Or am I just an idiot for playing there..
To be perfectly honest, I started out as a complete fish, my only prior experience being 10-20$ max buy-in home games (and watching rounders like 3 times), but after about 8 months of online play I think I've honed my skills quite nicely.. Past 15 SnG's (I maybe played a total of 30 ever) I've placed first 6 times, 2nd 4 times, and 3rd twice. I also just had my first final table MTT finish, placing 3rd out of a field of over 450.
Anyhow, I'm considering cashing out and moving on to a better online poker joint. Party/Empire has the most action apparently. Where do most of you guys play?
Should I just stick to Paradise since I know I can beat the low levels over there?
Any help/comments appreciated.

If you've found a winning formula, tap it for as much money as you can. As long as it's making you money, there's no sense in changing strategies.

Because many of the players at Party/Empire really have no idea what they are doing, they may actually be harder for you to beat. You can't really play poker against them, all you can do is number crunch against them. I personally find that although I make a profit at Party/Empire, I make significantly more of a profit at the other poker sites I play at (for example, at InterPoker, at the same limits, I make over twice as much per 100 hands). Then again, I hear that some people can turn out very big profits playing against the Party/Empire fish, so I guess it just depends on your skill set.
So, my suggestion is to wait out on trying Party/Empire until you can take full advantage of their initial deposit bonus (that is, wait until you have $500 to deposit and get a $100 bonus). Then play there long enough to clear the bonus. That ought to be enough hands to give you some idea as to whether you think you will be making more money at Party/Empire or more money at Paradise.
I personally like InterPoker the most, as I think the ring games there are easiest to beat, and I am primarily a ring game player. Also, they offer a sweet bonus where they will match your deposit up to $90 every month.
