Inviting many players to your Bedrock Realm causes unintentional spam-inviting
I have been experiencing a major bug in the inviting system that has been causing it to spam invite may players when trying to invite a lot of players at once. I have found this out because I have had multiple people DM me on Xbox Live saying to stop spam inviting them.
Steps to Reproduce
- Own a Minecraft Realm for Bedrock
- Have dozens of friends that aren't currently invited to the realm
- Press the edit button besides your Realm and press "Manage Realm"
- Go to the "Members" tab and scroll to the "Friends" section
- Start clicking the "Invite" button once on different players really fast
Observed Results (reported by invitees)
Multiple invitations are received.
Expected Result
Only a single invitation is sent / received by each friend.

Inviting many players to your Bedrock Realm causes unintentional spam-inviting
So, Some People have a Minecraft Realm on Bedrock Edition and like to invite hundreds of players to then to become a popular server owner. I, in fact, am one and I have been experiencing a major bug in the inviting system that has been causing it to spam invite may players when trying to invite a lot of players at once. I have found this out because I have had multiple people DM me on Xbox Live saying to stop spam inviting them even though I wasn't ..but I was. Here is how to reproduce:
-Own a Minecraft Realm for Bedrock
-Have dozens of friends that aren't currently invited to the realm
-Press the Edit button by your Realm and press "Manage Realm"
-Go to the "Members" tab and Scroll to the "Friends Section"
Start Clicking the "Invite" Button Once on Different Players. This will spam invite them
I tried to go through the bugs and see if this was already reported, and I found nothing. I do not want to be the dude known for spam inviting, so I have stopped inviting players efficiently and has made my realm kinda dead, so it would be amazing if this was patched. Thank you.

Hi
Does this issue still occur after updating to 1.19.73?
This ticket will automatically reopen when you reply.
Yes, from what I have tested with an alt account. I think I have forgotten to mention, though, that the bug only occurs when you start clicking the "Invite" button once on different players really fast, like how I showcase in this short clip: Minecraft 2023-04-22 18-12-40.mp4
. Sorry for the confusion as from what I know there has never been any issue inviting players to your Realm slowly.
Hi
Can you please ask one of your members to record how does this issue look from his perspective?

Well, I tested it with an alt account, and I can confirm that it is spam inviting like how you'd expect. I uploaded a new file: alt_footage.mp4
. It shows both ends (me inviting and the other receiving invites). I hope this helps!
Note: When I clicked "Invite" on VariableBat7544 (my alt), it took me back to the "Invited Friends" section. Just in case it looked confusing at first.
