So . . . Does anybody know the real story?
What is the gossip behind the fall and rise of EP/SW?

Idk about the real story.. But here's my personal view.. As an outsider and just a habitual user..
EP was made to be a Social help site for a specific cause.. But it morphed into a crazed social site for random people and goofballs and horrid perverts and annoying AF trolls..
They (the site owner(s))couldn't control it so they baled. Basicly they didn't care about the actual users wants and needs they just did what they wanted as did the users so it got ugly and they closed.
I heard there were legal issues like lawsuits and such and also bad publicity about kids being kidnaped and also some site user being killed or something or other.. I didn't pursue said stories in detail.. But basicly they were getting a bad rep in the media for being an unsafe social site ..
Among other things.. They just saved themselves and abandoned the site..
*sigh*
I think this site is much better.. They know their users and they listen and they do what they can to keep said users safe and secure from each other..
I'm thankful and greatfull to the makers of this site for saving us from a social site withdrawal we would have had otherwise (as EP addicts)
Anyway that's my limited view of the matters.. From what little I saw and heard.
Idk maybe they were just frustrated.. (The EP management) I guess they have a right to be fed up too.. They basicly just suspended the site..
I don't really blame them I guess..
But I think this place is nice now..
