work. If a person has not published new posts on his wall for a long time, this method will not help, so use the third method. But if your friend is actively posting new posts or has posted recently, you can scroll down the feed and easily find one of his posts. But to make his post easier to find, do the following:
When you have found your friend's post or have hidden all other news to find your friend's post, follow the instructions below:
Instruction No. 3: through the user page:
This method is much simpler than the first two. However, in order not to rack your brains and save a lot of time, it is better to use this method right away! Here everything is done like this:
Due to the nature of the work social network On VKontakte, the order of friends does not change immediately, but several hours after the manipulations have been performed. So after you have done the above steps, just be patient!
After some time, your friend will move down from the top of your friends list. It has been verified that a friend can be either in the middle of your list or at the very end. It all depends on the activity you show towards this person. For example, if you just added a new friend and he's in the top of your friends list, hiding his news will drop him to the very bottom of your friends list. And if a person was in the top because you often visit his page, send him messages and like his photos, after hiding the news he will be approximately in the middle of the list or slightly higher.
It is worth noting that the methods described above also work with communities. That is, by lowering the priority of your groups, meetings or public pages, you will move them to the bottom of your list of communities.
Good day to everyone, my dear friends and guests of my blog. Probably many of you know that in the list of your friends on VKontakte, at the very top are the most important of them, those whose page you most often visit, communicate, etc. In this regard, many people are looking for how to remove a person from important friends on VK. I don’t know why this is so, but apparently they just don’t want to “get burned” in front of someone.
In fact it is much easier than to reduce their position. But in any case, today I will show you several ways how you can do this very easily.
The simplest and in a fast way there will be a banal deletion. But don't worry, it won't last forever. Just go to your friends and remove the one you want to move below. After this, the “Cancel” button will appear, which you will immediately need to click on.
After that, refresh the page and you will see that this friend is much shorter than he was originally. And the most important thing is that everything went painlessly. After this procedure, your friend may already be in 5th place, or maybe 12th, or maybe even thirtieth.
But let's not forget one BUT. After such manipulations, not only will your friend drop to the lower positions, but you will also drop down on his list. If this is not important to you, then go for it!
Suppression by activity
As I said above, the top of your friends depends on your activity with him, i.e. visits to the page, likes, communication, etc. This means that in order to reduce a person’s position, you need to do two things:
- Don’t go to his page at all, don’t like anything from him, don’t communicate with him at all for some time.
- Be hyperactive towards your other friends. Visit them several times a day, like them, comment on their posts. The introduction to dialogue is a very good addition to the list.
But the effect is unlikely to come immediately. In order for everything to work out, you just need to wait. But don’t worry, you won’t have to wait weeks or months).
Hiding news
To lower your friend's importance on your list, you can also hide his news. To do this, you need to go to his page, then click on the ellipsis icon under his photo. Next, select the item "Hide news".
If your friend posts frequently, that's even better. We go to “News” and find any of his publications. After that, click on the ellipses icon and select "I'm not interested". This will also be a great call to downgrade your positions.
But by default, you may not be able to display your friends' news. If this is the case, then go to “News” and click on the plus sign on the right side, as shown in the screenshot. Let me select the “Friends” item, which will then appear in the sidebar. This is what you should click on to get news from people, not communities.
But if you don’t want to hide anyone from the news, then after a while return everything as it was. Your friend will appear in the news again, but his position will not increase. In these simple ways you can change your friends list on VK.
So now you know how to remove a person from your important friends on VK. I hope that my article today was useful to you. And of course I hope you will visit my blog again. Good luck to you. Bye bye!

Have you ever known that VK has a number of friends? Yes, yes, at the time of writing, it amounts to 10,000 users including friend requests. What if there are more friends? This means they will be your subscribers.
Finding users with 10 thousand friends is, to put it mildly, not so easy. For most, this figure is much lower - 200-500 user-friends. But today we won’t talk about friends, but about how a list of friends for a user is formed. Here, as it turns out, everything is far from so simple.
