I know i should have gone to the admin about this , but i feel i would like to know if i am alone on this . Whenever i click suggest it shows a lot of my followers even from long ago. I can't see from them the new ones i just followed like, Lady Duck , my friend from Bubblews . When i clicked following she was there . Can't it be that when you click suggest it would show the "following " because anyway they are the active ones at the moment . My thoughts . . . .

You aren't the only one that encountered it .I always go to" following "to see what post they have started.

Truthfully I preferred it when we got notifications in our e-mail when a friend started a new post and even better was the option to not get notifications because some I wanted still as friends, but they posted so much, it filled my inbox.

I find it tedious though to suggest to followers since they are numerous . But as of now i only choose the active ones here again . As to notifications at our email we can customize that here by going to settings if the notifications .

@SIMPLYD No, that only customizes if someone interacts with you, not your friend's posts. On the old MyLot I could go to each friend's setting and either get notified when they start a post, or opt out.

This happens to me too but I don't bother as I am still not able to be on here for as long as I would like. So I do not post often. Annoying though

I am marking this for @myLot Bugs as I too feel the same way. We should be able to suggest to those who we are following too.

You confused me allover again, when I was trying to understand and getting to know things a bit more question like these make my job even harder. I would prefer to explorer as much as I must and let the rest come in due course.

Followers are those that follows you but not necessarily your following . Following are those that you followed . In my followers list i can see all the mylotters from below who also became my following .

I have only tried to use it one time and I wish they would just let us search for who ever we want to include.

I haven't try out the suggest feature yet, so I didn't know how it does. Thank you for showing me that. Perhaps it's a good suggestion to the development team.

It's a nice feature i must admit . But then , it will be so tedious if you have lots of followings . So maybe putting all our posts as to the time they were submitted would make it be known to all that you also posted a new one .

it is hard for me to share the posts since there are too many followers of mine from ancient times I have to check list only the member who still active here and it is not fun to scroll down loooong enough since mostly I used tablet when I active here perhaps this featured advised me politely to switch to my cpu

Actually i too have lots of followers from long ago . I have to scroll down a bit long to choose from them who were active now. I am glad i have a picturesque mind because i can easily spot who they were .

I am not all that sure about it, but now that I have started checking the suggestions, I have moret to respond to. Granted, I don't respond to all, as I don't have feedback for all of them, but I do respond to those that I can give feedback.

@SIMPLYD I live alone, so I can come in as much as I want, but when Icome in, I don't have all that many suggestions to even do, or most of them I have already responded to.

Maybe you should read the comment below of Some Guy Typing , that it will be difficult if it's the following who will appear in the Suggest button .

I have not noticed that fact Simply, I must check it out. I wish there were more suggest too as I am not seeing many discussions from friends at all.

As we all know , we have different time zones . That's why dropping a line or two will let our followings know we get to read what they are discussing about.

I also face the same problem. There are many followers in my list who are inactive. Sending a 'suggest' option for a discussion to my favorite mylotters sometimes takes a very long time.
