When reviewing a comment on a post, you find that it is disjointed, and lacks punctuation, do you approve it?
If someone commented on my hub, I would approve it. Even if they are critical of my hub, I approve - why should we only approve positive comments?
That was my first inclination also. I do not want to judge.
What really got me thinking about this was something I read here about content generators, and how they are used to post and create hubs. I'm not sure what a content generator is, but this comment sounded very similar to what was being described. I have since cut and paste the comment into another post under this forum topic if you would like to view it. I am very new to all of this, less than a week, and I definitely want to give and get grace. But the discussion I remember reading was concerned with quality of the hubpages in general. And I do realize that comments probably do not affect the overall quality of hubpages.
Here is the comment that I am speaking of:
I do remember how wringer washer and put rubber diapers through that wringer diapers and explodes and I ruined a couple of shirts
Did you ever get anything caught in a wringer?or ruined a couple of shirts?
an article of the wash may
wrap several times around a roller before it is noticed; unwinding such a
piece is often difficult, sometimes impossible without removing a roller.
The person took the time to comment. What harm in approving?
Thank yo for taking time to answer my question. You are right.
Why not? maybe they're typing in comment from a phone.
Thank you for the input. I never thought about that. It is much harder to type from a phone.
I generally approve all comments except the very obvious spam -- i.e, a comment that is about buying a new cell phone app when the hub is about cooking or something.
Thank yoy for your response. I am trying to learn the ropes.

If I view my account's Comments page, it's easy to view, approve and respond to unapproved comments. However, if I go to a new comment in one of my hubs and click Approve, I cannot reply to it directly on the comment. Instead, I have to go to my main Comments page and find the now approved comment...

I tried to post this in the answers section-where I think the question should be-but I kept being told the question had already been asked by someone else-not true-and I couldn't post it. This is directed only to hubbers who tend to respond to all comments left on their hub, rather than never...

When I post a comment to someone's hub including a question and they approve it, but do not answer the question, does that mean they have no manners? In your opinion.

I published my first political hub and it was featured as all my hubs have been.I cannot believe how ferocious one particular political hubber is because she disagrees with me. This one person will not stop. I answered two of this lost soul's comments and received answers that were too...

For the last ten days I do not seem to be able to reply to the 12 comments that I have received on various posts. After having read an article and having left a comment, that does not seem to work either. I have mentioned this glitch on the hubpage Facebook pages and now again here. Please...

I seem to recall that authors should not visit their own pages (maybe its an adsense thing?) so I wanted to find out if there is a "correct" way to respond to comments on our own hubs. Should we just click on them at the initial login page or go into "my account" or is...
