Bug with favorites

First of all, its a little confusing to add things to your favorite stories list. You have to subscribe to the page the story is on. Anyways, when I go to view someone's favorites, including my own, I get the fallowing message:

How can a function that hadn't been turned on for general public (hence the message) be a bug?

I would suppose that if the feature was supposed to be disabled then the fact that it was still accessible to begin with could be considered a bug ;-)

Again, it's disabled for general use. I use it quite happily. If you're going to post something here every time I add a new function, I'll stop responding to these threads as I won't have any time for actual work.

Each time we add a new feature to the site it undergoes a certain period of testing and adaptation. Once we finish with the tests, we'll always publish an news post to present the new features.

In other words, don't complain about something that has been on the site for barely 10 minutes. Also, if you see something new, or strange, don't try to use it before there's a news post about it. We have an auto-ban script running for too many access denied errors. And I don't check it that often.
