As many of you here have been as well, I am sure, I have been on many sites over the years, and I know that some of you have met me on some of those other sites. Some I know exactly where I met the person. Others it's a bit more of a 'mystery.'
I have pretty much always used Porwest as my name. Although on HubPages I am known as Springboard.
Here are the sites I have been on (there are a couple others but I really don't remember them):
HubPages
WebAnswers
Bubblews
Niume
...and of course MyLot
So where did we first meet?

I have had a love for writing as far back as eight. I wrote much more fiction early on. These days it's relegated to sites like this and blogging. But I still love it even if I what I do here is probably a far cry from actual 'writing.'

@porwest I did too. :)
Since then no other sites. Wish I knew about Bubblews ~ did not know about it until after it closed.

@infatuatedbby It was a great site, and you could make LOTS of money there. But that was part of the problem. There were actually a couple of people there who swore that Bubblews was the next best thing to a job. You COULD make thousands of dollars a year over there. But it was unsustainable and anyone with half a brain KNEW the thing was farfetched and the site had it very wrong as to what was a realistic model and payout. We wrote there because WHY NOT cash in on it if they were wiling to pay the exorbitant amounts. But when the thing came crashing down, any of us who had that half a brain were not at all surprised it could not work.
We get paid FAR LESS here. BUT, I think the admin has the right model, and I will take smaller payouts to keep it going for as long as it can go on any day of the week over a huge payout that cannot last at all.

@porwest Spoken like a true married man who's used to being tactful when talking about women.
