Following a member with or without friendship

Table of Contents

  • Follow a user without friendship
  • Follow a user and request friendship
  • Stop following a user

When you follow someone on the Arm Community, your goal is to get notifications of their activities, rather than messaging. You can follow a user from their user profile by clicking "Follow" on the hover-over of their avatar.

With this feature:

  • You keep track of their activities.
  • The followee is notified when you follow them. This notification is separate from friendship. (For example if you discontinue friendship but do follow, they will receive the notification of the follow.)
  • The following relationship ("x is now following y") is not shown in any Activity Story Stream (site, group, or user).
  • Following doesn't contain an option for private messages.
  • Followers only see a followee's publicly visible actions - like with Twitter.
  • One member can't prevent another community member from following them.

Follow a user without friendship

  1. From the activity stream, content, comment, status message, hover over the user's avatar. (Or navigate to their profile.)
  2. Click Follow.

Follow a user and request friendship

  1. From the activity stream, content, comment, status message, or profile, hover over the user's avatar. 
  2. Click Request friendship.

Note that following is automatic after the friendship is accepted.

Stop following a user

  1. From the activity stream, content, comment, status message, or profile, hover over the user's avatar.
  2. Click Unfollow.
