Follow System
Users can follow and unfollow other users to build their social network within QELT Hub.
How It Works
- Click "Follow" on any user's profile to follow them
- Following is a one-way relationship (A follows B ≠ B follows A)
- Users cannot follow themselves
- The followed user receives +5 reputation points per new follower
- Unfollowing deducts -5 reputation points from the unfollowed user
- Follow/unfollow status is tracked in real-time
