Hey guys, I new to hubpages and I know that a lot of sites like this get a lot of spam mail and a lot of spammy articles.
Do you guys have this problem at hubpages? Because I'm getting a little tired of it!
Welcome, and I think you'll love it here. HP has pretty strict rules about spamming, and most stuff on here has a "flag" button so the users can self-police. Dive in and enjoy!
There's very little spam since it's not what hubpages is about. You'll get hooked pretty fast.
Welcome!
Welcome!! No, not much spam here..sure some here and there but that's the cost of using the internet!

I've been here awhile, and I don't see any of the kind of stuff people often get from other sites. Once in a while I'll get a weird e.mail through my HubPages profile, but it's pretty rare.
You've been here 80 minutes and have two hubs and two fans already? Nice start. Welcome to hubpages.
I don't usually have a big problem with this. BTW, welcome to HP.
Welcome, I am not as old as the rest (no offense intended), but I like it here. You could just jump in to conversations and express yourself, but be warned if the conversations are too heated, stay clear and ust sit back with a bag of popcorn and watch the fire works.
Spam definatly isnt a problem here. Oh sure you may get the odd email thats spammy and it seems every evening when the staff shut their doors for the evening the occasional spammer comes out. However if you ignore them or just report them they will go away.
Welcome to a great community.

Hi, I've noticed Hubpages emails from editors, team, and the weekly newsletter all going into my spam folder this week in my gmail account. Not sure why. I marked them as "not spam" so I hope that helps.Could this be part of Google downgrading the whole site for being overly promotional?...

There has been a lot of discussion in the last few days about HP changing the rules and people being un-featured or even un-published for spam and over promotional activity. So I just want to add my thoughts......Whether people (writers) like it or not most of their traffic will be coming from...

I'm pretty new to hubpages. I am pretty young (turned 18 in May) so I don't have much life experience to share with people here.My main question is do I still have a chance with my Hubs? I've made a few Hubs sharing what little experiences I have had in my life and what knowledge I do...

Is there a possibility we could have a new feature that would only allow Hubpage members with profiles to send emails? I think this might cut down on the amount of spam we are currently receiving from unverified email accounts. Just a thought . Also, it would be great if email...
