Has anyone been in a situation where they were attacked because other hubbers were jealous of your success on HubPages? I have spent my entire day trying to help other hubbers and walk them through techniques to increase THEIR money making potential here on hubs, and 98% of the hubbers have been overly thankful. Now I feel as though I'm being attack by several hubbers who don't like my methods. Any thoughts?
Constructive criticism is not an attack.
I read the thread and think you got some pretty solid advice.
Proper Use of the Ratings Capsule
While the Ratings Capsule is perfect for reviews of recipes, products, services, and places, it is not intended for reviews of more abstract, opinion-centered subjects, such as people, movements, politicians, and public figures. Ratings Capsules are also not intended for use with rating Hubs.

Your kindness will probably result in a warning from HP. Sometimes it is best to keep secrets.
The hubs are clearly ratings of Verizon Wireless services... Though I appreciate everyone's warnings, at this point I've cleared it with HubPages staff because I was really starting to think I had done something wrong. Obviously the way I first explained it could have definitely given the impression that the ratings were being used incorrectly, but I can assure you and everyone else who felt the need to "warn" me that I have cleared these specific hubs with HP staff.
Nice looking hub.
I do not think anyone was attacking you though, I believe they were advising you in good faith.

What's your take on jealousy among hubbers on Hubpages?I published a hub a few days ago. The hubscore started at 66 and has been doing great. Two nights ago the hub went to 91. A hubber left a comment on the hub - "How did you get that many followers?". The hubber did not say anything...

I started in late August 2012 and want to start up the New Year with some long and short term goals. I don't have a clue where to start. I have pruned, revised, rewrote, edited until my poor bonsai Hubs have been shaped to their very branches. I am so confused by keywords and I have...

I have been a Hubber for 14 month, but I started to write Hubs about 3 to 4 month ago; my pageviews are 3200 more. I have written 12 Hubs so far; it's not easy to write them -I must think hard...very hard. And I do not know how The TeamHubpages views my Hubs: I do not know how Google Ads reviews my...
