Look at the guy http://hubpages.com/profile/gordojays
He has two average quality hubs, two decent fans and at least one comment - and his hubscore is still 0! Yes, I know that he joined just a dozen hours ago - but still... 0 seems to be abnormal to me...
Misha, I have no idea.
But you're right; I'd expect that guy's score to be at least 20 or so by now. Perhaps another small glitch?
Normally, though you publish only one hub, I remembered that your score will be 50, the same score with your hub. Any explanation about this one? Does HubPages modifies the rule?
Could it be pirate discrimination? (I'm sorry... it's late and I should probably go to bed instead of being silly here, but...)
The only thing I can think is that perhaps his IP address is on some sort of blacklist? It could just be a glitch of some sort, too.
I love a good mystery!

Hello! So, I am brand new here. I have been writing hubs for about 3 weeks. So far I have about 12 of them publish and I have a score of 88. I was just wondering if a score of 88 is good for a beginner or if it should be higher. Thanks. Also, I was wondering if...

I think I know the answers I will get from my fellow hubbers on this topic. But what is funny is that two days of no activity from me in Hubpages has dragged my Hubscore from 79 to 74. How fair is that? I cannot go on contributing every second of every minute of every hour of every day of...

I have read how hubscore is computed but was still surprised the other day when I saw a hubscore of 1. It just is somewhat amazing to me that some hubscores are 10 or below. Don't get me wrong----I'm really not trying to be judgemental or holier than thou or anything it's just I...

It's often been suggested that one of the factors involved in one's personal HubScore is engagement in the community. So, I tested the theory.Over a period of four weeks I responded to 132 submissions from hopeful contributors most of whom had no clue what HubPages is about. In the normal course, I...
