Hubpages is not serious about website abuse (by the way, no one is abusing them right away ).
If they are really serious, then implement these-
1) Make it mandatory for everyone to have published at least 10 'quality' hubs, to participate in these forums. Will hubpages do that? Why will they? Most people come here for fun; they will not disappoint them with a task of 10 hubs.
2) Make it strictly compulsory to have SMS-verification completed, for anyone willing to join these forum. It's just what Google does before you can create a GMAIL account. Implementing this will totally eradicate all abusers. Will hubpages implement this one. To begin with, they perhaps lack funds to make it a reality. .
HubPages will always have.
I agree with you. Something needs to be done about the abuse that some users mete out to others.
If they did that you would not be here. you have yet to WRITE a single hub?
Embedding a few videos may pass as a hub but it is not written?
Reality bites is right - videos don't make a hub they're a part of it. So don't give suggestions that will throw you out of here. However, you've got a good point. See that you write your first 10 before your plan is implemented
The starter of this thread is just another sock puppet. Only here to stir things up.

"Studies show that traffic from Google+ to sites that have the +1 button is 3.5 x greater than traffic from Google+ to sites without the +1 button."[redacted]Tell me again why we don't have the G+ button available on our hubs?

I think Hubpages need to allow/implement EMOTICONS ....What do you think?Emoticons is very prevalent in the world we live in today, especially amongst social engagements .There are thousands of emoticon apps so we can express our facial and mood expressions.

Hello fellow hubbers, I thought of an idea that why not give the hubpages elite team special type of accolades. Our Elite team do lot of work and they have many big responsibilities also! They have to go through all readers hubs and flag or vote up or start hopping these hubs! The elite team has to...
