    Should HubPages put limits on the number of questions a person asks within a 24-hour period?

    Are you tired of seeing numerous questions asked by the same people day in and day out? Do you think by limiting questions asked per day, this may actually encourage others to be more active in the questions section?

    I post question maybe 1 - 3 times a month. Closer to one. When I do I tend to post three questions. And, I am at HP at about 2AM, so they usually leave the feed by the time people get here. Yet, they are at the Q&A. Anyway . . . I thought they did have a limit once upon a time. Unsure.

    I am not really tired of numerous posts, although is noticeable. I am looking for writing prompts and research ideas for possible Hubs when I scan them. So, to me the more the merrier kinda' thing.

    I am not sure about if limiting them will prompt more activity. I think as far as the feed goes that runs in spurts when a Hubber arrives. Like me being here at 2AM. Activity is slow, so the questions asked on it lingers for bit and a byte of time.

      I don't ask too many questions either. I was really just curious how others felt about this subject.

      I can understand the curiosity. It kinda comes down to there is much less participation than years ago. So, I think we notice more easily the activity here. Unsure, but that is a perception I have.

      You make an excellent point. There isn't the participation and interactions here like in the old days. That's too bad too because the old HubPages was a lot of fun.

      Dennis, there is already a 5 question limit per day. It this is a problem for you, maybe you should look elsewhere for your viewing pleasure.
      Maybe you should petition hp to just remove the questions area. I don't see your point.

      @bradmasterOCcal - Perhaps you should realize you aren't the only one allowed to ask questions here. Furthermore, no one forced you to respond to this question. Your snarky response is not appreciated.

      Dennis read what you said, and see who is the snarky one. Dennis what is your point.

      Brad - You are the one who sarcastically said, "maybe you should look elsewhere for your viewing pleasure." I've been here for years and I'll look elsewhere if and when I want to. You must be like a fish out of water living in Orange County.

    It seems like there was a limit at some point. Maybe 10 questions? I'm not sure if that's still in effect or not.

      There is a LIMIT, if a person elect to ask too many questions, it simply indicates that the person reached a LIMIT & to come back later.

      Ha! Of course you would know this. Do you know what the limit number is, or is it just random?

    They do LIMIT how many questions one asks per day.  If a person starts to ask too many questions, it says that lh/she has reached their limit in asking questions, come back later.
