Every day we log in to Facebook and find the ball in the upper right corner with a red number indicating several notifications of new interactions with friends. So we think we are popular people and receive many comments or messages and instead, after clicking on the notifications, we find only annoying requests to use applications and games, invitations to events or to like the fan pages that do not interest.
Well, this happens to everyone and there is no way to avoid it.
Sometimes it's not even the fault of friends because it is the games themselves that push invitations, perhaps in exchange for a few more points.
Although there is no button to disable requests and invitations from games and applications, let 's see what can be done to receive notifications of this type as little as possible .

But since this is a complete general list it is difficult to filter and it is better to see things individually.
Go to the Application Center to check all requests received from games and apps.

As for event invitations, it is not possible to block them.
The only way to decrease these requests in notifications is to reject recurring events and prevent friends from inviting us again.
This can be done on the Events Calendar page.
Click on the button at the top of the Invitations which shows the red number of the events to be answered and reject them all.
On the page of requests from fan pages there is the entire list of pages to which you have been invited.
For each of them you can press Ignore .
From Facebook settings you can also go to the Block tab to check or add blocked people.
Blocked people will no longer be able to send us requests from applications or even invite us to events.
On the same page you can check the list of blocked applications and games and add new ones by name.
