Dear Seasoned Hubbers
Us keen 'Noobs' (newbie) Hubbers were wondering if we could hear from experienced Hubbers, about if there are any unwritten laws for Hub Pages?
All strong & flourishing communities seem to have their own general unwritten laws, (& can be some of the most important ones) & from initial impressions, it seems that there is a great writing community present here. So, along with it, it's strongly suspected that there may be some U.L's for Noobs to imbibe.
Now if this is the case, because they are U.Ls, they can generally not be spoken/written about but rather picked up in more subtle ways.
So...if any exp. Hubbers feel they would like to pass on an U.L. to us 'Noobs', then maybe it could be done with the use of a riddle or Morse-code or any other creative & unwritten ways.
Happy Chrissy.

Merry Christmas to you too,
None that I know of,
I could only think of "RESPECT" should be accorded everybody specially in the forum, somtimes things got nasty but then you just have a choice not to join forums of your choice, and you can share your opinions but be 'respectful" at all times,,
WELCOME, and may you have more fun here at HP
There are unwritten laws, but we wont tell you till you break them
I don't think this one is written anywhere but a good one is this: Don't promote your hubs, promote yourself instead!
Welcome to HP. As with all communities, there are always ULs. As Prettydarkhorse stated, RESPECT is the greatest of them all. Be honest, truthful and have a sense of humor. Enjoy yourself here at HP!
Yeah, and you may have noticed that there are two factions here at hp. One of them is of those who use avatars with their pets in them (dogs, cats, horses, giraffes), the other is of those who don't. On certain days of the week, the people with the pets avatars can be trusted, while on other days the members of the other faction are trustworthy. You have to figure out the days yourself though.
Oh and one more thing - you can't trust both of them at the same time, but since people keep changing their avatars and so their factions, be very careful with reading older posts.
Thanks for Asking.... Everyone seems to have neglected to tell you that the 2010 Xmas Party Fund starts again on Dec 26th 2009.
What that means is.... that every time you don't answer a question or request made of you during the next twelve months.. you will be required to donate $5.00 to the fund.
Please make sure that you check your emails after 26/12, as I'm sure you will have several requests made of you.
Actually, I'd like to ask you one now!
"What do you think about that huh?"
BTW.. Welcome to HP Good Luck with your writing
(You'll need to make some bucks for the xmas party )
Shhhhh Gin..... He's an Ozie
You have a good one m'lady
Thank you, PearlD hope you having a wonderful time, don't chase the ladies under the mistletoe too much
No worries about that DS there aren't Any Ladies in BumbleTown
O please are you looking at them or hiding
lol
I'm still new but this forum seems to be pretty open and relaxed. At first I was surprised at all the post about religion, sex and so on here.
Most forums shy away from that stuff and even ban them. But they seem to almost love them here,lol! Even the adult forums I belong to stay away from some of the subjects you find here.
Just treat everyone with respect, NEVER make a link to your own website or blog ( I learned that the hard way) and don't get pissed if others don't share your point of view.
Some Very Cool & Swift Forum Lovin' goin on in here here Guys!
Some interestin' unwritten laws too.
Now...How do I add ya all ta my fan-list at once?
Ciao,
Hammers.
