One of my Accolades seems to come and go of its own free will. Its the little pink one with thumbs.
Does this happen to other people. It is quite annoying. Does not seem to matter what I do, it just comes and goes. Its gone now and later today it will pop back in. Anyone have a clue?
that icon is for participation in the forums, if you take a break from the forums for a few days it can dissapear and will come back when you are active again.....jimmy
Mine just left and never came back. I thought that it was a participation thing, but my wife is also registered on this site and her accolade remains despite inactivity. Maybe she uses the forums and I just don't know about it, but it remains a mystery for me.
I have the same issue. I think participation in forum is more important than answering question. because when I participate in forum that accolade comes and when I am inactive it goes back. I also get annoyed with this. For me this is motivational factor. But sometimes hubpages moderator is beyond my understanding. Now I have learn to live with it. All the best.
annoying! The forums are not a place I like to hang out. They get to be like the Rant and Rave session on Craigslist.... non-productive.
you can get it 3 ways.
1. Forums
2. Voting
3. Flagging inappropriate content.
When you read other people's hubs and make meaningful comments and provide good insights it goes a long way to keeping those little thumbs up there. Answer questions (like this one) and help people, ask intelligent questions......
It's fun and very rewarding.

If your pink forum accolade keeps disappearing and then popping back when you least expect it to, then this is the forum for you. This is simple a place to make a and satisfy the moderator accumulator gadget that rates our participation in forums. Please free to rant on about...

Are we allowed to request new accolades? Well of course we are, because I am about to do it right now. I would like to request the new accolade, %username% was banned from the forums for over 10 hours!It would be useful in many different ways, and not necessarily a bad accolade to have on your...

Many hubbers admit to being addicted to the forums and I've been afraid that it would happen to me. I'm sure it's difficult to overcome this addiction. I know it's a lot of fun to participate, but I still want to be very productive and write as much as I can. I think I maybe at high risk for...

If so, why and would that entail being given a reason?I ask as I had an accolade for helping new hubbers and highlighting bad posts, but now it's gone -- the "" sign.Yesterday it was there and today it isn't.Now I'm not really that big on accolades, but if someone wants to give me a pat...

The HP Political and Social Issues forums have become a caricature of what they used to be.I miss the good ol' days of dissenting opinions. I miss the voices of those non-PC, non-polite voices that added the fire to many discussions. It seems that now-a-days everyone tries to be soooo polite and...

As some of you may have noticed ads show up on articles, the answer section and the forums. Great, the more ads the more that we can possibly earn. But I am still having a problem with the hubber (profile) score. Since any links that appear on a hub are no follow if the profile score is below 85,...
