following / being followed by people in your profile area

[Spinney]

Yep ... My memory is closer to 4 minutes!!

I can offer Mr Summerdays multiple cups of tea... He only gets about half of them.... And sometimes teases me that he is still waiting for the previous cup....

And you expect me to remember 4 years?

Maybe it's time to change your avatar?

I take a great interest in following people I find interesting and intelligent.

I have absolutely no idea who anybody is on this site.

The follow function was originally developed in order to facilitate the formation of self-congratulatory backslapping cliques, as it was decided there were not enough of these on the internet. It makes it simple to piggy back onto somebody elses argument in order to demonstrate your most excellent cleverness to all your chums. With just a few clicks you have access to all the flame wars and nit-picking occurring in your chosen group so you can join in the action without having to read all that tedious filler that clogs up the rest of the forum.

Also, by looking at your profile, other people can see your list of followers and followees so they can be in no doubt where your allegiances lie, should they find themselves in the mood for a bit of online argy-bargy.

I didn't forget! It was when I told you to stop following me because it's creepy, was it really four years ago?
Actually newer look at my news feed either, now @winjim gave me ideas

Uhh, I cannae really be bothered investigating members.
The only time I would click recent activity is if somebody I like has not posted for a while.

I had to stop following you, @summerdays because I was dazzled by the awesomeness of this incredibly useful feature.

 

[summerdays]

Were you following me... ? I've forgotten to look at it since last night.... I'm just so used to looking at alerts and New Posts!

 

[Dogtrousers]

Yes, I stalked you for a bit. But then became incredibly bored Sorry.

Keep up at the back we are not talking about following on Strava, this is CC following.
