      Perhaps we need a new help section addition telling us what anything means anymore.    It is sadly funny--an oxymoron, no doubt-- when there are many folks wondering what is required to achieve the elusive and fleeting HD dollar while someone extremely new here does it with very little effort or indication as to why or how.

            Yeah sure, the luckiest hubber to have ever joined HP!   And if hot traffic was any indication of what was required to achieve a 100 profile score, then I would've never made any of the many dollars posted on my avatar in the past.  So this also does not compute, Tony.

   Actually this is a great opportunity to discover what is required for getting a 100 profile.  Unless I'm mistaken-and I'm not elite so this is entirely possible--this member has the least amount of hubs, especially informative ones, to examine for hints as to what factors determine the mysterious HP Dollar.
   
   And so far as I can tell, there's nothing which jumps out at me as being particularly dollarish!  But then, I'm merely a commoner not trained enough to make such an important distinction in word values, as has been so succinctly pointed out by my superiors recently. 
   
   But here is a great chance for someone who does have the capabilities and besides, this member's first 11 hubs could be pointed to as how to achieve a 100 profile when the elite are asked by the newbies.  A win-win situation for both!

    That undeserving hubbers reach this number is undeniable - I have had that dollar several times and each time I look at the others on the list and think that I am definitely not in the company of my peers.
    
    I have little traffic, few followers, seldom answer questions and mostly get into fights on the forums.  The system is flawed. No question about that!

             And I'd liked to suggest we  select some HP Gods among ourselves before the title is snapped up to be used as titles for those Hubbers never having written or published anything on the site.  We pre-empt it, so to speak.  Anyone want to be called a god?  Volunteers only and no credentials required, of course!

       Page views appear to have nothing to do with Hubscore.
       
       I just had a Hub go viral (yay!) and the Hubscore is dropping even as visits, likes, Tweets, comments, etc continue to climb.
       
       But I don't care! I have the last nut in the tin! (and, far more importantly, ad impressions.) 
       
       Of course, our profile score is based on many more factors and all our hubs. With or without nuts.
