Follow Limit

I have a bone to pick. Why can we only follow 100 users? I know that it's a lot of people, but how can we follow everyone that we like if there's a limit? Just imagine if twitter had a limit, no one would follow you. Please, get rid of the limit :) Does anyone else think the same?

It makes sense too, because the longer you have been on the site, the more people you are likely to know. Its not like most things where people think they are entitled to things just because they are older. In this case, it actually would be a necessary thing. [b]-Insane Assassin[/b][/quote] Yet you could be here only a year and get to know just as many people as someone who's been here for 5. Some people have been here for years and get to know NO ONE on a person level. I just don't agree with this logic. [b]-Camm[/b][/quote] [quote]Monkeysphere man. Monkeysphere. If you are not that close to someone, then their orbit is farther out. The 100 person limit should be enough to encompass all those with whom you are close and share personal information with and even include some "comfortable strangers". But it shouldn't be everyone who just happens to be in the same school district... how well can you know everyone in that grouping knowing how large, diverse and... irrelevant it is?

You're still able to interact with more people and see their activity log even without following them.

For now, we picked a small limit because we don't want you to follow everyone. That makes following meaningless. We'll see how it plays out over time and adjust accordingly. [b]-Achronos[/b][/quote] [quote]I understand where people are coming from when they want a higher following limit, and I understand why people think it should be raised with age. I've been a member on Bungie.net for a little over four years now. I know a lot of people. Like, a lot. My XBL friend's list has been filled for years, and I still don't have everyone on there that I'd want. The point is though, like Recon said, there are only so many people that you actually "know". I know about half the users on this website. I've talked to them on occasion, recognize their names, etc. But do I really "know" them? No. All that said, I'm perfectly ok with just being able to follow 100 people, because once you start following a lot of people, exactly how well are you really following them? Even at 100 people, are you really able to follow them like a real follower? There's a point where you simply can't keep up, and following someone simply becomes a meaningless gesture. So 100 is good. In my opinion, at least. [b]-Rollin[/b][/quote]
