If you like someone, why not let them know? Like passing notes in class, adding someone as a favorite is sure to enduce a blush of happiness in the recipient. If another member posts stories, photos, videos or audio that you like, why not add them as a favorite? It makes it easier to see what they do in the future, and if you subscribe to their RSS or request to be emailed their new stories, then you’re even more likely to see their work as it appears. And same goes for you—the better your stuff, the more you’re likely to be added as a favorite for someone else.
