The Reason Hub Forums are no longer Fun.
i think so. at least, when i am not logged on, i can see the forums. and i think before i ever signed up i seem to recall reading the forums but i could be wrong. hopefully one of the cool mods will wander in and let us know
*I'd rather aggresively debate than get all huggy, kissy.*
Have you seen some of the gals around here? You might want to reconsider.
I think recent moderation is very one sided, but I said this already.
However I wouldn't generalize and say that forums are no longer fun - there is life outside of politics, you knowI'm still on the loose causing chaos, so there is room to squirm between the men in the white coats.
Name calling is immature and not something even tolerated at preschool level , and Ive heard some very immature comments made to other hubbers....
Rude unless specified is probably ruled at the discretion of management.
Its like this freedom of speech thing/tradition/right, definatley misused (IMHO)...but oh well ,truth is when its not interesting I just go play in another playground
OR do some SEO training, wow that sounded so impressive huh
Jiberish ya know something, good post!
I heard a rumor they were going to replace swear words with the names of awful ex-presidents.
Hah! That will be the George Bush day when they can Jimmy Carter pull that off. Why, I dare them to Richard Nixon try that Gerald Ford with me!
It will never happen, I tell ya ...Teddy Roosevelt?! Why you ... you ... Herbert Hoover!
(I told him!)Ya both nothin but Nixons!
He's only used for minor expletives that are soon forgotten.
Thanks for helping me understand the new expletive rules better. You're both Abe Lincolns

LOL Actually Eltsin did a bunch of good things. May be because he was always drunk?
I seem to remember a vodka flamed Yeltsin blowing the crap out of government owned building, maybe I dreamt that.

I had to look that one up on Wiki
Jib: VERY funny re: coherent!
Hey, don't Jacque Chiraq me, Bill Clinton soiled the office of the Presidency.

You MUST be a Marine
Police say a naked man who appeared to be drunk or on drugs broke into a Louisiana home, cooked himself a meal and took a shower before leaving, wrapped only in a sheet.
Was this You?
original statement made ...
The forums are no longer fun ...
Billy Carter!
They are what we make them ...The only good one was George Washington ... and they had to convince him to take the job ...

I think the community has as much to do with enforcement as the HubPages staff. One reason some people don't get banned is that their "transgessions" go unreported. It was suggested that hubbers who express liberal political opinions are banned less often than those who are more conservative. It could be that liberals are quicker to alert the "government" to a perceived problem.

Ramen! And yes ... the ladies do rock around here! I believe the difference to be that less testosterone makes for a more stable critter.
I did think the ole noodle had a lot of good things to say ... too bad he had to disappear and all.
Those HubPages people are just plain mean. We take great pains to bash each other's heads in with razor-sharp wit and they make us stop in 3 day increments when we get carried away.
LIFE AIN'T FAIR I TELLSYAYeah ... being able to divorce all of your online friends at the click of a fey keys makes it a bit too easy.
I believe that most have second thoughts once they leave, but fail to return as they fear they will be seen differently ... like an ex that walked out on them and decided to return.
My take? Don't announce it ... don't tear down the hubs ... just take a hiatus and think about it. If it feels right, then stick with the vacation ... otherwise, you can return any time and just tell everyone you were on a 'real' vacation and just got back.- Aquaposted 16 years ago0
E.K. - I like your pic! You look happy
I love Aqua ,dont know ya , but ya made my day!!

Right back atcha, cosette. I'm famous for my bubbles, really irritates the husband. Monkey see, monkey do, my kids have inherited the bubble gene, and the love, and they imitate me. It really pisses him off, I think that's part of the reason I enjoy it so. If I'm irritated with him, I'm definitely chewing a big honking piece of Bubble Yum. True story, I used to have stock in the company that made it.
Sold it in college. doh! I had to go and raise up the dead, now didn't I? lmao!
Great ... now everyone will think I'm the noodle - haha!
Ramen!
And I see FSM even has a hub ... impressive ... far better than most aliases who do nothing but show up for fanfare.
I bow to thee FSM, and offer you a fresh jar of Ragu. Ramen!alas ... if only I could be so gifted with brevity - lol!
