The Block Friends feature is just as important as the Add Friends feature on Need for Speed World, as well as any game with a social networking platform. This is because some users can prove to be a nuisance, seeking to use the NFSW platform to cause menace rather than for entertainment. For this reason, if you wish to block a fellow user for any reason at all, EA has provided an easy-to-use feature you can use to achieve the same.
