Why are Hubbers asking a zillion questions about comforters and bed sets?
What makes this such a hot question topic? I see loads of questions on this topic, few of them address real concerns of someone who might actually be seeking information on how to decorate or purchase a choice for a bedroom. Wouldn't we rather know about differences in filling materials, etc?
This is the same person opening multiple user accounts and asking questions with the same keywords? It is a form of SPAM, and it is ruining this Q&A forum. I wish Hubpages would change their rules a bit, so that someone with an account that is 5 minutes old with no profile information can't post on forums. I feel that a user should be 'established' on the site before they can post. You can report SPAM by clicking on the question, then clicking the 'report' tab just under the 'follow' tab.
I like your idea. On wp blogs there are choices to limit comments that way, and I think some forums have that restriction. Spammers just ruin everything, don't they? Such a hassle to deal with them.
Because they're not real hubbers, they're automated spam-bots, which are a constant irritant in this section.
I should have realized they were spam-bots. There must be too many to moderate. Does everyone learn to stay away from the "unanswered" questions for this reason?
I don't know I saw that . Someone is very confused about why we are hear and what we do!
I would say I still suffer some confusion myself, but those guys are ridiculous!
Hey! I'm doing a head shake -- say what? This is the craziest thing I've heard this week. Yes, I would think I want to know about the filling materials and if it is flammable.
I came to the q&a section ... went to the unanswered questions since the other topics were those I'd already visited and they had multiple answers already. Then I saw the questions were almost all about the same thing.
Well, I am still a bit confused by it all. Like I never in a million years even thought about comforters and bed sets that much. Not until Squidoo and then HubPages. You know? It's a wild world we live in.
I don't know how to choose the best answer- they were all good and shed light on the situation.

When I look at the questions section of hubpages I see pages and pages of silly questions. A lot of the time, when I click on "unanswered" or "latest" I see that the same person has asked ten or so questions in a row. I suspect that in most cases this is because of the fact that...

All of us that have visited the question section know that much of the content there is of very questionable quality. It's difficult to see how many of the questions really contribute to the community or discussion on HubPages at all, ranging as they do from mediocre to banal.Of course, there are...

Have you noticed many more hubbers have started asking many more questions on Hubpages of late?There has been a dramatic increase in the number of questions hubbers ask on hubpages compared to previous times. Many hubbers are struggling to post up to ten questions per day. They could exceed this if...

HI I'm new.. and I think.. that if someone (that isn't a Hub Page Member)visits my Hub page and scrolls to the bottom of my page they can see all the forum activity I have been a part of. I'd rather this info not be available for the world to see... is there a way to "turn off" the...

Some hubbers are taking the mick with it. It's spamming. It's not allowed in the forums. If you want attention promote yourself according to good manners. Not by over spamming in the questions section.

In the learning center, it states that 'The Answers section is a place where Hubbers can ask Questions and receive revenue from 60% of the impressions for that page'. Is this information current and up-to-date?
