Hi David,

I also cringed at the usage.   English is a malleable language, but ouch!  They should have put quotes around "favorited," IMO.

In a way, the new feature is an invasion of privacy.  Are you keen to have a stranger come up to you and say, "I'm going to watch everything you do."  The operative word here is "stranger;"   someone who hasn't introduced himself.  As though they feel entitled, unbidden, to sit in on your life/work, and tell you they're there.  Especially when they may not say one word. 

People will do that.  Stalkers will do that.  I'd rather Renderosity not bring it to my attention and tell me who  they are and that they're lurking.  Do please tell if one of them has a gun, yes, but...
