    When someone follows a question, it goes into their YA activity pro file so they can find the question again without having tk scroll back days or months .. Instead they can go to their YA,activity profile, left click or tap "More", then " NY Network, then questions.

    There are times when you want to answer a question, but for dome reason you don't have the time to answer the question right then, or you want to do some research before you answer the question.

    It means they want to know the Answer to the Question as well and are going to Follow up on It

    Kinda like think of it Like if you were to Try out for a Team and they Call you Back to Follow up on the Results of if you made the Team or Not

    It means one will get notifications to responses to it and whichever answer is the best answer picks.

  • It means that someone wants to follow it for good or bad reasons.  Not everyone follows a question just because they are interested in it.  When level 7 users could move questions they would use it to see where the question was and move it to an inappropriate subcategory.  There are some here who did it to me a number of times.  Now it is seldom used except when they think they will need the information in the future.  Most good things here turn bad by the bad people who live on this site day and night.  To see who following your question go to notifications.
