friending people should always have some kind of filter, that filter is friend codes, and it works for me

The concept is nice, the problem it's that those friend codes are too long. Having an username is so much better, I can just type "DieAppleDie" and add you, no need to type 12 digits.   

Well, there's the conflict a lot of people have with usernames.  Many of the ones they want are taken.  So then someone has to make theirs Icantthinkofausername153195139591 or something (exaggeration).
