Before everytime an unverified person posted a comment on my hub I could see it and approve it, but now I can`t. I see a notice that someone posted a comment, but when I click on it, it doesn`t show the comment. Like it doesn`t exist. This has happened several times now.
Do I have to change my settings or something?
Some unregistered users get blocked for spam, in which event the comment will never make it to your hub. You may be able to find it under your comments, spam, but this is not always the case. Other than that, there is nothing you can do as it is a site-wide issue.
Oh I see, that makes sense, don`t want spam anyway. Thank you

I noticed yesterday that I started getting some spammy comments on my hubs. This morning when I woke up I had an inbox full of them. The weird thing is some of them are almost intelligible and have to do with the topic of the topic of the hub, making it hard to tell between spam and a honest to...

Why would anyone delete a comment on their hub?If I deleted a comment on one of my hubs, I would figure I am not good at dealing with people who might disagree with me. People can agree or disagree, it's a free world. If the comment was mean or nasty, well I'm not the one looking bad,...
