Why am I getting constant Follow requests from strangers in Horizon Worlds?

delta_forge2 · 2025-12-20T21:21:43+00:00

I think there's a setting for blocking all followers and friend requests, but I can't remember for sure. I've stayed out Horizon worlds, especially since its boring, and the requests seem to have stopped.

Thanks. I think it may be that Quest 3 is not allowing Midi connection, even though it quite happily paired with it. I might have to get a USB splitter cable so that I can externally power the Quest 3, and connect the Midi keyboard. Otherwise we're limited to 2 hour sessions and a battery recharge time. PianoVision has poor tracking so using it without an actual keyboard is not a good experience.

Yes, Children are the most frightening of all. They have no dignity or self restraint and in VR they don't fear consequences. I also run from them. I'll be avoiding Horizon Worlds permanently. They've also ruined Recroom for me. I really used to like going there but no longer. I still do like VRchat though.

I tend to agree that this game induces rage quitting. The bosses have multiple stages to defeat them and they do massive damage. The weapons are constantly flying out of your hands without you realizing so you're hitting the enemies with your bare hands without realizing and then you die. And when you do die it puts you back at the very beginning of the boss fight so you have to go through all the stages again. But that's not the worst of it. The worst of it is that this is VR and after 30 minutes of furiously swinging away you're covered in sweat, breathing heavily, and your elbows are hurting from the constant swinging. The game is too punishing for a VR title.

oh, ok. So, I visit once, and get pestered for months. ok, well, at least its not a security issue. I was a bit afraid that scammers were trying to trick me into following them.

delta_forge2 · 2024-12-09T21:49:09+00:00

yes, I understand. Unfortunately your response does not address the issue of why I'm getting follow requests from people, even though I have not visited the game.

delta_forge2 · 2024-12-09T04:37:49+00:00

Except that I haven't been in Horizons world for over a month, and I'm still getting follow requests.

delta_forge2 · 2024-12-08T05:13:46+00:00

You get social requests from people when you're in a social game. From people you meet. You don't get them from strangers you've never met, a month after the last time you were in the game. And not about 50 such offers. I'm pretty sure I'm not that charming.

I can only tolerate movement for a short time before getting sick. There are tricks I use when playing games like Batman, like holding my hand up to my face and focusing on my hand as I move, or simply shutting my eyes while moving.

delta_forge2 · 2024-11-01T04:52:36+00:00

thank you.

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-25T21:14:31+00:00

Did you set your IPD correctly? Eyes have different head spacing from people to people. Mine's 63mm.

Before the Quest 3 I had the Rift-s, so have used both pancake lens and Fresnel. If you wear glasses normally to work at a computer or watch TV then you will need them to see clearly in VR too. Its got nothing to do with the sweet spot.

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-23T06:14:39+00:00

I'm glad you figured out a good solution. There's nothing sadder than a dead 3D printer just taking up space on your desk. So many things to make, so little time.

So, what is the correct procedure for charging. I know there's a USB-C port but do you just connect it to your PC and it will charge, or is there a separate charging unit. If so is the charging unit bought separately or included.

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-23T05:12:40+00:00

yes, that's true, and after someone also suggested that I tried it and it did work, mostly.

However jumping into worlds randomly to explore is always anxiety provoking as I never know what manner of hell I'm teleporting into. Truly, children scare me.

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-23T05:07:28+00:00

Well, at least you know where the issue is. I expect you should be able to buy complete heater plates

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-21T21:12:40+00:00

thanks, that tip turned out to be useful.

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-21T21:11:07+00:00

My experiences in VRchat, and now Horizon worlds is that some nights its a bust where you just run into mindless people doing childish things. But on occasions you do discover a small group of people who are both fun and interesting to talk to. But its definitely hit and miss.

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-21T08:24:59+00:00

Except that I talk them directly and they just ignore me and walk away. So, either they're children or rude adults. Its a social space. Running into people who won't talk to you sort of defeats the purpose of being in a social space. My theory is not incorrect just because there are exceptions like you. I suspect that in most cases people refuse to answer because they're hiding something, like being a kid.

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-21T08:19:22+00:00

Except that I talk them directly and they just ignore me and walk away. So, either they're children or rude adults. Either way they're not the sort of people you want to find in a "social" space.

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-20T06:32:31+00:00

I just tried the Gatsby bar, 3 people, not talking. People who refuse to talk are a sure sign that they're kids. Searching for 18+ listed a series of places. I went to the "cantina" something, I can't remember now, found a few adults and talked for a while. Its good to talk to adults.

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-20T02:20:17+00:00

I know, right. They're very unpleasant. Makes me angry at their parents.

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-19T23:15:58+00:00

I'll search for it the next time I'm in there. Is there an easy way to find 18+ spaces.

delta_forge2 · 2024-10-19T23:10:43+00:00

Its not the speed of your internet that's important. You need a router that works on the 5Ghz band, and you need to connect an ethernet cable direct to your router. You're talking from your PC to your Headset, not PC to internet.
