1) Yup! Fuck you indeed. It's not like it's a mandatory "You cannot follow this person any more." Just a message that prompts you to unfollow the person who's taking a break or not coming back. If someone really likes you, they'll stick to it, and if you come back, people will follow you again.

2) Again, if you want to keep following someone who's posts you're not sharing or commenting on, that's your business. You should just be reminded of it.

3) Right now, unfollowing mk and kleibl00 does nothing- I still see them everywhere because almost everyone follows them, and they pull in so many shares and comments taht it's hard to avoid them. Limiting the number of followers a user can get prevents us having a situation where the pond doesn't have room for little fish because there are 3-5 whales wandering around. Yeah, you'd follow someone who followed someone else, but I'd put hard, cold cash that all users are withing 2 degrees of one of Hubski's Holy Trinity.
