    So it may not be a big deal to you but it is to me!   This morning I had 351 fans..Now 350.. Where did he/she go? Did I  misplace them?  Was I defanned? Or was it just someone left hubpages and no longer have an account??

    If you worry about things like this, you will probably go crazy.  God help you if you get a twitter account.

    Well if it was BadCo, Pirate girl, "13" or the doctor House character - they packed up and went home, as did several other hubbers this week.

    I'd love to have your fan base!!!

    I had just hit 200 and was proud of my accomplishment and then I went back to 199. *sigh*

    Of course, 300 is the next milestone, so I think I can live through this setback. smile

    Hon,
    It is only one and it was BADCO but he is still here don't fret there are another so many more out there. smile
    Always remember to check the fans who have commented because yes you may have accepted them the first time, but that darn little buttton pops out like a belly button and if you do not review them they will honestly be removed without there own knowledge. It is sad but true smile

    HEY!! Here is an example I was always your fan and I had to rejoin always check the belly buttons on your fan mail.big_smile

    But why and where did he go?

      There's been a bit of a fallout in your absence. It's best to accept something came to pass and we can only hope that it all blows over soon.

      On another note ... I had noticed you were absent for some time. Is your smile back for good? I hope so. smile

        Yes I think so. Theres been a lot of things going on in my personal life. I am lucky I didn't have a nervous breakdown. LOL But on the bright side, I bought a house and my payment is $130 a month..

    Don't feel bad. It happens to me...I just wrote a friendly article about vegan desserts for the holidays. Nothing preachy...just animal/dairy free and lost 2 fans within an hour. D:

    Apparently, it's quite controversial or maybe not their taste. I'm always curious behind the reasons. xD

    Ya know, I feel I am a good hearted person and don't understand why bad things happen to me at times and why people treat me the way they do.

    Better get used to it because it seems to happen all the time now. People are leaving plain and simple. For some reason or other it's become a sort of fad to leave then return under a different name. So don't be surprised if you get a replacement soon lol

    Bear in mind that people do get their accounts deleted.  It's quite possible you're losing fans who were only ever spammers anyway - they're precisely the people who join and do a lot of "fanning".  Maybe HubPages is doing a cleanout!

    I think word is getting around that excessive "fanning" hurts your HubScore, so perhaps a few people are cutting back, too.
