I am not sure how to go about this, but I would like to report a new hubber, called "flowerswift", who is posting a series of hubs which are blatant advertisements for an online floristry service in various cities atound America.
The flowers are very pretty, but this person should not be allowed to advertise in this way.
If you wish to flag a hub, please use the reporting feature built into the Hub. It's a small link that says "flag" and it lets you send a report to the HubPages team. Or you can email the team directly.
Cluttering up the forums isn't the proper way to handle this.
Further to my earlier post, I see that there is another hubber, called "flower delivery" who is doing something very similar, and who joined HubPages at the same time. Could they by any chance be the same person?
It would fall under the 'overly promotional' category probably.. you can always flag hubs if you feel like policing the world.... but I find myself intrigued. Why do you care? Hub Pages has tens of thousands of users all writing all sorts of things. One rogue florist seems harmless enough...
Yes, but if you let one spammer keep on posting, then another, then another, before you know it all that is on a site is spam.
I would report him/her directly to team@hubpages.com.

Wow - I've never had this happen in the 2 years I've been here. Someone left a comment on one of my hubs - calling me an idiot and saying a bunch of hateful things....wow, don't know what to do except just ignore it I guess. Has anyone else had this happen and how did you respond? For the first...

I stumbled across this hub on my news feed several days ago, and tried to step up and offer support and encouragement for a brand new hubber whose beliefs differ from my own but who is being grossly mistreated by fellow hubbers. How on earth is this behavior tolerated and allowed to...

What can a hubber do to ensure that only relevant ads appear on his/her profile and hubs?I've been on Hubpages for about 14 months now, and I notice that almost all the ads that appear on my profile and hubs are totally unrelated to the content on the page. I've looked for resources on how to make...
