I was sad when I learned that people were not submitting original articles at Bubblews / myLot

I was a featured writer at Bubblews. Then one day I found out another user had copied my article and put his name down as the writer. I had him booted off the site but had I not noticed this, I would have been very unhappy. I had over 300 likes from one article and it was fun to write it. But never realized that site I used to know and love at one time, back in the day, had so many plagiarizers and spammers that the site's big bubble just went pop!

I wasn't in any kind of competition with others there. But when I got featured it also meant I would get more likes thus, a little more pay.

Part of the problem was that Bubblews didn't seem to care. I often reported plagiarised content when I saw it. Sometimes it was deleted, but other times it was still there weeks later. Strangely my only knowledge of having one of my own posts plagiarised was when I wrote a post about a plagiariser and he thought it would be a good joke to republish that post, accusing himself. Thankfully Bubblews did delete that one.
