Following Messages

You know how you get messages through that inbox that you click on? I thought maybe there could be another on the people who your following's activity. And yes, I know there is a “What's Happening” feature on the home page. But if you follow a lot of people who are very active, you might not see some of other, not so active Scratcher's activity. With a “following messages” feature, you could see ALL of the people your following's activity, which would be very convenient. I highly suggest adding this. Thanks

set [messages v] to [both notifications and following people, in seperate message boxes. ]

No support. I follow many people, and would hate to get flooded with 100+ messages saying “________ loved ___________”.

It would be in a separate message box.

Yes but you do have an “all messages” box

no support for the suggestion. You already have a “What's Happening” feed… which is basically like messages, but they don't come in your inbox.

How about being able to see more than the last five things, maybe by scrolling down in the box? It'd only display things you'ven't (is that proper grammar? Meh.) seen yet.
As for receiving messages, I support getting notified when a follower shares a project as that is the main/likely reason you're following them - to see the projects they've made. It happens a lot where I don't know a follower of mine has shared a new project, and I only find out after seeing it on Top Loved or looking at their profile; sometimes they don't show up in “projects by Scratchers I'm following”. Pretty annoying and defies the point of following someone.

This is my problem

My point is that the “What's Happening” box only puts 5 messages at a time, and if you are following a lot of people (more than 25,) then more active scratchers could clog up the box and you wouldn't actually see all of the stuff.

Yes, but it doesn't have the notifications from the scratchers you're following.
