Just a scream Actually I am enjoying the torment. I must admit it is superb marketing technique. My hat off and a bow to the creator of this formula. It is a perfect incentive for writers, a motivating and inspiration tool. But (sigh) it is going to drive me crazy! What does it do to you?
A watched kettle will never boil and fretting about your hubberscore will not make it go up. Relax and forget about it for a couple of weeks and you'll be surprised at how much it has improved.
LOL! I did not worry about it, but now it keeps on dropping and I'm LMAO for myself because I'm freaking out about this.
It got me!
Help!
Let it fall, just concentrate on google.
Martie, I've learned that I just can't pay any attention to it - at all. I think all anyone can do is try write decent Hubs, do their thing, and participate on things like reading other people's Hubs, voting, etc. Most people who do that end up with a decent enough score range (and you have to OK with "decent enough range"). I don't pretend to be so immune to scores that I'm thrilled to see my drop, but that's how they work; so after awhile you just ignore it all. I pretty much ignore my best score too.
Thanks for the advice, Liza. I am actually doing all of it. Really, I am laughing all the way. I cannot believe that this gadget called hubberscore affects me all off a sudden like this. I was so amazed when I saw I’ve got 95, but when I look again, 94... 93... 92... and now I’m freaking out. Like a little girl in an amusement park!
earnesthub, analyzing my silly reaction on my score, I better not concentrate on Google. That one, I am sure, will through me for a six!
See saw!! it has to up, now that it is down. Don't worry!!
Martie, I think primary/elementary school has us all conditioned when it comes to scores, grades, etc. It can take decades for us to get past all that "damage".
I agree with you, Liza! Another prove of the fact that the only thing that goes up and never comes down is AGE.

The fireworks are just starting in my neighborhood. Being down south, I am at least glad no one is shooting at full gas cans with shot guns...but the night is young.

Oh, god, my boyfriend just called to let me know that he'd been laid off! He's been at the company for almost nine years. He came by when he was on his way home, (we live less than a few blocks from one another,) and there was much hugging and trying to be supportive, but we're both...

Hey guys...I wanted to ask for your prayers and your good thoughts. I have a mole on the back of my head, it's big, but I've had it all my life. Where it is positioned, I have to ask the hair dressers to be careufl because they can and sometimes do hit it, making it bleed and everything.Today while...

I was talking to a couple of nice friendly neighborhood Jehovah's Witnesses yesterday (there's a Kingdom Hall just around the corner from where I live so I tend to get them quite frequently) and we eventually got on to the subject of the existence of Jesus Christ.They seemed somewhat taken aback...
