Why cut out the middle man when you can get right to the source of the problem? On the off-chance someone notices I'm missing from their network I accept their invite again, wait a few days and then delete them again.

Facebook never said that. None of their documentation ever said that. In any case, as Josue and Andrew said, there is an easy solution. Just block the app. It can't send you invites, AND it can't access any of your information. I don’t know where you got the idea that rejecting an invitation blocked that app from further invites.

Let's say I get an invite from App X. Before I click deny I click on the link in that invite that'll take me to the app's description page (I open it in a new tab). From there I can block the app permanently. Then I go back to the original invite and deny. I haven't seen a bit of vampire, werewolf, fun wall, or hotness nonsense for a long time. =) I too think there’s an invitation overload, but I do have a solution that works very well for me.
