I think it outrageous and demeaning that someone out there would be so ignorant to push the funny button on non-funny hubs. I guess my wife and I have a hater out there who thinks it is fun to do this. I also think they are picking our hubs to thumb down as our hubber score sure has dropped lately. Is there any way hub staff could zone in on a person who is attacking just because they don't like individuals or are possibly envious of our works?
What comes around goes around and I hope the person or persons doing this will realize that.

This has been discussed a number of times, but I think it's time to bring it up again because lately I've been denying loads of comments that I view as spam. And, just now, I've been told by someone whose comments Ive denied that "hubs are here for comments". No, they aren't. If they...

Why would anyone delete a comment on their hub?If I deleted a comment on one of my hubs, I would figure I am not good at dealing with people who might disagree with me. People can agree or disagree, it's a free world. If the comment was mean or nasty, well I'm not the one looking bad,...

I was curious if there any strict rules about critiquing another person's hubs. If everything is based on fact and what they have said in the hub and comments it doesn't fall under the label of slander does it. <snipped>Don't want to post a link if it's a violation of rules. [Another hubber]...
