Curiosity got the better of me. Why would you want to block a follower?
You can black list Hub members, which I believe will prevent folks from commenting or following you but I could be wrong it has happened before.
You have to get a restraining order from the county.
That I know of there is no way to stop someone from following you. If they are doing something innappropriate then report them to HP staff.
Yes, you can block them. Just go to your profile - right at the bottom, and put their user name in.
mate... you only have 1 following you
having followers helps you get your hubs read, shared and recommended by others.
beefing up your bio and avatar are also things that show you have some authority in areas you write in.. if you are going to write on martial arts, then do yourself a favor and give what I'm saying some thought...
plus... you NEED to consider what 'do follow' status represents here.. then the points I am making may make more sense to you...
As mentioned above your only real option is blacklisting. There is no option to edit, remove or delete a follower from your profile page. Although quite honestly - you shouldn't want to remove your followers. Be thankful you have them.
Thank you all for your time , i know that my question is strange as i have only one follower, but i really can't mention the reason.Thank you again for your kindness and paying attention.

Wouldn't it be great if we could de-fan a follower? If your asking, "why in the world would you want to do that?" Let me tell you. Recently I have been gaining quite a few followers which actually helped push my numbers over 200. That is great. However, most of these people have not only...

I get seriously ticked when I see that I have a new follower and then find out that "two minutes ago" they have signed up to follow 6 or 8 other hubbers. There is no way that anyone who does that can have read any of your material. It just happened to me and I sent an email...

This is actually two separate questions.(1) Why did HubPages' Quantcast rating drop so much yesterday? It was #75. The day before it was at #66.(2) Is something weird going on with the Following function? I received an e-mail about a new follower. But my number of...

When you are notified of a new follower, how do you respond?Do you go to their page and check them out? Do you read any of their hubs? Do you mke sure that they are legitimate? I have a lot of followers who seem to be advertisers. Hubpages are really good about weeding them out but I do see many...

I am new to HubPages and still learning my way around - but really enjoying it so far! But I had someone start to 'follow' me and I presume because I didn't follow her back, she 'unfollowed' me. I'm not following anyone right now, just trying to get up and running first and have lots else to do but...

I am being followed by someone with no hubs, who claims to have over 100 followers. As I always do with a new follower, I went to this persons profile and all their hubtivity is following other hubbers. Their off hub url is a spam ad. How do I remove them from my followers list and block them?
