I git a message I am being "followed" by another member

[horseless carriage]

Lordy have not heard that tune in 50 yrs !!!!!!

Another of his songs is quite appropriate as well.

 

[Kaila]

No. It just means you could go to a certain place in your own member page, and click on their name, to bring up their recent posts. That is all.

You're right about the newsfeed, if I follow someone and click on Newsfeed, it will show their latest content.

Gosh, I apologize, for my mistake! I had no idea that list, is called a Newsfeed.
That shows how much I utilize it. (I don't.

 

[Kaila]

Well, if I follow someone, their posts do not show up as Alerts for me. That is what I thought was meant, and people often think this, but it doesn't work that way, at least not for me!

 

[Gaer]

He or she is following me too. Must just be someone with good taste! hahaha!

 

[SeaBreeze]

Gosh, I apologize, for my mistake! I had no idea that list, is called a Newsfeed.
That shows how much I utilize it. (I don't.

I don't see a Newsfeed link on this forum, maybe I'm missing it or we don't have one, like I said I never use it but have tried it on another forum in the past.

 

[Kaila]

@hawkdon
I forgot to say that when others are following you, then you are supposed to provide all the coffee and cake and cookies.
Thank you, from all of us!

 

[Kaila]

I don't see a Newsfeed link on this forum,

You were the one who said yes, and called it a newsfeed, and I believed you.

 

[Kaila]

That was why I had apologized. So now I apologize for my apology!

 

[katlupe]

click on your own name and you'll see whose following you..

I just did. One was a member for one day and never came back. And the other one has not been back since May. I follow many more than follow me but I don't care.

 

[Kaila]

I just got a notification that I am being followed by a new member "Susan755"

Is that person or thing, still following you, now?
Are they still following any others of you?

 

[katlupe]

Is that person or thing, still following you, now?
Are they still following any others of you?

No, her name is not on my list. Maybe she is not on here anymore. Her profile was hidden.

 

[Kaila]

We didn't get a chance to say good-bye?

Very strange, @Marie5656 !
How about we ask @Matrix to check out your OP, for this thread, and that last post of yours, #38.

I had that too!

 

[SeaBreeze]

I don't think that's on our individual profile pages. At the top of the forum home page it says Members, in the dropdown you can see Current Visitors (to the forum in general), some are members, some guests, some bots like from google. Common on all forums.

 

[MickaC]

Got a notification the other day that i was being followed by a person.......don't remember, who, what, where, why.
Can't find it now.....maybe it was the same person that some of you are mentioning.

 

[timoc]

Be careful what you wish for Hawkdon.....now Tish is following you, now I am following you.....you may wind up with a lot of followers

"Follow?" "No, I'll just keep my beady eyes on you lot."

 

[Marie5656]

Well..not gonna lose much sleep over it. Oh well

 

[SeaBreeze]

Well..not gonna lose much sleep over it. Oh well

Don't worry Marie, I got your back!

 

[Geezerette]

Thanks Marie for bringing up this topic. Made me go to my privacy settings and become as private as possible. No offense to our fine regular posters, But there are scammers constantly trying to poke into forums, Facebook etc and try to befriend oldsters for gain.

 

[Gardenlover]

Susan is stalking me as well.

 

[Shero]

Maybe this "Susan" is not female !!

 

[FastTrax]

Social media forum following of a female member in good standing without permission is a first degree violation of the internet felonious stalkery laws.

Susan doesn't like me.
