Fantastic idea, it has given the profile page a new and gorgeous look! thanks to the Hub pages Team!
I just got my first 10 accolade and only in 3 days. Whey hey!!!
Great innovation Hubpages team. Thanks. I LOVE the accolades!
This is indeed a wondrous improvement! Apart from detailing your feedback, it encourages you to write better and more interesting hubs!
I have a proposal for EVERY HUBBER, no exceptions! We should go back to hubs we´ve already commented on and click on the new details feedback. Everyone will benefit from it, and we´ll be helping each and everyone of us. Do not procrastinate! let´s do it NOW, Brothers and Sisters!
Warmest regards and infinite heavenly blessings to every one!
I LOVE YOU ALL,
Al
I am getting ready to do just that!
I think that this is a wonderful addition to the hubs and to our profiles-it sums up some of our accomplishments here up and lets readers know what they are getting from each of the writers...As well as, I have some followers that may not write as much as others-but they are great motivation for me to write with all the comments that they leave/ it is fantastic that on their profile there can now be something that says what a great motivator they are.
That's a nice idea, I will go back to hubs I've commented on as well.
What a great way to give recognition. I also love the other items you placed beside the rating up or down bar. useful, funny, awesome, beautiful...another form of appreciation for content and the effort put forward by a hubber.
I was only gone for 2 days - to complete classes & finals - and I come back to find...Changes!! I like this new accolade feature! Now I want to collect them all!
Thanks HubPages team, these are super additions.
This feature is totally awesome! Love it. Thanks for making HubPages the best.
Did i just jump from 18 months to 2 years
<----------------- As a result of the accolades? Im pretty sure I was at 18 months a few hours ago.
I've been away two days and I am just now able to get on the Internet, and I find this new feature. I am so excited. I'll have to go over and study it to get the hang of it. Someone said a few days ago that they thought something new was about to happen here and they were right. I LOVE IT! Well, what I've seen of it so far. Being away from the "Pages" for two days was like going cold turkey. Anyway guys, Thanks for the new features, can't wait to get familiar with it.
You guys really know how to make addicts out of everybody. thanks for the accolades it was a nice surprise.
I love all the new features, I think that it is wonderful that you can see your milestones and other peoples by just clicking on the accolades on peoples profile page
I also think the accolade feature is brilliant. But can they add a feature showing the user/hubber (and only him/her) the hubs that were voted down to give him/her at least an idea of what she "did or doing wrong"? It would be better for everyone to have a feel of what is liked and disliked by their readers
I like those new features , they are good for my self esteem. I got a badge for most forgettable writer. I thought that was pretty cool and it has inspired me to greater levels of mediocrity !
I couldn't agree with you more brother! Look, we even have the same hubberscore!
....and ups and downs??
we are talking about the Hub Highway, aren't we?
@Tony - mediocrity? no way
There are few glitches with system like if you've not answered 10 questions or so you'll get that accolade anyway. so such small things needs to be fixed.
Without going into all our hubs to check, how can we tell which hubs are getting the feedback (awesome, beautiful, etc.)?
I'm assuming we CAN see whether someone's called it useful or awesome or whatever on the individual hub page...is that true?
Are we able to also hide our hubtivity on our profile pages at all?
If hubpages could answer, cool, if not, I will write directly
thank you
I am curious why accolades keep appearing and disappearing? If anyone has an answer for that too, it would be nice.
Not required, but nice.
I just noticed this and think it is a great idea and keeps you motivated to really hang in there!
Thanks, my husband thought I was the only one who got them People reading it think its something, thank you people!
Excellent job, I really liked it very useful for the new hubbers! thanks.
Love the cool new icons in the fan box..now we can see just which fans are most loyal:)Theres a tiny star icon next to those who rated you or a thumbs up for great hubs I assume...still all good the new hub layout is awesome!
Its a nice feature, but i think it would also be good to be able to see my progress towards each award. Unless of course i just dont know how to!
Great idea! jondav..I for one would like to know what are the criteria for awarding accolades. Ok..some of them are self explanatory like published 100 hubs or gaining 100 fans but what about comments and participation in hub community. Just how many 'valuable comments ' does one have to contribute before receiving the cool new accolade?..Knowing this vital information could help encourage hubbers to achieve more accolades hence produce more hubs..more comments..more activity..more traffic... for hubpages and its hubbers.
The Accolades have been a motivation and it has helped me be more active in the forums, which is a area I have been working on to do more.
I wonder, are there any secret accolades to reach or aspire to?
I am still wondering why I have one accolade that keeps disappearing and reappearing.
Maybe they are not real sure about it.
Hey Rochelle, I find your remark interesting and way, way, way out there in the darkness.
The accolades are great! The accolades give me positive feedback and milestones to work toward. How does hubpages know that a hub is read completely by a reader?
Accolades while warm and fuzzy are an artificial and inaccurate measure of quality. All it takes is a push of a button, rather than a true analysis of one's work.
I am two months late in checking. Glad to see the total page veiws exceed 10k.
I really love the accolades feature, haven't got any yet though!
Accolades is great feature on profile page and it makes profile page beautiful and tells about the activity of author.Good way of appraising authors.
A great feature, I have two accolades that now show up on my profile and it has encouraged me to participate, and apply myself more, aim for more, I am determined to add to this list. Good idea guys, thanks.
That sounds like a great idea! As a new hubber, I was wondering what those were.
How often to accolades get updated? I hit a significant milestone early yesterday, and I don't see it in accolades (which I don't enable for general view), and I don't see it as an item in Hubtivity either, although it should be.
Accolades are a great feature of hubapges. It is a kind of motivation to keep going and achieving one milestone after another here at Hubpages.
I love the accolades here on HubPages. It definitely keeps me working harder. It would be cool to see more accolades, though. I'll definitely think about ideas for different accolades. I know a similar site just introduced something similar except they have members "level up." I really like the leveling up feature, although I don't really care for the other site too much... I <3 HubPages. One thing I don't like about the feature, though, is that you unlock different topics you can write about when you level up. I love writing about travel and it would be boring if I had to write X amount of hubs before I hit like level 53 or whatever it is so that I could write about travel!
