Anyone care to elaborate on this forum phenomenon?
Like those who run it for example.
Send the them a message.
It might have been inadvertent.
Well, unless there is some random rogue system software creating profiles and automatically linking with your profile, I will assume there is actually a person who created the profile and clicked 'follow', unless I'm a completely neurotic technophobe, which I may well be, I think 'cyberspace' is quite bizarre.
That does sound strange. Is there really someone there though? You should establish whether it's a real person or just your mind playing tricks.
Yes, that's how it feels to me, if someone was following me around outside listening and watching everything I was saying, that's how I'd feel, it just feels uncomfortable, knowing someone is 'following me'.
Stalker?
ah, that makes some sense, ok, so my stalker is 'new' then or has been lurking around for a while and thought, hmm...this looks like a target!
Oh yes one gets a 'conversation starter' badge when one introduces oneself also. Designed to foster interaction I imagine. Probably it's the default setting of the software.
Nothing wrong with that.
I am not in charge here, but a mad guess would be that 70% of members are inactive. So if you have just signed in that immediately makes you a thirtypercenter because you have done something as opposed to nothing like the 70% part time casuals.
