Hello there, I came across this website just now, and it looks almost identical to EP. For the ones who were a member of both, are there any major differences that you noticed? How do you feel about Similar Worlds so far?

EP had more ❤ and more people

SW-User

No Billy, Diana, or Mario.

Still have Chest obsession, ammonia scrubbers, and occasionally Nut Kick girl/Garbage Bag man/Martial Arts Girl.

Otherwise it is a better-moderated version of EP.

Personally, I think this site is much better. I may not be as big as EP but it has a lot more than EP and this site's still growing.

same thing,except it gets worse every year so maybe ep 😁

It's the closest thing to EP that I know of.

@Jonjdw I'm glad. I was really bummed when EP closed, and all of the suggested alternatives site were mediocre.

At it's height, EP was much better than SW. It was easier to get around and the groups seemed to be more interesting.

SW is the best alternative I've found so far, but it has gotten overrun by so many trolls and pervs that some days it's almost not worth being here.

@AlienZipper So basically just like EP, ha.

@dyingroots Pretty much, lol...

About the only major difference is the lack of a whiteboard.

EP closed down due an incident that was likely to become a legal problem for them had they not just shutdown.

@dyingroots THERE WAS NO MURDER. even if there was that would be no reason to close.

@NCCindy Ep closed down as they had their licence to operate a social media site revoked by MS. EP staff has not been adhering to their own TOS or their own Community guidelines. Complaints we re made by users--some to the FCC. They were forwarded to MS. MS had enough and issued a 60 day cease notice. and they had 60 days to close down. Kanjoya, their parent company , the one that owned them. then tried to save face. It was convenient that the murder happened when it did as it gave them an excuse- that was never admitted- to close the place. That is why EP can never exist again- and why , on the legal page of this place- and the front page, it state they are not related to EP. Kanjoya, the parent company also ceases to exist as a company now- as it was acquired by a larger corporation.

As for me- give me the choice and I prefer EP -no contest. Ep could have an intimacy and a closeness to it -and there was a ton more to do at EP. This place lack all of those.

@dyingroots There was a great posting on EP just before it shut down. It was the truth about why EP shut down. I wish I had saved it. It was the truth.

I think ep had more story’s of something that you were interested in . But I think this site is easier to use and a little more strict on things that are uncomfortable to most of us . I think that’s a good thing . 🙂

Pretty much the same...one thing I miss is the ability to tell what groups people joined after viewing your profile. That was always a good conversation starter.
