It looks like bux.gs era is over for some time. Unless admin finds a new paypal account and starts a new site, I don't think we will see him for some time.
He can still open a site with just alertpay funds but it won't be the same because paypal payments are the most popular. A site with just LR and AP would be cool but I'm not sure it would work as good as a site with both alertpay and paypal.
What I'm talking about is that bux.gs paypal was closed forever because paypal saw too many disputes from bux.gs paypal account and decided that the account was at high risk.
I personally dislike this because I loved the site and I got paid four time. It was a good site with high minimum payout. Unlike other sites, bux.gs paid for a very long time and when a site pay for a long time, the minimum payout can be a little high.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that (at least) the third time that the same admin has lost a site to Paypal?
I am still owed earnings from the previous two

He should have dealt with those usera that were/are still owed funds on the other two first
Hopefully he will not open up yet another site

Well, once they open a dispute nothing will help. Even if he actually will dispute the money it will be too late because it was reported to paypal and they are crazy.

This bux thing is still going huh? I can't believe how many people have been ripped off..
I am still owed over 800 bucks from the original bux site.. Paid me once then never again.. They just don't work but the owners seem to move on and make another one. Seems like they must have scammed half the world by now, probably sitting on a beach somewhere - sipping away..
