When I went to the profile page of a Hubber I hadn't heard from for a while, the page states, "Sorry that user no longer exists." It just struck me the wrong way.
Can you please change the wording? The person doesn't cease to exist simply because they aren't here. Maybe change "user" to account or profile. Or add the words "on HubPages" at the end. Or both.
Also, this would really be a good place for marketing and provide a small list of other profiles to visit instead.
I remember a request about the wording on unpublished hubs, but can't find it. Did you change the wording on those?
I think this is the thread about the wording of unpublished hubs: http://hubpages.com/forum/topic/124430 . From what Lisa says, it looks as though they've changed it.
Since I'm removing content this week, and have a running list of removed URLS, here's the message for the removed hub:
410. That page doesn't exist.
The author may have decided to delete it, or there could be an error with the URL that you are using.
Back to HubPages
One of these pages may be useful
(Shows one hub that was actually sort of related to the one I removed.)
Good thanks. I am glad that they did change the message for removed hubs. Now they need to change the message for removed Hubbers.
I'm glad to see they changed it. I was the one who originally posted the problem, but never saw the change since all of hubs are now featured. Thanks for showing it.

I just finished editing a Hub and signed out. Then I called up the Hub only to get this terrible message that puts a very bad light on Hubbers as possible violators of "The Code."What a poor image this gives the public. Being new to HB, my reaction is one of a public person who knows...

Is there ever a time when you are not happy with a word or words in a poem? Do you spend time trying to change the word and/or wording, or move on?

HI!I have a suggestion for the HP staff. Please change the wording on the public hubpages near the bottom where it asks for comments. Currently next to the comments section it has a little box that reads:Members and GuestsSign in or sign up and post using a hubpages account.So it APPEARS the only...

My recent article “Dreams: What Do They Mean?” has been moved to Exemplore. I am pleased with that as I have only had a couple of articles moved there before.But, what I am less pleased with is that every one of the images I used (from Pixabay) were replaced with less attractive ones. The video I...
