Meh, it had its moments, I guess, but it was not the object of perfection that people make it out to be in retrospect. Some people had good experiences, and then there was the dark side. Because it was largely unregulated, aside fro EP Allie, that ranged from codependent, at best, to true malevolence at the worst. I had absolute nutters want to talk and then they’d turn and insult me for the topic that they wanted to talk about, or they’d send unsolicited messages of an adult nature that were of zero interest. Just bizarre things went on in the middle of the night and early morning. So, not a great loss to me.

@toddr13 Interesting recollections. Lack of regulation was one of the things I liked about EP compared to SW. I know that that risks consequences of the kind you describe. But regulation on SW has forced out a number of good people including friends of mine. As well as being personally regrettable, that has tended in my opinion to reduce the quality and interest of members’ contributions.
