"Friend Codes"?

Comes with version 2.2

It's nice to see that a feature (a bad one IMO, but it's only MY opinion - OGame should keep some random features, like where the main planet is set) is implemented without any discussion... So what is Origin role here? Only to provide "bad french guys" with the feeling of proposing something interesting will never be implemented? Knowing in advance that it will be rejected since it was not proposed by the right people, i.e. WTH or his friends (who seems not knowing anything about the game, but has a lot of friends in GF)?

I'm really upset, not to say more.

Implemented in v2.2.x
