There are Bubblews friends here I was almost completely out of touch with after Bubblews closed. I'm so glad to be communicating with them again here. Sometimes you don't realize how much you've missed someone until you see them again. Now it seems most of my Bubblews and Persona Paper friends are making their way here, and, of course, all the original myLotters who have returned. I hope the site stays strong and we can all continue to meet in one place here no matter what other sites we may belong to.

When I first joined MyLot I was delighted to find so many ex-Bubblers already here.

Remember, many of us on the old myLot migrated to Bubblews when myLot stopped paying and Bubblews started its site. Now that is working in reverse, except that many who were never at myLot before also joined Bubblews. It was then very easy of for the ex myLotters to spread the word to their new Bubblews friends that myLot was the place to go.

@bagarad I saw this site being discussed a lot when Bubblews was crashing, so joined the migration. It wasn't any particular person who told me about it, but I'm very happy to be here.

I was pretty excited to see so many old friends here when I first joined. I"m still discovering them from time to time.

I'm still seeing more every day. I was really happy to find you here, since you never came over to Persona Paper as another group of us did.

@JudyEv - At the end of Bubblews, I told as many people about MyLot as I possibly could. I am so glad that I did!

@bagarad I went to some other group but for the life of me I can't remember the name of it. I didn't get a payout from them and it didn't last long. I have @DeborahDiane to thank for pointing me to MyLot.

It is rather like Old Home Day isn't it. I am seeing some friends from Associated Content and Helium too.

@YesWay Helium went down in April 2014 and Yahoo Voices in July 2014.

Did Helium go down too then? I never joined that one, but I had heard of it. There seemed like there were loads out there at one point and it was just impossible to join all of them.

I didn't plan on joining mylot at the time I did because I was still hoping bubblews would get it together. I came here because Janet was planning a little trip and was going to share about it here but not on bubblews. I came here to read and ended up joining. I also found Anna here already. I think she was one of the first that joined up to my knowledge. I'd wondered where she'd gone to and was concerned she had to leave because of her husband's illness, but found she was here all along.

It is. We still have relationships we made there to build on here. It's like coming to a party and finding friends there you haven't seen in a long time. You get to catch up and just talk instead of having to worry about how long your discussion is or how many characters are in your responses.

I just found this site today. I am excited about it, and looking forward to reconnecting with my old friends from Bubblews.

It's getting to be a grand reunion for reconnecting with people from many closed and closing sites.

@bagarad That's a sad commentary; but, one thing about the internet is that it is constantly changing.

@bagarad Plus, the people who run the sites seem to make poor decisions. Or the site is sold to people who want to run it differently.
