On Scratch 2.0, there is an option to follow people and learn and see what's happening with them in a new and updated feed. But, there's one popular trick with following: Some people do follow for follow, an exchange in example... Scratcher 1 wants Scratcher 2 to follow him. Scratcher 2 says no, but only if Scratcher 1 follows him. So, they ask each other for a follow from both of them (Scratcher 1 follows Scratcher 2, Scratcher 2 follows Scratcher 1).

Popularity
More than 1.6 thousand Scratchers use this trick (not trick, but useful skill) and ask others to do it. Many Famous Scratchers (derpmeup, BobbyF, Broguy, and kewl999) does not take follow for follows, instead only follows interesting and "inspiring" Scratchers.

Many people who decline do like the idea, but they do not want to clog up all the following feeds.
