Does anyone here have more than one profile? If so, why?
What different purposes do you have for different personas here on HubPages?

No one seems to know about some of the visitors who end up joining, doing one thing, like ask a question, then disappear. I still end up scratching my head.
No I have one profile and I have heard some of the hubbers use different profiles I agree with lifeallstar1...!!!

I would also like to know what determines my profile score. Does anyone know?I am always happy to see my profile score up in the 90's, but what determines it? What makes it go up or down?

I recently read some reviews on Consumer Affairs, which were absolutely devasting and have got me a little worried. I was wondering if anyone else wrote at similar sites prior to HubPages and why they made the switch, and if they had thought about going back.
