It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question

We launched these two features a week ago. Is anyone seeing any issues, have any comments, or have any suggestions on changes you'd like to see made?
The bigger question is: are you using it, or possibly: did you even notice it.
It's a subtle visual change that hides a massive change underneath.

I noticed the blue "follow" button that appears everywhere, but to be honest... no need of it
About the read later... didn't notice it.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

Read later I'm going to use, but I think I will unfollow what I have followed.
The difference between: "Chris Maunder has posted a reply to a message at..." and "Chris Maunder has posted a reply to your message at..." is a bit to small for my taste.

There's not really meant to be any difference there.
The use cases we (internally) wanted were
- following an individual member so you could see all their posts and articles
- following a contest so you can see the entries as they are posted
- following some forums (eg the Soapbox, suggestions and lounge) instead of the fixed set we were previously showing
- Following a specific set of tags so I could really narrow down the focus of my homepage feed
- Following a specific article so each time it was updated I'd see it.
cheers

I understand that, but I'd prefer if there was one.
When I get a reply in my mail for something I have written myself, there is normally no problems following the conversation.
But when it's an answer to what someone else has written I'm totally lost at what it's about, which means I'm not knowing what the importance is until I've checked the thread.
If I on the other hand can see that it obviously isn't a response directly to me, it won't trigger my "OCD".

I started to use that for a few articles, and I kind of like it.
I noted a small bug, though: when you follow the same article several times, you get 2 reputation points each time. I think reputation points should be awarded only once per article.

I think there shouldn't be any reputations points for the follower, if... and only if... just for the followed, since it triggered some interest on people.
But just klicking "follow"? I don't think is needed.

I agree, there isn't really a need for reputations points on such a trivial action. But, system is done like that: you get reputation points when you log in, when you post, when you answer, comment, bookmark, etc.
That can be discussed; however, I think this is not the subject here; whatever the opinions, one should certainly not be awarded points several times for the very same action.

I know I'm not the brightest person here, but I cannot for the life of me find "Read Later". And to save embarrassment to anyone else who can't find it you can make me look stupid by pointing it out (even with a "duh" attached).
[edit]
Found it, thanks to a kind co-member.

You're not the dimmest bulb either. If you can't find it we have an issue.
Any suggestions on how to make it more obvious? Two things are coming
1. The button will go in articles
2. A link will be added to article listings in emails.
Anything else?
cheers

Now I know where to find it it seems obvious.
However, I think it could be brighter or more 'contrasty', in a manner similar to the Follow button. In articles if it is up in the top right corner with the others then I am sure it will be fine.
1. & 2. Sound a great idea.

It was not the case 30 minutes ago; now we cannot see posters names on questions and answers anymore.

Good idea but now spammers can post anonymously and there is not a way of reporting the user.

It's an issue:
 No way to find out who posted it, so the spammer cannot be reported.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Hover over the report "shield" and let me know if that helps.

I don't have a "shield", just a flag:
And "hover" is an entertaining problem on a tablet!

After you report you get to see who you reported.

OK, I'll try it - but it'll have to wait for spam to arrive. Shouldn't be long...
I'll let you know how it goes on PC, WookieTab, and Android, if I can.
