The powers that be decided that IHUB should be like Twitter and Facebook instead of being unique.

iHub was doing that long before Facebook or Twitter ever existed.

Favorites/Follows are provided for each user to use or not use as they see fit. The vast majority of members use them for one-click access to their Favorite/Followed users and boards, and by doing so having iHub track new post activity for them.

It's a natural by-product to report the aggregate number of marks, again something that has been going on since long before the advent of Facebook or Twitter. If some choose to assign a perceived value to the number of marks held by a board or user, the value (or lack thereof) is in the eye of the beholder. Personally, I find it preferable for the Mutual Respect and Admiration Society to conduct their swap meet on that board than on stock boards.
