-2 Hub score on a featured hub? Is this a glitch?
I am a little confused. I wrote a hub on green self sustaining homeless shelters and my score on it was actually a -2, but it was featured... is this a glitch or is the hub really that bad?
It definitely is a bug. There is no way your score could be -2, especially given the amount of content in the hub.

Apparently it was fixed. Now it's my highest scored hub... okay then... strange. Thanks for the answer!

For a good number of weeks my hubber score has hovered around the 100 mark. Two days ago it started falling, and as I write this, it is down to 89! If this keeps up, it will be 0 in a week! No rhyme or reason to it, but it leaves me wondering why this is happening. I know...

As asked in title. I know it's subjective, but in your opinion, what is the lowest score you would allow an article to remain up before editing or un-publishing it?Understand that I am new here, so putting feelers out on how to do it right!
