The site layout was much better, especially our home page where we opened up to our private whiteboard by default, could immediately see responses from our friends on a separate column and could post our daily moods, customize our page layout with different dialogue blocks and even change the colors of the page.
Home pages really helped make it a personal experience

I dont know bout colors or mood changes but you can see if you get mail or whiteboard stuff when you sign on @Onestarlitnight
@matthewjames
Sure but EP was different.
My home page showed me everything at once, my whiteboard showed the good morning messages from my friends, comments on my moods random messages about new stories.
It was My special page. Others could only see the parts that were open to them, we had friends only stories and posts, comments from friends were displayed on a sidebar so they were always visible immediately

The layout, the groups, the sections, the amount of people, the feed and like i can go on and on they ruined this place and EP allie laughs at us

@TryingtoLava god damn you now im crying.. i miss EP! I lost a lot of good friends.....

@TryingtoLava but at least i have you lava... that is.. if you're willing to have me (not in that way)

Groups, layout, a bit more freedom than here, an actual APP on google play and the app store, more people, better communication, felt more like a family than here, not everything was run by an algorithm that makes you think you're looking at stuff you want to see when you're clearly not, EPAllie was amazing, the coins actually had a purpose outside of giving gifts and hoarding, VIP actually made sense, no Block limiter, no chat message limiterposts were actually very interesting and not a lot of catfish like here. At least not until the end of EP
@Mistakesmakeus All so very true.

I had been on it for 2 years and had no idea of blocking. It simply wasn't needed. Generally, SW is the first social media site ever when I actually learned about blocking other users as a common thing to do. On EP, I was in my bubble interacting only with people who had something relevant to say on the topic and no random outsider budged in.
Magenta · F
@CrazyMusicLover Indeed. I don't remember much of anything about blocking. On here it seems like a fixation.
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
@Magenta Yeah, I've never been to a site like SW before. It's much more about a community where your history and identity matters. Before it was more about anonymity, experiences and opinions. Now it's about who is expressing the opinion or tells a story.

For me personally, it was a port in a storm.
Somewhere to dump all the life-garbage that had started to drown me.
It wasn't 'live' like SimilarWorlds is.
People would comment and leave messages and photos and information etc. It was good.
SimilarWorlds is similar but different.......better in some ways.
There were some good folks i remember well.

It changed over time. In the last year or so of EP it was very much like SW is now.
Before that, they were way if you were trolls. There was almost no political debate. And frankly people had more intimate fun. Yes they were catfish, but there are more here now. Yes you could have sexy chat like here but it was a higher quality to be honest. When might say the people there were more sophisticated and it’s first few years. Conflicts did not last long or they went private.

@SatyrService Yes, it fell apart in the last year, but it still created lasting connections. The veterans of EP here among us like me can attest to that. It was sophisticated, fun, cool, and time spent there was rewarding.

I think way back before EP got flooded the crowd was just a lot nicer to each other. The community was smaller and friendlier. Then apparently they were on television and got flooded with perverts and towards the end in my opinion it became worse than here, only because on here we have better filters.
matthewjames · 18-21, M
really? it seems pretty bad here you say its better then experience project? @PhilDeep
PhilDeep · 51-55, M
@matthewjames I'm saying the filters offer more protection from the kind of degeneration that happened at the end of EP although EP was a lot better and didn't need nonsense filtering to start with, as I recall. SW has had that **** from the start.

This site had their own terrible vision and they stuck with it.

You'd have to been there too see. Similar worlds is a spin off from experience project. I think over the years similar worlds has made it better. Just for me, one or two of my friends passed over to this site. And I miss the ones who didn’t.
The people there were different.

I miss EP. 💝
Foodie60 · 36-40, M
@Bittersweet84 me too
GlitterEater · 36-40, F
That's what they did here at first. Then they started implementing their own ideas and forcing the worst feed algorithm in the history of computing on us.
I thinks it’s because EP had more activity and all the weird trolls that came to SW from EP seem to have left as well.

It wasn't.

@Magenta Hi, M! So nice to see you here! Happy Sunday! It is my only night off in a week. I am so craving my bed, but staying up until midnight if I can. Gotta pack some living into this one night! *Sprinkles star dust for you to take home and sew with golden threads into a winter quilt*

@PoetryNEmotion Hi Poe! Oh you made my heart sing. ☺️
I so hope you had a delightful joyous night off.
Beautiful. I saved every single sparkle. 💓

@Magenta You have one of the most beautiful hearts! I wish it were more than one! Two to work. Then two off. Just have to get through them.
You are so loving. Thank you, M, always. ❤️
