Ask Admin, how to remove someone from follow you (followers)?

[toomuchgrief]

Hi there Sir Admin, sometimes I get random people just click follow me. People that I never engage in a discussion with nor ever came across with in a thread. Just due to privacy reason, I don't want people that I don't know/never engage with to follow my profile.

I have look under Setting and there NO function that would me remove my followers. Not a friend that I follow (following), but someone that follow me (followers).

Please help, and thank you Admin.

And a million times thank you for this site to those like us have a home.

I'd like to know this info, too

I don't think you can. I try and only follow people I've engaged with already and feel comfortable that they wouldn't mind me following them.

 

[Marchioness]

I tried clicking on the OP's profile but it says this user limits people who can see their profile so there has to be some kind of option.

Hi @goddesspyche

Yes, my profile is set to private, but you see when I'm in a thread like this one we in, you can click on my nickname once and it has a button on that left that say Follow. And that how people follow me. I mean I don't like that, especially when we never talk before.

Anyhoo I just wish there an option where you can remove/chose to keep who follow you.

What does the Follow function even mean? I don't understand. Can someone please explain?

Under your profile there's a side scroll thing a little way down. There should be a tab with News Feed I think. That contains a list of posts from people you follow.
I think that's where it is, was looking at it today but I'm on mobile now and I can't find it.

Ok, thank you for the explanation.

Scratch all that!
The scrolly thing is under What's New not your profile.

The actual question is: what is the utility pf following?

Because everything that person says is so awesome, one would not want to miss a word. :)

But you are not warned of the posts of the people you follow

See the conversation above between @Epsilon0 and @Underscore.

Maybe you are referring "Block" button, that let's you choose individually the users you want to keep them from following you.
Or maybe more like a "Select the group you want to share your info with" feature, such as "Public", or "People I follow", or "None".
Or perhaps you want to remain anonymous altogether? Like an imageboard type of fashion.

There is an ignore button so that you don't see the posts of those you ignore and are not notified when they mention you or react to your posts. I am not aware of a block button on the forum where you can keep them from seeing what you post or being able to follow you. Is there such a function on this forum?

No, I was trying to say that, if such a feature were to be implemented, it might be identified as a block button.
Just trying to figure out what OP is really looking for.

 

[toomuchgrief]

I don't want to block anyone. I never engage with them so what is there to block. It just I'm not comfortable with people I never engage/talk with just click follow me out of no where. I just hope there is a button where you can remove a follower/followers. Like a list and you have a remove button to keep who in the follower list.

Anyhoo, no Admin answer, I guess there is no option to remove a follower then.

Why not send a polite message to explain you are not comfortable with them following you as you've never talked or engaged before.

make sure to send any followers u dont want my way

 

[not-2-b-the-answer]

I don't follow anyone... It's nothing personal to anyone on here. I don't want anyone to think I'm creepy or stalking them.
