Late to the party and all that but maybe I don't know... turn off the battle.net chat or whispers if you don't want to converse with people on your 'friends list'. I know that's a hassle.
No, i want it because when i tell my friends or people online to fuck off and not talk to me, they dont understand that i really mean fuck off and i want to be left alone.
You sound bitter.

Some people just don't respect DND. Sometimes you just wanna play and do your own thing without the guild messaging you asking you to drop everything for whatever, or worse they ask people they know who are on your friends list to relay the message and your friend does it cause they don't want the guild to look down on you. And so what was just a fun little play time without stress or hassle is now you running peoples alts through SM or whatever cause you have a rep for being the guy that does that kind of thing.
Oh sure, you can kick anyone who does this off your friends list but that could cause conflicts irl, plus really, it's not worth fighting or losing friends over. Just being able to appear offline for a few hours while you enjoy some peace and quiet fixes all that.
Then you need a little more experience in real life. I have that problem, if I try and make a char on a different server to the one my guild is on for a break. one or two people always follow me, make chars on that server to be able to stay close. They are nice lads and helpful but sometimes I wish they would leave me alone. I am an old lady, their honorary grandmother but sometimes I want to be free of them. If I was to remove them from my friends list and change email so they could not track me they would be very upset. I do not want to upset them, but a couple of free hours a week would be wonderful.

And then they will be upset because you are ignoring them, great idea.
With the amount of flaming in this thread and with the OP banned (and due to the content of the opening post), I'm closing this.
