"Member Following" Replaces "Friending" On Nairaland by Seun(m): 7:55pm On May 31, 2012

I recently announced our "member following" feature, which lets you instantly follow any Nairaland member you fancy without waiting for her approval. I'm pleased to inform you that the "member following" feature has now replaced the former "friendship" feature. You can't add people as "friends" anymore, but you can follow them with or without their permission. When the people you're following post new topics on Nairaland, those topics will instantly be added to your list of "followed topics".

Before this update, you could only send e-mails to moderators and your friends. Now, you can freely send e-mails to moderators and people following you. We also have a new protocol for anonymous e-mail sending, which you'll soon notice. What do you think?

Good, good for recon(stalking is too strong). But i'll like a feature that will enable me to continue from the page that contains my latest post on a thread, and not start from page zero.

If you're following a topic, you'll see an blue/orange icon after it when it's updated. Click the icon to go to the next post.

Seun i got a message telling me that someone on NL wants to send me an email but is not connected so i should contact him by replying the email i got.

Is that the protocol for the anonymous email you are talking about?

Last night i was having difficulties with receiving PMs or e-mails as you now call it, i thought it was from my end and didnt know a "restructuring" of the site was on...

i also noticed last night that i couldnt find the add as friend button anymore.

the fact that anybody can send me an e-mail just by following me...i dont think i like the idea.

Would you be able to know who is following you or better put, will people you are following know you are following them?
I think its a pretty good idea! More community, less anonymity.

Aggressive stalking u mean?

Having said that, I reckon the new 'member following' feature is much berra than the ''friendship'' feature.

Yes. The "Followers" link on the header shows you all your followers so you can view their profiles and follow them back.

Nobody has access to your email address, not even moderators. Followers cannot even PM you directly, unless you follow them back.
