QoL: "Inactivate This Contact"

There are a myriad of threads all having to do with "let me get this contact out of my Active tab" for various reasons. Already done the Hallows a million times, don't want Officer Whatshisname in my list for the next 10 levels. Done the AE tour a million times, same thing. Etc., etc., etc.

Every different reason winds up needing a different solution. One solution that would, I'm pretty sure, solve all of them would be to have a button on the info tab for each contact that lets you "Inactivate This Contact" if the contact is in your Active tab or "Activate This Contact" if the contact is in your Inactive tab. By level 30 I always have a ton of contacts that I've outleveled but are still in my Active tab because they want to introduce me to other contacts that I've already outleveled and so on. The only way to clear them is to not only do whatever weak mish they tell you to do (sometimes they skip this part) but also to accept all their friends into your contacts list. It's a never-ending stream of useless.

By letting us shunt these to the Inactive tab when we want to, as opposed to whenever the system determines they're no longer applicable, we can use the Active contacts tab for what the name implies: contacts with whom we are actively involved.

I've been begging for this forever so I know either I'm alone in wanting it, it's so low a priority it'll never make schedule, or there are specific Dev reasons for not wanting it to be included. I feel I must ("it's a moral imperative!") come back here every once in a while to bring it back up, however, so here I am.

Who's with me?

Fantastic idea.

Sure. I have contacts I hate seeing clutter up my list. However, if the contact is still a valid contact (For example, you move a 20-30 contact off the list at 22, and now you're 29, or the contact goes to 50, so you can't outlevel them), then there should be a button to bring them back to the Active list.

I'd love to be able to kick the Architect Manager to my inactive list. /signed.

Would love to see this in the game.
