    This seems far better then just over a year ago. The new layout helps but it just feels like writers here are getting along better and being helpful. This is opposed to last year when I saw competition become more important then being neighborly. I am happy......It sure makes for a better writing atmosphere and increases my willingness to reach out to hubbers. Maybe it's just me but I like the change!

      NOBODY IS GETTING ALONG. WHO ARE YOU TO SAY PEOPLE ARE BEING NICE. DON'T COME IN HERE AND TRY TO SPREAD YOUR HARMONY AROUND LIKE SOME KIND OF NICENESS BUTTER ON THE TOAST OF OUR DISCONTENT!

    There's still blood being splattered all over the religion and political forums everyday, but the other forums do seem to be a kinder, gentler place. big_smile

    Hell hath no fury like a Hubber scorned (or at least one who feels scorned, whether or not anyone ever planned or wanted to make him/her feel that way).   hmm

      Whenever I sense what I perceive as unethical conduct, I usually just clear the hell out. lol

    I like the atmosphere lately, too, and I've only been here two months. I've seen some positive changes and less drama, which is great. I do agree that things can get hot in certain forums or threads. I avoid most of those, but I have written some political things.

      Have not seen or heard any ramblings from the Hubpolice lately........ya know, the ones who are sort of like snitches and think because they have been here for awhile, they run the joint. Cracks me up, good to see people chillin out more!

    I much prefer the way the forums are now, too.

    I used to hardly ever post because they were full of 'personalities' who thought they owned Hubpages.

    Now that I own it, their silence is deafening!! wink

          I'm sure it was the Chewing Gum Cod Piece and fishnets that he was caught wearing! smile

          And No... it wasn't him Chewing the Gum, even though he had bent over backwards for many a passing stranger in the forums! sad

            I told him not to wear them in the religious forums, but would he listen? NOOOO!lol

                Yes, I know.  But I must pretend I am shallow and therefore not implicit in anything untoward on these forums.  The game, you know!  smile

    This time last year, Panda had just hit and many hubbers were seeing a drop of 50% or more in previously high traffic accounts. That can make anyone a little grouchy. smile
