    When I post to the forums, my profile pic often comes up with a number of followers that is greater by one than my actual number. We have ghosts here! Welcome ghostly follower, whoever you are.

    I've had that too. I had one less on my Profile Page than on the Forums. I thought it was a Follower who had somehow not 'surfaced' properly.

    hmm  I wish I had a ghost follower.. although I did almost have a psychic girlfriend once, but she left me before we met. neutral

    Where do you sign up for the ghost followers?  Are they like ghost writers?  Things that make ya go hmm... That's just weird.

    I think it's a Follower who gets stuck in the system somehow. Shortly after it happened to me, I did, indeed, get another Follower. Whether that was actually the one, I don't know.

    I could use some haunting.

    "Here ghostey, ghostey...here, little ghost!" (And bring some devilish friends.)

    I don't think I would have even noticed if I had a phantom phollower.
