hi kids....

I was chafing at how I was unable to 'like' a post and send encouragement for taking the time to add thoughts to the conversation or to start a dialogue.

So I chafed several times and then like in so many forums and sites I realised I could simply follow the poster. I started thinking of how to build out form that because hundreds and hundreds of people can simply follow someone so what I need is a *** way to use my 'following' list to 'see' those I follow ***.

In another well meaning but built from ideological scratch site the DM's are totally absent as are other 'features' of robust chatting I simply made a list of all those who liked my posts and did a clumsy "@" list workaround for something I wanted people to notice or to chime in on. As the follows went up people asked to be removed because they saw things several times :) Now I might tag a couple of interested parties.

I'm afraid there is also a ratio - 1/10/100/1000 etc of participation by users. 

Anyway, away for five years, complete n00b again, but have my purchases and Poser 12 upgrade, lost my old files (I think I may have missing drives (did I ever tell you the story about dumping my water through the top of my computer while it was running).
