Did You Stop Following a Hubber Who Has Stopped Commenting on Your Hubs?
Writing fills you with hope and a positive mind.
Why do followers stop following or commenting on hubs?
I have recently noticed a few followers on my list who have totally stopped commenting on my hubs. They have sent impressive fan emails to me but have not commented on any of my hubs for the last few months.
It can be frustrating or disappointing to see comments on other hubs and not mine. I have commented on their hubs even though they have not commented on mine. I have noticed that my comments have not been replied to or have been deleted.
Have you experienced this problem with any of your followers?
I have stopped following those who do not comment on my hubs. Maybe, they do not feel obliged to comment on my hubs, I am not sure what is the actual problem.
Their work is as good as any but why do they choose to shun me without notice?
I have written for many sites and found Hub-pages to be my best writing site. A friendly community but not all are active users. I was surprised by their behaviour but do not care because I am not like them.
I am pleased to say I have many comments from my followers who keep up their up-to-date visits. They do not miss out on reading and truly commenting.
Did you stop following followers who stopped commenting on your hubs?
Writing is challenging and there are some envious writers or some selfish writers, as a writer one must put up with all sorts.
After all, we are here to write and share and expect comments from our followers. Being loyal to ourselves and others is a great start in the writing field.
You never know your true community unless you experience something as I have over my time here. However, they have completely stopped commenting on my work. I would tell you directly if I knew a hub was not good enough.
Are we helping each other here or just writing for ourselves?
Most writers go through such experiences and when it comes to the confrontation they drift away. I spent time reading and commenting and not seeing my comment afterwards which did make me think even more about the problem.
I then realized that person is not interested in my work. They have commented on other hubs, and I have not yet had a comment from that follower.
Do you feel frustrated, or disappointed when a follower stops commenting on your hubs for no reason?
Why do followers send great fan mail notes but do not show interest in commenting on hubs?
When you follow someone do you not expect them to comment on your hubs?
So, you get this so-called encouraging fan mail and you get all excited about it, but what for?
Do you think I am taking this to heart and making a big issue of the situation?
I am with Hubpages for over a year and have met many friendly Hubbers. Those who send their false fan emails, and do not comment are just trying to be nice, or do not have the time to comment on my hubs.
If it is not important to respond to anyone's hubs then why are you writing here, and sending such fan emails?
Most Writers want to earn dollars and cannot see beyond the dollar sign. They do not care much about their followers. Not every person here wants to earn dollars. Most writers write for pleasure and comment on what they find most interesting to them.
The fan emails make one feel uplifted, and courageous and allow one to share their knowledge even more with others. Writers here have their own needs in writing for Hubpages and not many are active daily.
I do understand that time is often not enough with day jobs and other daily activities. No feedback from any of my hubs makes me feel less worthy as a writer!
If anyone enjoys reading my work, they should also show it in their comments is that right?
We support each other in the writing field by knowing that what we write is useful to another by reading their valuable comments, or opinions.
If you do not receive comments how would you know if your work is good enough?
You need is a critic to prove that.
One must let a writer know how they feel about their articles online. A fair opinion would not hurt anyone, instead would broaden their knowledge about writing as they go along.
Does it need attention, and what can one do to improve their work online?
Fan mail on the other hand can be left to inspire writers and not for the special reason of commenting and just to make the writer feel welcomed here.
Most writers do not feel obliged to comment on hubs after sending fan emails.
Usually, fan emails are sent after hubs have been read. Comments may not be necessary for everyone.
If a follower has been commenting for a while and then suddenly stops how would that make you feel?
I, however, feel commenting on hubs is very important, it gives one something not to only look forward to, but also, to know more from their reader's opinions.
It is most helpful to read comments. I always read and comment directly. It is about supporting each other and working together as a friendly community if that means anything on hub pages. You are part of a community sharing and believing in one another does count for what we are active daily on here.
It is a basic courtesy that I fail to understand from most of my followers. If you accumulate your followers and use that as your main target to accomplish your goals here, then you are not getting the real point at hub pages.
What would you accomplish here if you do not work together?
Interacting is how you achieve your goals on Hub pages. Sometimes it can be intimidating to comment you do not know what to say about a specific topic.
If you read and understand it thoroughly you can comment with great thought. I think the best is to eliminate the followers who do not care for commenting especially if they were commenting and have stopped responding to your hubs.
Those who delete your comments are simply not worthy of your list. Most writers do not work the same way some enjoy reading comments, and others feel there is no need to comment.
While some writers feel commenting is important and you find that views are not always the most important part of their writing.
If you want an opinion about your writing, then comments are most useful. Whichever your way sees it I have my opinion, and that is to forget them.
