Why do people on here ALWAYS say they miss EP when this site is EXACTLY the same?

It looks like a complete copy of EP just with a different name and does not have phone apps. Other than a few people who did not jump over to SW its mostly made up of former EP users. Very few people here were not from EP.

It's the same on the surface, but the energy has changed. People have changed. The way of interaction seems different.
There was a time EP was really a fun place to be at.

@SW-User Agreed. I also miss confessions. And the layout was more interesting/fun/condusive to community interaction.

@ghostofapu I feel like the essence of EP was never replicated even though the whole concept was. There was a certain kind of warmth and joy in that place, inspite of all the other issues.
And I get it that it is possibly something not everyone shares. Especially depends on how your EP experience was. But that is what people are missing when they see they miss EP.
Metaphorically, lets say a child had a home with a dysfunctional family but he still had fondness for it and then something happens to his family and he has to go to a foster home. Technically he is getting everything he would with his family, and yet something has fundamentally changed for him.
