I can't follow a player.

I recently asked a friend to join the site, so he created an account and followed me (about that, I had to send him the link of one of my games so he could find my ID, is there a way to search for people?), but I can't manage to follow him back.

If I go on his profile page, the button just doesn't appear : http://i.imgur.com/5da1k3p.png

And when I go on my followers page, the button appears, but when I click it, it disappears and nothing else happens : http://i.imgur.com/N8mTlFu.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/DWX7hBW.png

Is it because he has not played any games yet or because of another reason, or is it just a bug?
And is there something I cna do about it?
You can search for players by going Players -> Search. I don't know if this is the case, but some people might have the following option disabled in preferences.
Okay I see, the search bar didn't appear because we were on mobile, and you're right about the option in the preferences.
Thank you.
Im having the same problem. It seems to happen if i unfollow, then refollow someone. Its getting annoying, because i don't see them appear in online friends. Any Solutions?
I am unable to follow my friend Barjavel. Can you help me?
Maybe tell him to try playing a game and see what happens.
