How to block someone here, unfollow doesn't work at all!
Is there a way to block other hubbers since I'm constantly getting updates from an annoying member that I'm not following anymore?
You can't block someone, unfortunately but you can adjust your notification settings by adjusting your status updates. On your homepage/feed click on filters. Where it says filter by types click edit. You will see a list of check boxes, just tick the ones which apply to you. That should stop you from getting notified in your feed. If you stop following someone you should not be getting emails from their activities. Double check to make sure you are not still following them.
You can also adjust you email notifications by going to your account/following and adjust the settings for each item on the list. You may have commented on a hub of the person before you stop following but is till getting notified. In the hubs you follow section you will see a list of the hubs you follow just click unflollow for the ones you no longer which to follow.
Change your settings in your profile. In addition to unfollowing, you may have updates coming from questions, forums, answers to your questions, etc...so change your settings to getting updates from only those you follow.
Yeah like other folks have said, changing your settings should fix that. I also wish it would be possible to block people, but it is not. There isn't anyone specific that I want to block, but it would still be a good option to have.
You can change your notification settings for that Blocking options isn't available here on HB.

I am literally sick and tired of people who follow you, and then, when you follow them back, they promptly unfollow you. Really, people? What do you do when someone unfollows you shortly after you follow them? Do you hunt them down and unfollow them as well? Do you send them mail saying what they...

I noticed recently after I followed someone in error, that I couldn't stop following them. Is this a new feature that when we follow another hubber, it's for ever now? Because this function is not working!

Does it hurt your feelings when someone unfollows you?I must admit I feel disappointment. I feel I have let my followers down when I notice my following number has decreased. Why do you unfollow?

When I first started out with hubpages I followed hundreds of people, because I wanted them to follow me back, because I though that's how you get readers to come to your hub. I recently found out that following a lot of people reduces your hubscore, plus I cancelled my updates on the hubbers I...

I am new to HubPages and still learning my way around - but really enjoying it so far! But I had someone start to 'follow' me and I presume because I didn't follow her back, she 'unfollowed' me. I'm not following anyone right now, just trying to get up and running first and have lots else to do but...

Why do followers stop following ?I have lost 3 followers this week for no apparent reason. I wonder what people's reasons are for unfollowing each other. Why follow in the first place? My suspicious mind tells me it is people who only followed me originally to try to increase their own flock of...
