Followers being deleted

February 5th, 2014
I believe this has happened to some people on the site before and I am aware of this happening twice to me now but some of my followers seem to be deleted from following me without them knowing. 2 of my followers have had to re-follow me and thought I wasn't posting because it wasn't showing up in their feed. Is this happening to anyone else?

yes it seems to happen to me too...ive been deleted from certain and have to refollow them....strange....

@cocobella Its really strange, I have all the emails in a folder of who follows me (sad isn't it) so I know how many times some have had to re-follow.

I use to go to the "browse later" just to be aware of new talent ;)......and sometimes have the surprise to have to follow people i thought i was already following...and it's always very interesting to see shots from people we don't follow...

This has happened to me a few times as well. Any insights @scrivna?

@mzzhope Good idea to ask.

Happens to me sometimes and, what's worse, I sometimes don't realize it. I think that peple are just off on hols for a week or two. It always works out OK in the end though.

@swilde Thanks Sue, glad it isn't only me. There must be a glitch somewhere.

It's happened to me a couple of times already and I've only been here 5 weeks! I've also had a problem with one of my followers, in that whenever she Favs one of my photos, I get the confirmation e-mail but the Fav never shows up in the stats - anyone else had this one?

@vignouse Hi Richard, thanks for responding, I appreciate it. Have you asked your follower whether she actually pressed the Fav button because when that has happens to me I sometimes ask and then they say they forgot to do it? But if you get a confirmation email then one would have thought that they pressed the Fav button. Another one for Ross @scrivna I think.

@elaine55 Yes I checked that... and the e-mail, as you suggest, confirms that the button had been pressed. Be nice to get an answer to this - both Favs and followers are too precious to lose!

I've also had this problem, Richard. Not sure why?
February 5th, 2014
I know of hundreds of people who should be following me but aren't... strange. ;)

@vignouse it may not show up in your stats right away because of the time zone differences or something about the definition of "today". I'll have people fav my pics but the stats won't show up until the system updates @juliedduncan

@grizzlysghost maybe the turtles took them away :-)

@hippiechick13 Always those darned turtles! :)

@juliedduncan @hippiechick13 No, it's not that - I've been patient, but theu just don't show-up... period!

@grizzlysghost You're goofy! ;)

@vignouse - I have a couple of followers who regularly say fav and it doesn't register. I just let it go - figure they mean to 'fav' and don't hit the button. The sentiment is nice, though. :-)

@elaine55 - Elaine - yes yes yes - I was looking at a pic on the pp recently wondering how I missed an amazing shot and realized I wasn't following the person any longer - seems I am missing feed from several. Interesting!

I just noticed that both my followers and those I follow number has gone done from yesterday. I suppose, of course, that this one person just decided to leave. However, I have one specific follower who has had to re-follow me at least twice because they some how get deleted.

@mej2011 @jankoos @vignouse @grizzlysghost @hippiechick13 @juliedduncan Thank you all so much for responding to my post, glad its not only me. We will wait to say what Ross says.
