Everyone seems to use the hub pages forum to rant about problems with this and that. Its so depressing to read.
My hub views doubled from yesterday. That good enough?
The cool thing about hand-eye coordination is that you can use this magical ability to NOT click on threads that discuss problems and complaints. Best of luck to you Craig Easom.
Excuse the outburst, Craig Easom, but Relache's quip was so funny. Anyway, I agree! How about you post a positive post! I will participate. See you later.
In fairness to anyone guilty of participating in less-than-happy threads, sometimes one man's "rant" is really another man's attempt to have a discussion about something serious (often something that's a widespread problem and that a lot of people think needs to be addressed/discussed), or else have a constructive discussion about a problem, with the aims of hoping people will figure out some solutions. That kind of discussion isn't always everyone's "cup-of-tea", but they're not always as "negative" as some people think they are. BUT, I agree that some more upbeat or fun threads would be nice. I suppose, though, I think of something like these forums as similar to the news: The serious stuff gets most of the coverage With the exception of the often pointless religious fights that go on here, I see people's getting together and having a "serious discussion" as a very social, constructive, thing shared by a group of people who may otherwise not have much in common.. Writers are usually verbal people, so I pretty much don't see anything as "rant" unless the individual who posts something actually announces that he's going to "vent" or "rant". Without one of those "announcements" (which usually show up on rants), I just write "whatever" off to the fact that a few writers in one place tends to mean a whole lot of words.
Don't worry Craig, you can count on me to not take any thread seriously 97% of the time.

Is it a trend or is it being initiated by HP? Just curious.

I was just curious. I have not seen a lot of hubbers that have been here at Hubpages for over two years..perhaps they are too busy hubbing away!

Whenever I open the forums, I see countless threads by the same people, many of them unanswered or with only a couple of comments. I would love to see a limit on how many threads the same person can open daily. I often have to go to page 2 or 3 to see what else people are...

I have a request, and it comes at the price of sounding as if I am approving of totalitarian censorship. Since I started on Hubpages, I have frequently visited the forums in hopes of not only learning, but growing as a writer. I have enjoyed lively conversation and seen the diverse...

Who thinks we should ask to reinstate a page dedicated to locating hubbers by hubber score. Beginning with 100-0.We once had such a page here that made the hubber score much more relevant, and we could at least get a chance to locate the top hubbers who most definitely deserved high praise for...
