I wrote a request called "With the rise of social networking, is the internet now mainly for recreation or business?" because I thought this would result in a number of different views from various users.
It's been 'removed by moderator' and I don't understand why. It's not promotional or adult orintated - it's just a question about the current trend of using the internet as a social and recreational tool instead of a business tool.
Can anyone give me an idea why it might have been dumped?

When you enter a request, this is the text at the top:
HubPages Requests are where you can ask for detailed information or advice in the form of a Hub. Requests are not for simple expressions of opinion ("What is your favorite...") or very simple questions ("What is a..."). Put in a Request for questions you simply can't find good enough answers already on the Web.

Thanks Jason,
Just a bit of re-wording needed then. Perhaps I should have read the page a bit more clearly!
No worries. If you'd like to make it the starting point for a discussion about opinions, you might consider starting it as a topic in the Technology Forum.

Not sure how it would fit in 'technology' although it might be worth starting an opinions forum!
...No, then again it would just end up becoming a slagging match
Speaking of the rise of social networking:

Is there an etiquette with regard to getting requests and not answering them? Somehow it just seems rude to delete them and ignore the requester; but if we e.mail them to politely decline there's the chance that all they wanted was our e.mail anyway.Yesterday morning, before I even had my...

Sometimes I stumble upon a HubPages request that could be answered by a Hub I've already written... but of course I couldn't submit another such Hub. There should be a way to use a Hub already made in order to answer a request.

I know that hubpages really pushes for new hubs to be created, and rightfully so. However, I'm thinking it would be nice to be able to "answer a hub request" with an existing hub.So if someone does a hub request for something I've written on (revver videos, for example), I can simply...
