Blocking Facebook Game Invites

So, you are tired of getting inundated with invites to Facebook games and want people to stop sending them to you…  Well, you have two options:  post a plea asking people to stop (sorry, it’s not going to work) or you can block the invites.

Unfortunately, Facebook has made it a bit harder than it used to be – but you can still do it.  Here’s how:
