If you block someone on Facebook, they can't see anything you post, invite you to events, chat with you, or send you a friend request. Using this is overkill if you just want to stop receiving game invites from someone, as we'll show how to block individual invites in a moment. Keep this option in mind if someone is overly creepy or annoying, though. We have previously detailed how to find out who has blocked you on Facebook. Next is Block Messages , which prevents a friend from contacting you on Facebook Messenger.
Use this if their messages are annoying, but you don't want to fully block them from interacting with your timeline content. The next option is extremely useful if you have a friend who constantly begs you to play a game so they can get more lives or credits.
Enter a friend's name here, and you'll automatically ignore all future app requests from them. This is a good solution if you have one annoying friend who plays lots of games on Facebook. Do you have a friend who invites you to parties and other get-togethers you don't care about? You can block event invites from anyone on your friends list here.
Above, we mentioned how to block app requests from specific people. Further down is the flipside of that option: blocking an entire app, no matter who tries to invite you to it.

You probably won't need this one as much as the others unless you come across an abusive brand page, but it's nice to have the option.
There's one major omission in the above list: stopping page invites on Facebook. Anyone who likes a page can invite their friends to like it as well, and Facebook even encourages you to do this sometimes.

You would think that Facebook might allow you to take some control over invitations, but no. But the good news is that you can, in whack-a-mole style, turn off invitations as they come in, and that person will never be able to invite you again.
