    What is the use of Social Hub in ISC?

    I was wondering and trying to find out how an author can use Social Hub section. Could someone throw a direct light on this section?

    As per my understanding the social hub was a place for the members to interact in an informal way for congratulating or wishing each other but slowly lost its charm and presently very few members might be using it.

    It used to serve as a 'status' for ISCians. You can understand this by going through the old posts in that section. By the gradual changes happening in the site social hub section has now almost become redundant or superfluous. Now that the site has become a purely educational site I am no sure whether the social hub section will be allowed to continue or if so what changes will be there.
    Also please read the below given two forum threads about Social Hub

    Initially Social Hub was supposed to be a platform for sending our messages to the members for recognition of their talents which the members have shown in their different write ups. These messages worked their best to motivate the members but slowly, this section has lost its original values. This is evident from the low participation of the members.

    Social Hub section helps us in many ways.
    1. It tells other members when you check your earning from this site.
    2. It helps a member to ask meaningless questions (which are not accepted in Ask expert section.
    3. It allows some new members to post half-hearted self-introduction.
    4. It informs other members when a particular member gets any virtual gift from an editor or from any other member.
    5. Finally, when I was active on this platform, I occasionally used this section to inform other members about my grievances against the editors or about deletion of my posts on flimsy/ridiculous grounds.

    In this social hub, one can post the details and status of the individual at a point in time. It will allow others to know when you recalculated your earnings on this site. We can also wish others use this social hub. But very rarely do people go there and post something there but whatever information comes automatically will be visible there. In between for some time I used to visit that page but now very rarely do I go there.
