Why are they all leaving SW?

I haven't been on here for long but just went through my friends and EIGHT have now left SW!!! Why??

helenS · 36-40, F

People come and people go. We have plenty of new members; I think (or should I say I hope?) the user base is growing rapidly.

@helenS The members with NEW next to their ages are bots

helenS · 36-40, F

@TjNewton I've talked to some, and if they were bots they were programmed really nicely I have to say.

HootyTheNightOwl

@helenS Yeah... I didn't know that we were that far up the totem pole as far as bots go, either.

They even PM me to let me know that they think I am rude...

Only the strong survive.

Too many idiots here, too many "new" members (😆😆😆). Sexism, racism, I could go on .....

@Fluffybull Yes, I recently blocked a poster who keeps quoting Andrew Tate. Maybe it is his right via "free speech" but I’m not required to remain part of the audience.

You think I should be okay with someone who supports a rape apologist ?

I think the question is why were you going through your friends list

@bijouxbroussard @Fluffybull don't make excuses for people looking through their own friends list. It's a taboo behavior so stop defending it

Lol

bijouxbroussard · F

@deadgerbil Lol, you know it isn’t. We check periodically to see if friends are still here, especially if they’ve not posted in awhile. 😅

Gangstress · 41-45, F

Was thinking that myself lol@Fluffybull

PrincessRoarBuddy · F

How do u know they left?
Maybe they blocked you or are having a break from this site.

But yeah some could leave on their own as maybe they are busy with life and or not wanting to come on anymore

filters,which separate,silly title length issues,many want a separate blog /story space out of the main feed....evidently we were supposed to become iOrbit

people try on new things, put on new faces and laugh and have some wine, but sometimes would go back to old familiar places. Wait is that a song?😅

we get a sudden influx every year for the holidays and then they go back to middle school (or high school or college)

SW-User

Left a year and a half ago. I came back with this new identity. Surprised to see that so many users I recognised were still here. In fact I couldn’t think off the top of my head who had gone, until the other day when someone posted what happened to these users and named them, then I thought oh yeah I remember them.

Barebart · M

Wow this post got a lot of comments. Its not that big a deal - I was just asking lol

Mamapolo2016 · F

@Barebart Welp, looks like you opened one.

JohnOinger · 41-45, M

Maybe their too busy in real life they have to take a break they do comeback

Barebart · M

@JohnOinger yeah or the younger ones parents found out they chatted in here haha

BackyardShaman · 61-69, M

This is a train, they found a station and got off.

Pretzel · 61-69, M

@BackyardShaman or got arrested and the prison doesn't have decent internet.

You haven’t heard of after eight mince?

SW-User

This place has and always will be a revolving door

ArishMell · 70-79, M

People leave, others join, in the natural course of things.

I don't know if the overall "membership" is growing but if it is, the number leaving will rise too, at a slightly lower than joining rate.

You simply notice your friends more than others, so I wouldn't read anything significant into it.

Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F

They found the exit

ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M

@Justmeraeagain Or they saw the "EGRESS THIS WAY" sign and went to see the big, strange bird?

SarithBorn · 18-21, M

it just happens. 😇

Torsten · 36-40, M

either blocked you or they left those accounts to make new ones and start fresh with a new identity

Barebart · M

@Torsten I did have one who said his acc got cancelled by SW, so set up a new one.

Torsten · 36-40, M

@Barebart people seem to do it often here and you can always tell. Like how new users just randomly pop up and they know expertly everything about this site and all that. Its a dead give away really