Important friends
You've probably asked yourself why some users are ranked higher than others? This is explained simply - at the top of the friends list are those users with whom you communicate most often. However, if you see a user at the top of the list with whom you have not corresponded for a long time, he did not get there by mistake - in addition to communication, other factors influence the sorting, including likes to friends, replies in comments, reposts, etc. Therefore, the list of important friends (and it is called that way) will contain those users to whom, roughly speaking, you pay more attention than others.
There is an important exception to this rule: the list also includes those users whom you recently added as friends. This is done so that you do not forget about them and communicate. If you do not communicate with them, then over time the list will be reformed and these users will be lower on the list of friends.
Friends of other users
Can the above be applied to other users' friends? No, you can’t, because in this case the list is formed based on mutual friends. If there are no mutual friends, then the list can be formed based on the date of user registration. But it is possible that users can be ranked randomly, if you do not take into account mutual friends.
Friends online
If we are talking about a list of friends who are online, it is sorted by the “importance” of the friend, that is, there is no difference in the first case, except that the list will show only those friends who are online at this moment time.
The formation of a list of friends in the “Online Friends” window is probably formed in a random order - with each update the list may completely change. We dare to assume that this was done for a reason, but so that when you see one of your old acquaintances, you decide to write to him.
Mobile app
IN mobile application There is a list of important friends, it’s called “Important”. The order in which users appear in it is the same as in the first case, described above.
Can I change my friends list?
The list of important friends itself, and friends in general, is generated exclusively automatically. But you can influence the rankings. For example, the more you communicate with the user, the more often you like him, repost him, etc., the higher he will be on the list.
Let's look at several ways in which you can demote any user on your friends list. The simplest is not to be active towards him: do not visit the page, do not write messages, do not comment on photos and posts. Over time, it will be replaced by those people with whom you communicate most often. The main thing is not to maintain any contact, otherwise the plan will not work. You can also always prevent strangers from seeing him among your friends at all.
Demote a friend via news
If you have no time to wait and need to quickly move a friend down a few positions on the list, then you need to mark any news from him as uninteresting. (Read also). This is done as follows. Go to News, look for any post from this user among the posts, hover the mouse over the ellipsis and click on It is not interesting
Afterwards, do not show news.
This manipulation will certainly lower your friend on the list. If you don’t want to unsubscribe from his news, you can cancel the action; it will not affect the result. For more quick search, if you have a cluttered news feed, you can use a filter.
Knock out from the top with one click
There is another way, although it will not work immediately, but after a couple of hours. Go to the victim’s page and select from the menu Actions field Hide News.
You can also return the news of this user to your feed and wait for VKontakte to perform the necessary manipulation and demote your friend, knock him out of the top. Choose any method and write reviews in the comments. I hope the information was useful.
Previously, a rating system was introduced from the social network VKontakte and in the first places in the list of your friends were users with a high rating. Today, sorting friends happens in a completely different way. At the very top, the people with whom you exchange messages and leave comments the most, that is, the people with whom you show some activity. More activity, higher on the friends list.
After being added, new friends are also in the top ten of users, as if reminding them of their existence, and over time they move down.
How the list of friends of other users is formed
If a user is your friend, then you are in first place. Vacant positions are then filled by people who have a relationship with you. mutual friends. Next are all other pages, sorted by registration date.
How to promote a specific friend on your friends list
To raise a friend to the first place in the list or within visibility, you need to be more active on his page, visit it more often, like each new photo, write to him private messages and comment on his posts. A little time will pass and this user will surely take first place on your friends list.
If you need to quickly raise a friend, then remove him and add him again. The only negative is that your friend may find out about this manipulation if you hide all your updates in your privacy settings.
How to demote a specific friend from your friends list
To do this, it is enough not to communicate with him, not to visit his pages, and every day the user will go down, hiding behind those with whom you communicate. If all your friend's activity and updates are displayed in the news, you can click on the cross in the right top corner, then click on the “Do not show Vasya Pupkin’s news” button. This action over time will move your friend Vasya down several positions. You are not interested in his news, which means you are not interested in his page, why display it in the top positions?
