    I just got an ad...'want more followers?' And I can 'buy' more followers. What are they doing, looking for people with a piddly number of followers? They actually called me out, by name...Fuck that, I don't care how many followers I have. I'm more happy when a professional photographer 'likes' one of my pics.

    Like that acually came from Instagram? or did someone send it to you? Like who would actually "pay" for followers?? How stupid do you have to be??? :lol:
    Look up Ellen.Burgos.n she just told me I can earn followers for free...and all her pics are of her ass...or the beach.

    elite_vine is the pay account, though in my IG it shows up as someone else...like they got their account hacked, cuz that person is a meathead gym dude.

    Oh yeah, I get those kind of followers all the time and they leave me comments about getting followers and what not, I just ignore them and delete their comments, block them if they harrass me...

    I only started using it last year when I did the international traveling.
    My friend made me sign up for it for her wedding either 2012 or 2013 (I'm a terrible person) and I posted a couple cat pix after the wedding and forgot about it. Until I went traveling. And even then I kept forgetting to use it at first.

    I'm kind of excited...there is a really great photo editing app from AutoDesk (for free-AutoDesk puts out really great software for large companies), and they do IG contests. Can't remember if it's weekly or monthly, anywho...I just posted a submission for the current one, and they just liked it!
    I've posted before for their contests, and never gotten a 'like' from them.

    I would be over the moon if they 're-post' my pic.

    For artist nerds, it would be like if Corel Draw liked something you posted using their software.

    I kinda am! I took some pretty cool pics today, but I'll slowly post them, I hate bombarding people's IG feeds with pics.

    Can't wait to see them! Haha I bombard all the time if I'm doing something where I take lots of cool pics...I just unfollowed this girl for bombarding my feed with the most mundane pics ever though like she's was going on hikes and taking umpteen pics of the same kinds of piles of twigs...not of pretty things...it was like ok this is boring....

    "hi I'm working with over 200 companies globally on some projects leveraging social media. DM me for more info"

    Anybody get that? Does it sound scammy?

    Who says "DM" in instead of PM? Yeah it sounds scammy.
    Another habit says it's in love with you
    Another habit says its long overdue
    Another habit like an unwanted friend

    I haven't gotten it, but I think it does sound a little scammy...if it was for real I would think they would DM you...I tend to ignore comments like that on my pics and actually just delete them...it pisses me off...

    i don't think they can DM you unless you are following them and they are following you or maybe that's twitter. I would block em either way.

    You know I'm not sure about that...I think I got a DM once recently from someone I didn't have as a follower or wasn't following, but then I have so many followers that I might have just overlooked it...I have a lot of them that start following me, and I for the life of me can't fig out why so I don't follow back...LMAO!

    I'm pretty sure you can DM away as long as the other person isn't set as private.
