My 'Favorite' People ??

I know I can Follow People.

Is there a place where I can see a List of the People I have chosen to follow?

I have looked all over the Your Stuff page and all its variations

AND

chosen the People link (top right of the page) - that seemed like a logical spot for a Following choice - Nope

The People page is useless to me... suggesting I might like two pages worth of random folks? It seems kind of like a Blind Date Match Dot Com place. They are probably very nice People, somehow picked by the SiteWare as possible Matches, but I don't do Blind Dates.

The value in having such a Favorite(Following) People place might be if I wanted to see my Buddies' recent activity, one by one. In other words, see what each had been interested in lately

Was there something like this in the OldSite? I am too newly returned to know many specifics of the OldSite. I was just getting familiar with it when, BOOM, I find myself transported here

Where else is there to look?

It occured to me that I might find like minds if I checked out the "Likes" list on a particular thread. (Click the number - "23" for instance in the "Likes" column on a main list - or in parenteses at the foot of each Reply when perusing the thread - Likes (23) - Next to the [Reply] link.

This invokes the Shadowbox Image/Window feature. - The whole page is screened and a Window with a thumbnail list of Users appears.

Only thing is, there is only 5 in the list, with no way to see more - no arrow, no Page numbers, no "Load More" - just this from on the main list window:

Be a neat deal if there was only 1-5 Likers

I can't test the Reply Likes because I can't find a Reply that has more than 3 likes.

This would help me find like minds but not with keeping track of my Pals

Buenos noches

Is there an option just to mark users to have the opportunity asking again in the future ?

Not to follow ... In case of a future issue , to have (my self) recommend user to reply ...

If I understand the question properly that is what "Following" does, it marks other users. Me, I just visit the iPad and Using ASC Forums to see if there is someone I can help.

Or do you mean bookmark ? You can always bookmark answers you find useful then in the future if someone has a similar question you can copy/paste a link to that thread. It's considered good form if you credit the person your linking to. Like this, "See rony z's answer in the link below."

You have helped me in the past, so here I am trying to offer help to you. Sorry it took so long for me to reply, but I didn't notice this post when you made it on 6/23. I didn't notice your question until today when you posted about the "crystal ball". I know I am only a level 1, but based on the questions I have asked here, I have met individuals who have knowledge I don't. I have chosen to follow those users. I click on their name and select follow. Then when I click on my username at the top of the page under Apple Support Communities, my profile appears. At that point I click on 'view profile'. That is when I select "people". This is where I am able to view all the people I am following. You are right. If I go to the top of the page where the word "Apple Support Communities" appears with my user name beneath those words and click on "people", a list of random users I have no desire to meet appears. Select your user name and click on view profile. Then select people. Now you will be able to view all the individuals you have followed. Hope this helps. I didn't do screen shots here as I do not want my info appearing within this answer.

One day you'll find a need for a screenshot and want to blur your info. May I recommend the Skitck app. The link below is for IOS but I think they have a OS version too.

Skitch - Snap. Mark Up. Send. by Evernote

Like this.

Thanks for the info. I appreciate the suggestion. ChitlinsCC taught me how to do a screen shot, now I know how to blur info I don't want the world to see. Thanks again for the help. I do love all the information I acquire at this site. Thanks to everyone who has helped me learn my new computer. 😉

You're welcome. Glad to help. You're wise not wanting the world to see your personal info. What happens is somebody will post a screenshot with personal info. It gets reported. Then the hosts delete the screenshot. Making all your hardwork for naught.
