Earlier, I showed you a method to get rid of your Facebook friends who don't play Mafia Wars
(1). One of the problems in doing this is you are left with a lot of mafia members who are no longer your Facebook friends. Zynga does have a link to remove them but it's less than ideal. You can only use it once every 48 hours and half the time it doesn't work properly. I attempted to do this after removing over 1,000 Facebook friends. You can see I have 5,371 in my mafia and only 1 non-friend was removed. I won't be able to try again for 2 days.
I don't have to wait for Zynga to improve this feature because Team Spockholm has updated the Mafia Manager to do it better. I can run it whenever I want and it's way more effective. To get rid of your non-friends, follow the instructions below.
1. Run the Mafia Manager by Team Spockholm. For instructions on using this tool, go
here. You will notice a "in mafia not friends" category has been added.
2. Click on "in mafia not friends" and you will get a list of all of your mafia members who aren't your Facebook friends. Find the link above the list that says "Remove all non-friends from mafia" and click on it. Mafia Manager will remove them for you.
4. Wait for the run to finish. You can watch it do it's thing and there is a countdown. I had 2,553 non-friend mafia members so it took awhile. If you already removed the person since your last Mafia Manager scan, it will say "failed". When the person is successfully removed from your mafia, it will say "removed" in green.
It's cool to watch and see everybody being removed.
5. When the run is finished, it will say "remaining: 0". Close it out and check on your numbers.
The fun part is to look at your number of mafia members and compare it to what you had before.
Now I have a clean recruit box and pending invites page. My game runs faster without all the dead weight as well.
I was so thrilled with my results, I had to run a
Stats History (also by Team Spockholm) and look at them in a different way. It would have taken a very long time to do this the Zynga way!
You'll still want to review those people that it says are no longer your friends. I've had 3 people listed there that are still friends.

ReplyDeleteSounds like someone needs there mouth washed out with soap. Another pimple faced kid who cant get a date and has no friends. All you can do is hide behind your monitor and try to make others feel bad so you can make your own pitiful self feel good.
ReplyDeleteif you don't like the tool don't use it, kinda simple isn't it? Do the world a favor and wash your mouth out with buckshot
ReplyDeleteIts sad to see the levels that some people go to when they complain about somebody decent helping out with this game, if they dont like MW Loot lady, then why bother even reading the blog, they are only fooling themselves. Its just sad, like they're life....
ReplyDeleteThe tool works great for me. People who are jealous will make hateful comments because it's the only way for them to get some attention. Kid of funny. The automated portion of this tool is a life saver for those of us with big mafias. I'd rather delete a few that shouldn't be then let thousands just sit there because I don't have time to check them out. Most people who have issues aren't making their inactivity time frame long enough.
ReplyDeleteI have run this program many times and it keeps saying "No snapshots saved yet". Am I doing something wrong?
ReplyDeleteYou have to save a snapshot. Click on snapshot and wait for it to save. For Mafia Manager, you need to load your mafia pages. It takes a while to do that.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the notes about this bookmarklet. I have run it on my account and it seems to work a treat. I just wish that there was a way to add all the people that are not currently members of my mafia without having to send individual requests.
ReplyDeleteCant take the heat!! you and your rose colored glasses!!
ReplyDeleteREPORT THIS PAGE TO ZYNGA FOR PROMOTING BLACK MARKET ITEMS!!!
ReplyDeleteI followed instructions to remove nonfriends from mafia as I have over 2300 mafia in my family. I loaded mafia and saved snap shot, then I clicked remove nonfriends from mafia. It generated a huge list. However, I recognized some names and clicked one by one. Most were still FB friends with me, and some active mafia members. Did not use the marklet to clear these people. I'm not sure if I am doing something wrong, or if there is a glitch in the marklet. I was running it from chrome. Any thoughts are appreciated.
ReplyDeleteBTW, Love ya, Jen!!!! Keep up the awesome work!!
I ran this bookmark and most of the numbers it ran are still my friends... Check before you use it.
ReplyDeleteI just ran it and apparently, I don't have any FB freinds... it listed everyone in my Mafia as a non-friend...oops
