Ive been fiddling around with custom titles on our current test site. Trying to figure out how I can achieve as seen on my profile here under my name A title then a nickname we use this to allow our moderators to pick there own fishy title rather then the standard titles we give to our users.

Playfish Eh'Fishal
Awesome Fish
Any idea how I can achieve this in Xenforo? Currently we use html coding so for example mine would be under user title :
<b>Playfish Eh'Fishal</b><br><i>Awesome Fish</i>
but this doesnt seem to work in Xenforo

You can allow custom user titles on a usergroup or user basis but that will replace the default user title.
This may help to answer some other questions you may have: http://xenforo.com/help/user-groups/
You could also look at using this template edit which will then replace the user group title: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/user-status-ribbons-based-on-usergroups.11602/
You can of course edit the css to achieve any look you want, even making it appear as a default user title.
On my site they look like this for example.

Id like to follow someone and vice versa so I can see how this feature works properly currently only have a test site to go on, and we currently don't have this option on the software we are currently using. BUT I don't want to seem like a stalker 
so if anyone is ok with me following them please let me know

The real benefit of following someone is when you open the Your News Feed page: http://xenforo.com/community/account/news-feed
It's a way of filtering the global news feed down to the people you're most interested in.

Love this .. but question is there a way that you can choose if people can follow you or not ? Or can anyone follow you. I ask because for myself personally I don't particularly want members following me around on our boards. I could see it being handy for admins, moderators and our users ect but could be annoying for other staff that are not on the boards in a mod or admin or user capacity.
I also currently keep only people on vB who i allow to be my friend to send me private messages does this also allow that
once again sorry for all the questions
Anyone can follow you.
However, the permission to allow them to view your filtered news feed is controlled by you.
Same goes for being able to send you messages.
It's all controlled by your privacy settings: http://xenforo.com/community/account/privacy
I can follow you for example but if you set it to People You Follow Only, I won't receive your feed.
