    Is anyone else getting spammy link after link on their hubs? I'm about sick of chasing up dropped links abut ugg boots. I'm going to sell my own thanks neutral

    Oh and how many more hubbers are going to 'follow' me and ask I return the favor? Please - stop it. Read hubbers work because you like what they do.

    You don't have to become a fan of anyone. It's ok to just read and wander off elsewhere around the site smile

      You can change the comment notification on by editing your profile settings, through 'my account.' 

      Oh, and I have been having the spam show up between comments that I have approved, days later.  How are they sneaking it in?

    lol guys - I already have some. I remeber seeing a post somewhere about one of our hubbers thinking they're not so cool on women - uggs that is.

    I love mine. I don't care if my feet look stolen from a grizzly. They're warm smile

    And those links - I keep trawling round and round my hubs and fidning them. Pain in the shuck end, so they are neutral

      i don't know how they manage to escape Hubpages' notification of their comments, but they do. many times their ads, i mean ads with long lists of boots, descriptions and prices will be sitting there on my hubs for a couple of weeks until i stumble onto it by chance. they are very clever, these spammers yikes

    The best thing to do is to flag it as spam and then delete it, it helps to make the system know about the frequent spammers!
