Honestly, Hubski hasn't been as great at encouraging intelligent discussion as it could/should be. Certainly not as good as I'd hoped. Since joining, I've seen repeatedly that certain users utterly reject opinions they don't like, and go out of their way to chase those users around. Or they'll just throw fits at a notion they don't like and loudly abstain, as if their abstention from an activity is supposed to manipulate people into not doing it.

Hubski is a good attempt, but it isn't perfect.
