Favs

October 3rd, 2011
Sometimes people will say they've faved one of my pics, but I guess they forget to do it. Does it happen to you? Do you let it go or do you try to say something? I am just curious. I just let it go.
October 3rd, 2011
That has happened to me also...I've gotten to where I appreciate the thought and the intent of the person "FAV"-ing. Calling it to their attention could create an awkward situation. But - to your point, I know the strange feeling you get when you read "FAV", only there's no FAV!
October 3rd, 2011
Yep i noticed it on a couple of occasions ,either they forget to tick the fav tab,or they don't realize they have to actually fav it by actually clicking on the fav tab...But on the other hand i will see one of my pics has been fav'd more than the number of visitors that have actually noted a fav ..so we have some anonymous faving.
I like to thank every one who actually posted a fav but if i cant see who it was i just do a blanket thanks...for the undocumented fav i still thank them

It's happened to me about 3 times. One of the times I nicely said something, but I felt icky afterwards. If I meant to fave and didn't though, I would want to know...tricky situation....if I ever say FAVE and then didn't, please tell me!

@steeler If you're an ACE member, you can see who fav'ed your pictures!

I've had this happen a time or two. I appreciate the intent, but don't dwell on it.
October 3rd, 2011
Yeah, it happens occasionally, I don't worry too much about it - but if I ever forget to hit that fav button after saying "fav!" - Tell me!!! I don't mind:)

I'm always in shock (a happy shock) when someone says my picture is a fav. Sometimes I check my stats but most times I don't. I just thank the person for their enthusiasm and vote of confindence because I really believe it's the thought that counts.
October 3rd, 2011
yeah i have but i always say something if its a everyday follower normaly with a bit of ribbing and friendly banter :D
October 3rd, 2011
I have had this happen to me too, but I just take it as a huge compliment and know they intended to click the fav, but just forgot.
October 3rd, 2011
Haha! Funny thing. It probably happened to me too. But since I do not pay much attention to the fav I wouldn't know for sure :-) A bit like Ann H. mentioned above... @olivetreeann
October 3rd, 2011
If I ever forget to hit the fav, please tell me!!! My mind wnaders a little! :0)
October 3rd, 2011
I've had it happen a few times too! But I just let it go (although I certainly wouldn't be offended by anyone who came back to remind if I forget to click the fav!)
October 3rd, 2011
I have not noticed one way or the other, but with an ace account you get an email that says who faved it.
October 3rd, 2011
interesting thread. If I fav a pic of someone who is an ace member, I almost never mention that I've fav'd it, as I just assume they read the stats and know.

October 3rd, 2011
Seems like most people let it go. If I forget to click the fav button after I say I've faved something, please let me know. I would have no problem with that.
October 3rd, 2011
Yeah, it happens. I just forget about it.
October 3rd, 2011
I usually write my comments first, so it's possible that I forgot to click the fave button. if it ever happens, tell me - i'll go back and do it right!
October 3rd, 2011
I've had that happen too. It's all good though!
October 3rd, 2011
A couple of times I have faved a photo, then written my comment and forgetting I had already faved the picture, clicked again which actually "un-faved" it! Fortunately I got a message asking if I meant to do that. Maybe that happened to others and they didn't see the final message.
October 3rd, 2011
What gets me is when they fav but dont comment ...lol... thats happened more than once with mine; perhaps they are just shy ((o;
October 3rd, 2011
I have had it a few times too,but my comp crashed the other day as i was faving & it didnt work.The lass told me & i knew why straight away.I was not bothered that she told me as it was worth the Fav x
October 3rd, 2011
Oh sure--sometimes you really have to click on that Fave button twice (: But I agree with @steveh I don't get when somebody Faves but doesn't leave a comment. Or doesn't Follow you, but Faves AND doesn't leave a comment. ?? Like, hello? Um, nice to meet you???
October 3rd, 2011
Yep. It's happened to me as well :) I don't sweat it. I'm just happy someone thought it!
October 3rd, 2011
Happens all the time. :+)
October 3rd, 2011
It happens. I'm sure I've done it before too.
October 3rd, 2011
I don't always leave a comment when I FAV because that is the comment in my opinion...but if I write FAV I do remember to FAV -- sometimes by the time I get to someone's awesome photo there are 500 other comments on it that are going to say the same thing as me so I think FAV'ing it alone is good enough.
October 3rd, 2011
Yeah happens to me all the time, but they also forget to say fav too ;)
October 3rd, 2011
It happens to me all of the time. I just try to take it as a compliment and then an oversight. I wouldn't sweat it too much. =)
October 3rd, 2011
I know that on a couple of occasions - I have definitely fav'd about 2-5 photos in a session but when it came to picking my Favourite Fav of the week (I should have at least 5-10) - I would have one or nothing. Since then, to make sure, once I have fav'd a pic, I go straight to my FAV's and check that it's there.
October 4th, 2011
Sometimes I've clicked 'fav' on a photo, but the click sometimes doesn't register, so I have to click it again. Maybe some of us don't notice that the pic hasn't actually been faved when we click it?

And yeah, I have comments that say they've faved it without the actual fav... but I don't really mind because their comment tells me enough :)
October 4th, 2011
Guilty. I sometime click on the fav button but don't leave a comment. Makes me want to go through my favs and make sure I leave a comment.
October 4th, 2011
I almost never say when I've faved something because I thought everyone got the emails!
October 4th, 2011
I would not follow up on someone to tell them, but I also am with those above who say that if I say "fav" and then forgot to hit the button, please tell me. Because when I fav a pic, it is to look at again and again, so if I forget, I won't see it again. So tell me if I do that.
October 4th, 2011
whenever it happens to me ...
i just ignore it ...
any way ...
its not a big deal for me ...
hehe ... =)
October 4th, 2011
@steeler I'm always an anonymous fav-er.
October 4th, 2011
@espyetta Exactly! I mainly fave so that I can see the photo and admire it again.

Sometimes I FAVE and just type FAVE as the comment...as in need I say more? Especially if they already have a lot of comments. :-)
October 4th, 2011
I'm another one who doesn't often say if I fave something because I know the ace accounts know.
October 5th, 2011
Yup, happens all the time! I've probably been guilty of the same--oops! I'm just thrilled anyone actually take the time to even look, let alone comment. ;-)
October 5th, 2011
@johnnyfrs Oh that is funny!! Happens to me as well!! ;)

Seriously, it has happened, I just appreciate the time they give me in looking and commenting. It takes time and I know everyone is busy! If by chance, I say fav and forget, make sure to tell me!!! :) I fav so I can go back and look again, and I also fav for my kids,, they know what they like and want to see again too!!
October 5th, 2011
yes..happens so much...all the time... :)
October 5th, 2011
If I do it, please let me know. I'm so forge.................
October 5th, 2011
@steveh Hands up! I've done that to one of your pictures! But it's because my silly computer won't let me comment sometimes (randomly) It comes up witha messge saying 'invalid media' and after about 3 times of trying I give up!
