I Am So Big Headed

   But hey, I made it to 100. 
   
   I know it's a fleeting thing, and I won't bother posting if it ever happens again, but it makes that fifteen minutes of effort writing hubs and flaming people on forums so worthwhile.
   
   100.  I'd better post this quick before it vanishes.

      Well I still see 100, that flaming the forums must work!
      Not that the fifteen minutes of effort isn't a good bedrock but the forum flaming is likely what pushes you to the top

         lol - yes - just the right amount of personal abuse, particularly in the religious section or on people's hubs seems to be the secret.

            I do wonder why there are not more 100's, considering the content of just about every religious thread going on the forums on any day of your choosing. Honestly, you need to work on the personal abuse one, you are far to funny to come across as abusive to me. Now there are other hubbers I could mention

                  I was at 100 a day or so ago
                  It happened just after I published a hub, maybe I need to publish another good one

                     You are absolutely correct.  So it does.  I hadn't noticed that before.  I still think it's authorscore, because hubscore is what's on your hubs surely?

      Thanks frogdropping.
      
      I have loved almost every minute of it so far.  Learning the software, creating that first hub, response from fellow hubbers, hits from the outside world, a few pennies, the dreaded keyword stuff.
      
      There are two main elements though that really hit the spot for me.  One is writing, being a writer of sorts in a very small way - and the other is the general niceness, goodness, helpfulness of other Hubbers.  I know that sounds a bit trite but I've been on other forums and it is nothing like this.

      Although it may seem a shallow and pointless vanity exercise it does indeed make me very happy.
      
      How did I do it?  By spending every waking minute on here for two months...
      
      Not quite true.  But not far off.
      
      1. Create a variety of hubs, ie. under different topics, subjects.
      2. Answer questions,
      3. Ask a few questions.
      4. Post on forums. Obviously.
      5. Make the odd comment.
      6. Some hub hopping.
      
      Can't think of anything else.

         You are a star.  I am always delighted to see someone achieve their goals.  i am so lazy but maybe i could do it if i really wanted to.  I tell you it would make me happy too.  I often start looking at all the hubbers who score a hundred, and read their work, and i wish i could do it.... but laziness is my weakness
         
           Very Well Done.  I would love to put a picture on for you but i forgot how to do it.

            Well it wasn't really a goal as such.  And to be on page 2 of the 'best hubbers' with that stupid profile picture that I scribbled in two minutes... if I were less shallow I might be a little embarassed.
