I am about to throw them on the floor and stomp them to bits. I have been waiting for over 2 years for a bloom and nothing, nothing at all. It doesn't seem like anyone else has to wait that long.
No Blooms Yet
Makshi,
What kind of Hoyas are you trying to get to bloom? Some take considerably longer to bloom than others. I waited five years for my first carnosa bloom. Other Hoyas can bloom in less than a year from a cutting. It really makes a great difference in the species you are trying to get to bloom.

One of the hoyas are Rubra, and Hindu Rope. I have others but these are the two that I was trying to find out if they will ever bloom.
Those could take several years to bloom. I've been waiting for about 5 years for one of my carnosas to bloom (and both of your hoyas are carnosa cultivars). They can take up to 7-10 years to bloom. The best thing I learned with hoyas is patience!
Of course, there are some things you can do to help the blooming process along (sufficient light, keeping them in smaller pots so they are more rootbound, fertilizing). Try doing a search on here if you want some more tips. But 2 years is not an excessive time to wait for blooms. If you're really eager for some blooms, try getting a fast bloomer like multiflora, lacunosa, obscura..

Heck I could be up above before the darn things bloom. Guess I better leave them to someone in my will. :)
