Anyone else getting strange very long comments on your Hubs.....
that are unrelated to the article and about something altogether different? This particular Hubber has hit the same Hub twice with these diatribes.
Hi duffsmom, I haven't had these on my own hubs but have seen them on other peoples. Some of them are really freaky and unbalanced! If they are becoming a nuisance I would report it to the Hub Pages team, perhaps there could be a way to block the person responsible?
I've not had any but I'd be interested to hear anyone's rant. Life is full of unusual things.
I haven't seen any either. If it's bothersome to you just don't accept the comment. Then at least it won't show up for everyone else to see.
I'm new to Hubs, but on another site a group of jokesters would conspire to pick someone at random and on the same day comment on one of their photos with comments that had nothing to do with the photo.
I'm ashamed to say we did it to drive people up a tree, but we were not malicious in any way, and the things we wrote were funny and even poetic. Just entirely off-point.
Sometimes the person 'got it' and then we'd let him or her in on the joke and offer them a place in our little troll group.
Now, this was years ago, before big spamming bots were a problem. I don't know if it would be considered good clean fun today.
Hello Ma'am!
I havn't had any yet but if he/she bothering you alot then just don't accept their comments.
Try it.
They are probably spammers, posting random text with links to their site. I've had a few and marked them as spam. They do it to try to get links to their site for SEO purposes.
I haven't yet recieved any such comments.But if you are having this kind of problem then just don't give response to their comments and don't accept them.They will stop doing this after some time

Has anyone else noticed that the stats/views seem to be frozen here for the last 20+ hours or so?My views seem to be frozen since yesterday, when I have received a ton of comments on a particular hubs, and the views are so low, that it is as if no one has viewed the hubs, but that is not the case,...

I've never had this happen much before: readers (not fellow hubbers) are leaving strange comments that have nothing to do with the hub topic. They're not leaving links, so how are the comments a benefit to the commenters? Strange!

Is anyone else getting spam messages on their hubs?In the past couple of hours, I received three comments on 3 random hubs of mine. The comments have nothing to do with my hubs. I looked up the ip addresses. Two were from the Netherlands. One was from Qatar.

Anyone else losing hubber score?The funny thing is I find the more I comment on other hubs, the lower my score goes...honest. Crazy, but honest. I had a 98 score for weeks and weeks when I wasn't able to read as many hubs and leave comments. I wanted to make up for lost time and...

Just gaging anyone else's earnings here. I just checked google adsense and I have earned 64 dollars in 18 months. I've only written 19 Hubs and most of them don't get any traffic. Any thoughts?
