Why are you so much more interesting on myLot than you were on Bubblews?

I think that Bubblews just wasn't set up for social interaction the way that MyLot is. Here, we often seem to learn more about people from the responses, comments and asides they make rather than from the discussions they post. Although responses (called 'replies') certainly had a place in Bubblews, it never lent itself, somehow, to 'conversation' in the way that MyLot does. Perhaps it's partly because you had to type a minimum number of characters for a reply there (and there was an upper limit too, which became frustrating when you wanted to say something substantial) whereas here you can type as much or as little as you like. It simply would not have been possible to leave a totally hilarious '' there, but here it's quite acceptable (in context, of course). Somehow, Bubblews was never a place where it was easy to have a discussion and it was much more difficult to have fun.

I too have gotten to know a few ex bubblers better here at Mylot.

Many Bubblews members, myself included, restricted their list of connections to a manageable size in order to maintain a realistic track of their material. Moving to another site constituted started anew, so it was a simple matter of looking for those who submitted discussions that we could interact with. The level of interest that I generate has not changed one iota, I was a boring old fool at Bubblews and am still a boring old fool on Mylot.

It is more relaxed here, more easy going.

I think it's the discussion format that enables us to get to know each other better.

I think its the conversations and discussions. there was very little back and forth on that other site. It was comment and run.. Having more fun here than ever on Bubs.

maybe they finally burst their bubbles and you saw the real them.. I never was there and i enjoy all of our conversations here..

I think the fact that we really need to work to draw attention in makes the posts here much more interesting

maybe because there was a comment box and not a respond box, some people think if they leave a comment, Thats it, and we were told on Bubs that we were not allowed to make idle chatter, so it might have put people off.

A cut diamond is also multifaceted, and fascinating in its own way - maybe we're all just chips off the old block?

I like being able to jump into a discussion better than the "other" place. This is a much better way of getting to know people rather than just concentrating on how many posts you can get up in a day.

Could it be that there's more actual dialogue here?

I don't think I've become any more interesting - I may have gone backwards. There's a level of passion and thought which goes into many myLot comments that just wasn't there at Bubbs. It can't help but open up new relationships, and new dimensions in the people we thought we already knew.

Maybe you have less connections here?

Bubblews was different than myLot For one thing, there was a character count. The articles and subjects were more varied. However, the management was poor and it was unreliable. In the end, Bubblews cooked its own goose and closed.

for some reason people were all so much more aloof on bubblews and Ii h ve had responses from people who I knew on bubblews who never touched my posts at all. Here there is more warmth as if people are not afraid to talk to you and you feel more l ike responding too as you feel welcome here.

Well in any case I hope that you continue to find interesting people on here and find more of your Bubblews friends.

I think that the atmosphere on this site is more laid back and relaxed and it allows for better thoughts to flow for discussions.

For me, it seems more relaxed here. There's no minimum number of characters to a post or reply. That makes for a more natural way to converse.

Maybe one the other site...therr are more people? Here..i have reconnected with the same people. Hehe
