What is the worst part about EP?

I think the main purpose of EP has become the reason for it's Worst part.

People here join to share their life experiences without disclosing their real life identity, and when we make friends on the basis of Truth of our/their life, we will NEVER be able to connect with them in Real Life.

Because a link(a friend connecting both worlds) can break your privacy & spoil your life.

Like most interactive media, it promotes group think! If a thought or concern is shared by many, it gets reinforced by people who just emotionally connect with it, some how validating that concern. This all seems well and good, but remember group think has done a lot of evil in this world as well.

Commonly people get on with the flock, rather then what is correct, accurate or moral! and this can often lead to as much bad as good.

What sort of evils you think are surfacing on EP.

i think i get what your saying but isnt that true for life as well. ln school for example. all kinds of kids follow the flock and group think is always prevalent.

Not that there is evil surfacing or even occurring. Well other then the disengagement of individual thought, reasonable reaction and applied logic. As I said group think can have it's bad outcome. Let's just be a little conscious of that before we start throwing those that disagree to the lions.

It happens every where! and unfortunately in most cases, it's considered normal and good. As we are surprised when something bad happens because of it.

Some seem to enjoy bullying others, causing grief....Not to me. But there are those who lie and manipulate, and when exposed, continue to wreak havoc on the members here. They are despicable people! I am not violen t but would like to punch the s hit out of them. And they know who they are!
