Bubblews. I feel sorry for people that are still waiting for payment. Some feel they are being passed by. Not really anything anyone can do is there? It's like beating a worn out rug or something. What is the use? I left there about eight months ago. It had slowed down so much and getting that last payment seemed like a fleeting prospect at best. I still have about $18 left before I would ever make pay-out. Some seem to be okay with waiting weeks, even months for their payment. I just think it is ludicrous. I have never worked on a site that didn't pay me right away. And, now it even seems to some folks like they are being worked around and not paid for some reason. Others who sent their requests in earlier are getting paid while these others are not. I remember when it was a really enjoyable site. Now it is just a joke. I started hearing about Arvind's attempts at starting new things up like that app. What a joke! It's as if he was just using Bubblews to make some money and then moving on. Without even honoring the members he left behind. What a spineless individual. Can't we just tip our hats to that site and go forward now? Why keep beating at something that is just going to cause us frustration, irritation and bad feelings? I can see it if you have applied for payment and are now waiting, but, how long is long enough? And how many emails do you have to send before you realize that the captain has left the ship? Image: Flickr.com

What can I say about Bubblews? It was a good ride while it lasted, had some fun, had some laughs, made some dollars. Perhaps we should have seen the wheels falling off of the bus when the payment gap widened, from three days to a week to two weeks to a month to....well, don't call us, we'll call you, maybe. I agree, it's time for us to move forward. Fine new avenues. Cherish the memories, cherish the good times we had, with some good people. Don't let the people running the outfit occupy another moment of the thoughts. Heck, I don't really think about Bubblews unless I see it brought up by someone else. "Oh yes, I remember."

Yes! I recall the good times but there aren't any anymore. We need to move on. I just hate hearing of these people that are still there and still waiting for something that may or may not come.

I think about it less now that I can satisfy my "random writing mojo" over here.

@celticeagle Still there and waiting for something to happen is silly. It's like having your sweetheart cheat on you six times and thinking the seventh won't happen.

It's hard to just forget something when you put that much time, heart, and energy into it. But I agree that we should try.

I think it is time. We have this great site to work on and be appreciative of now. Why look back? That bugs me.

I drifted away from the site purely due to the lack of activity. As for payout, I was not in the slightest concerned and just accepted that it was time to move on.

@celticeagle I never even bothered trying to carry on until reaching the payout level, there is no point if I am not enjoying the site any more.

I did the same thing. Today I went over there and I actually decided to try to reach pay out and then I am finisshed up there. I just better get paid.

@Asylum ....I agree. I didn't feel connected at all and was over there yesterday. I just hate to let all that I have accumulated go by the way side.

It is sad, what has happened. Especially those holding out hope for payment. I know I still go there to keep in touch with many good people I met there, but otherwise, not much more can be said.

I'd get those 'good ones' to come over here and then leave bub behind.

I wonder if they'll do another "random payment" if traffic gets too slow over there.

@TheHorse , I guess they would, if it pulls people back like the few payments now did, then I can see them doing it again.

I was reading on line that that device he was touting was not his and he's been sued. I know everything you read is not true but it made me laugh. He certainly isn't interested in the website now and neither am I. I do go every once in a while to see who is still there and to see how many cheaters I can flag in 10 minutes - its a new game of mine - the time limit. 10 minutes is all the site is worth now.

@PainsOnSlate ....That is a nice thought of you to do that. Yeah, it is pretty much of a ghost site anymore.

Great game you have there. I decided I am going to try to reach pay out. Then I am done. I need the money and only have $17.99 left which will probably take about three years to complete.LOL

@celticeagle It might take you longer and it might not. Time will let us know. I cashed out the end of January and I now have 17 dollars plus change. If I could, I would give it to you I would but I don't think that is allowed. I'm not staying there any more than my 10 minutes a day. All the trash I flagged yesterday is still there so I think even nameless the monoter has left the building.

This is a very good point you have made here. I never joined this site and now it i closing I see many unhappy people who jumped ship and came here. Now instead of just letting the ship sink they try to keep it a float here. Sad but you pointed this out and made a good point.

Yeah, it is sad the way it turned out. I have rethought the situation and I am going to try to reach pay out there because I need the money.

@celticeagle That is a good idea and I hope it will work for you on this one. Sort of sounded like nobody will even go there anymore to comment.

I think it is time to just move on and drop all the bitterness but many people can't seem to do that. I think it is easier since I got that last payment. I am not completely done with them yet myself

Before I joined MyLot - - that was last week - - my Bubblews bank was showing $33.35 . . I am still posting and interacting in there . . and my bank is showing $33.39! My last redemption was mid-December, 2014. Here in MyLot after 7 days of mostly interacting (commenting/liking) . . my bank is showing almost 4 dollars. . . I guess I should interact more!

Yes, And that is another problem I have with bub. Why spend time there at less than a snails pace when you could spend time here and actually make a little money? I don't get it!
