Recently the owner of the site get angry to all the Philippine user for spamming and copying content from other blog and sites then post it in bubblews, meaning most Filipino user have abused the capacity of the site. But please I am begging to all Filipino user to compose yourself and speak freely on the site without copying content to other blogsites. You will get banned and all your effort will go to waste if you still spamming the site. Let us just enjoy the site and share anything without pulling down the whole site and without being pasaway.

Hello airkulet, what a shame. No wonder we are always banned on some other sites too because of the abuse of other people were doing. you know that was actually our discussion a few weeks back when we had that mylot conference in MOA compound in a restaurant were we all ate. i think she was referring to ask.com were that users from the Philippines were banned. .

You are brave to call your fellow countrymen out oj their error in judgment, maybe your public plea wilil be the start of something good. Shortcuts via cheating can end up hurting more than just the offenders. Being of good moral character is still a virtue. Kudos for yor braver.

The truth is I don't want others to copy also my blog post and I don't want to die that site, that's why I'm spreading this news that Filipino users are now in the hot seat because of some abusers

You are like a brave member or brave filipino. To tell you the truth, filipinos are not spammers. Sometimes, they are spamming because they do a lazy or shall we say plagiarism. I did not have any copy but I have a copy of Triond and I am the authorize. Thsnks for sharing duscusiion, airkulet.

Hi. I saw most of the people are Filipino there almost 80%. This is the problem of this site. Most people copy content from other site and paste there. If you are copying too, you have to provide the original link of article in your bubblews article. I don't know how much time will this site survive. Cheers.

Not posting a link to my original articles was a big mistake on my part. The result was deletion of my account. I only posted summaries of my original articles from another site and maybe another member thought it was another plagiarized post and flagged it.

Hmm... I have posted only one article in bubblews so far. It is a repost of my blog post in my blog (in blogger). From what I read here, I suppose the thing I should do then is to maybe add a note to the bottom of my bubblews article giving a link to my original blog in blogger? Would that be enough then?

Hi. According to content syndication act, you can copy and paste article but you have to mention the original source of the article. If you do it then your article would not be considered as plagiarism. Cheers.

I was also invited to join the site but so far I have not done it yet. Well, I'm glad they were just given a warning first. I hope our countrymen will just do things fairly. I came across with several sites wherein Filipinos were banned because of violating the rules. I hope we learned our lessons already. Let us do it in a proper way this time. Let's be thankful for given a second chance around. Have a nice day!

jcj_111776, May I ask that you give some more details as to what you think you did that made them delete your account? So that we can avoid it as well. From what you say here, it seems to me, you made a summary of an article you wrote elsewhere, but did not provide a link to the original article? If that is the case that made them delete your account... I'd have to say it is somewhat unclear (malabo) and not very fair. Because it seems to me, you are the same author, and your bubblews isn't even an exact copy of your article outside (you said it's a summary). Was your (author) name the same in bubblews and in the outside site different that they can not tell right away that the author is one and the same? In any case, I would still prefer that they give a warning before deleting an account if that one article was the only basis. Perhaps the reason for deletion was something else?

Be careful things like that can also ruin a good up and coming site.

oh hey! look who's here! hiya tootsie! hehehe btw... about bubblews. I posted only one post there so far. (So, I figure I am not spamming yet hahaha.) But it is a repost from my outside blog (with very few edits). Is that not acceptable in bubblews? I did read the terms and such but I don't think I caught anything about reposting specifically. I think I'll go have another look but if you can point me out in the right direction, much appreciated.

Make sure you read all sites terms. I was stated there, no coping from other sites.

Thanks for that reminder, friend. I have three posts there and still want to add some but don't have the idea on what is the best to share. What I notice about our Filipino, friend. They are asking for likes, comments and even asking to visit their own post. This might be not tolerated because of their greed actions on the site. It seems that they want the site to be gone immediately because the site will be suffering more losses due to their actions...

The problem with bubblews is that there is no guideline at all. There is no FAQ or help section unlike other sites that I join, they will give the guideline URL link to our email addresses for a new comer so that everyone would know. That is the reason why almost filipino users are spamming because they do not know what they're doing. They thought there are no rules at all and for them it seem normal. There is a guideline but its difficult to find within that site unless someone gave us the URL link. I, for one, can't find the guideline and so, I thought there is no rule at all. The only thing that I read is term of service in that site. Take a look at myLot, we can easily find the guideline on FAQ. Hmmmm... I guess its a new site so maybe the site is not that clear e

hahaha. I was just saying that I tried looking for rules there but I can't find any. So... you still haven't found any rules? That is a problem, I agree.

I have a question for you... I've been looking for rules to the site but I can't find any. (Maybe I just don't know where to look.) I'm trying to find out if reposting from my outside blog is acceptable or not. I am new there and only have one post so far. But it is a repost from one of my own blogs (in blogger). I have this thought that that should be ok, since I am basically copying from myself and not anyone else (I use the same name in bubblews and blogger). In other words, I gave myself permission. Hehehe. I wonder if this is ok in bubblews? Would you know? I also have an account in another article site (expertscolumn). In that site, it is spelled out in the rules that reposts are fine as long as one submits to them the urls of the other sites or blogs you put your posts in, and the author name is the same. They gave me a link that I placed in my blogs. So, I wonder how it is with bubblews... If you can, can you give me a link to what you are referring to above (where the owner got angry with Filipino users for copying content? That is, if he/she did this in a post.) I would like to read it myself too. =)

Aw! That's too bad! I hope some of our country men who use bubblews will be decent enough to make only their original content.

Good for you for speaking up for what you like to do. Hopefully the spamming will stop and you can continue to participate in something you enjoy. It really sucks when other people mess things up for everyone else.

What you are saying is very noble, however I fear you are wasting your time. There are millions of users online that follow the rules and have excellent conduct...There are also millions of online users that do not, they will cheat to make a quick buck. of course these poor souls do not have the intelligence that we have as the can not see that abiding by site conditions will give them more money in the long run
