Bubblews - do you get tired of reading about it?

I haven't seen or read the name "Bubblews" so much since I wrote there. It seems to be an obsession on this site! I venture to guess that a huge percentage of the members here are former Bubblers. I know when I started writing at Persona Paper I wrote about Bubblews and was criticized for doing so. Not by the admins. of the site, but by some who said they just didn't want to hear any more about it.
I wrote there during the big money days. Yes, I know, they paid us too much, but that certainly wasn't the writers' fault. But that's all water under the bridge. I've moved on and am quite happy not having to bust my butt for nothing.
So, with that said, do you think Bubblews is getting too much airtime?

You won't find me naming a website unless I want to refer to something on it as a reference. Perhaps the topic of social media is a strong one because people get involved with it, perhaps. I got in a habit to referring to bubbleland as a fictional place that people reside in. It is their lot to do so.

I too prefer not to mention that site as a sign of respect of how I like myLot a lot.

I think it does get mentioned too much. People who don't like it should just leave it alone.

Some newbies here are old Bubblers. I don't mind since I also went there when this site stopped paying. I did manage to earn a some $50 back when they had a better payment scheme. At least it was better for us then and maybe bad for them that they had to change their payment scheme a few times to what it is now.
But yeah I guess they just need some time to move on from the site since myLot is so much fun!

I think it is good to mention it as 1/. Former members can find each other here and reacquaint. 2/. It was a big part of many lives as before it got ugly Bubblews paid very well indeed. 3/. It warns others to be cautious of such sites. 4/. If Bubblews either improves or vanishes we will be among the first to hear about it.

I try to avoid it, brings back too many bad memories.

I only recently started using bubblews, so I'm not sure what the bad history is about? I haven't had any problems with it. I enjoy writing on there.

@RockChick2015 Even before they announced that they wouldn't be honouring payments for a certain period, a lot of members had problems with payments that just never arrived. When one complained about missing payments, they usually didn't bother to respond.

Well, we used to make big bucks there and then they knew they were in touble and stopped paying (sometimes for no reason) - not just one or two, hundreds of people. I enjoyed it there but I don't like what they did to us. It wasn't right.

@Gina145 There was a huge lack of communication and that's another reason people got angry.

Some people will complain no matter what you write. I've always found that people on other sites want to discuss their experiences at Bubblews and that's been the topic of some of my more successful posts. I haven't tried writing about it here yet as I've run out of things to say.
