You should only see statues of users if you are following them. However, as i reported in this topic Follower System Does not work for intended purpose - #2 by nsgriff, the follower system does not for actually following people’s status updates. Hopefully there is a fix on the feed for that, as i know lots of users currently use it, but are probably confused as to why their favorite devs or cool people they met in game and followed never post status updates.
