Bubblews update - Just who is running the ship?

Just popped my head in over at Bubblews - and for those that may be interested in a little gossip, I stumbled across a couple of comments left by @nameless (Elaine).
"Oh, just a heads up, Kevin is no longer with Bubblews although he is still with Arvind and Jason's team"
A bubblews member asked Elaine who was still working at Bubblews. . .
"To my knowledge you're looking her (Nameless) and Bear is around. Jason and Arvind are in and out, they just don't interact much."
So Kevin has left Bubblews but is still in Arvind and Jasons team - No idea what team that is or what projects that they are working on. . .
Bear is still there - not sure what his role is.
Nameless is trying her best.
Arvind and Jason - are in and out!
So it seems that Nameless is the only credible person there.

I saw those comments, nameless made them a while ago. Arvind, Jason, Kevin, Tyler and Mike are all working on Sweeble. Only Bear is involved with Bubblews and only as regards payments. Since they aren't making payments, he doesn't have a lot to do. Nameless is not active on the site right now, either. She is "on strike". No one is running the ship, nothing is happening, nothing is going to happen. They are just milking it out, and when the revenue no longer covers the cost of having the site up, it will go down.

Yes, it seems that is the beaten path.

@AdrienneJenkins They have defines Sweeble the first social media app. Search "Sweeble Party" and look at the photos, you can see where the unpaid redemption of Bubblers went.

@LadyDuck It's amazing they got venture capital or finding for this bizarre copy. All I see happening is them running through the cash they blazed through at Bubblews. It's too bad. All that potential talent and promise.

It's funny how they all moved to a failing product, whereas they might have been able to save bubblews if they just put some effort into it.

@ThankyouLord Well they didn't listen to me last year when I said they needed to pull people in from outside to have a strong sense of traffic inside and out. They tried to create a perpetual income machine, and didn't factor in the fact that they still needed neutral outside viewers to make up the difference.

I am just worried what will happen to my bank money of 34.35 dollars in Bubblews. Before I could reach the redeemable amount, the site may disappear like CGP . . . A cent per post would take me eternity to reach $50 . .

Sounds like the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing.

I'm gradually deleting my posts there, but it's time consuming. So sad.

Well Bear used to be the company spy...in case people were writing anything detrimental on other sites like FB etc....must have had his work cut out to police all the likely culprits... I thought the Captain was mean't to be the last to leave a sinking ship...but no loyalty amongst thieves, I guess!

If they have loss interest I wonder why they do not shut the site down,.

It is worth selling, and that is what they should do.

So did these people all start Bubblews or what? They were a full team before, but now they're separating? I always thought Arvind was the "mastermind" behind Bubblews. To hear that he's "in and out" really shows that Bubblews is just going to sink from here on out.

A ghost ship, in other words, huh? Well, it seems the blush is off the rose, for sure. But I am spending so much time over here now, I am not sure it matters much to me, at least. I think that there are still a lot of people over there who might want to come here, if they knew about it. Some are here, but are unrecognizable. We will all carry on. That's what we do, is it not?

I think they are concentrating on their new Sweeble app
