Hmm...Should I Be Concerned?

[CallMeKate]

GASP! Just now, I acquired a stalker and got a notification. Good thing I already know she's awesome.

Anybody know how to access who is following you?

You click on members name. Click again to get ‘about’ click on ‘about’ and scroll down. It will show all the people you are following and all the people following you.

It's nothing to be concerned about, it's just a social media thing. It's not like the follower is reading your email or accessing your bank account.

This^^^^^

Thanks for the Info @Rakaia

I checked the 'About' feature in my Profile. I now have 4 people following me. Not really sure what this means but I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

I don't see any "about" feature in my profile.

Click on your user name twice and you’ll see this

Thanks for telling me about the little "trick" of having to click on your name twice to get to it.

I do have some followers! All of them are OK with me except for this one who showed up in March of 2024 and has never posted anything. I have no clue as to who this is. That one is creepy. How do I get rid of him, her, or it?

I have the same question. I don't think you can. It looks to me like only the one who is following you can click the unfollow option, which would remove them.

I have at least 2 who are following me who I don't know, and one of those did it the first day she joined, but then she never returned to post anything else. Some new members who do such things may just be experimenting with the website features. Then, for whatever reason, they move on.

Nothing to worry about, but if a new member follows you — especially one who has only made a couple of posts — it’s usually a spammer. You can report them on their profile pages.

All I can find is a list of who I am following. Seems like we should be able to also see who is following us. Maybe I just don't know how to access it.

In the about section of your profile at the bottom there's a list of following and followers.

 

[Fritz]

You can always block them if it makes you uncomfortable.

@Trade I followed you so go look in your profile in the about section at the bottom. I used to be on here as Marci and saw your posts from before when you had images of Johnny from WKRP. I always enjoyed your posts.

You can see who's following you. If you don't see that list, it means nobody is "tailing" you.
Beezer, as long as he or she can't follow you home, don't worry about it.
