I miss experience project

I miss the community we had, the willingness to help with any problem, now we are all mindless zombies who are looking for the cheap laugh.

Not that used EP but I don't think what you said is fair. This is the most caring site I've ever been on.

PatKirby · M

EP encouraged the long form of personal expression. I very much enjoyed and grew into that mode. However this site promotes the abbreviated form which lends itself to puns and jabs so that's what you see here. You just try EP's long form style and you'll receive next to no responses or at best 'tldr' replies.

I must admit that although yes I tend to go with those prevailing short form winds, I prefer the former style from time to time as it is my natural style. More to create and share. Oh well I guess you can't have everything.

@PatKirby I agree with your description. But do you think it’s SW’s fault, or is it just that the people have changed or are different, and not many are willing to write, or read, long posts?

PatKirby · M

@MartinII

It's not you, people don't seem o want to take the time to become absorbed in an idea for more than a few seconds. Attention spans have dropped over time. SW is just responding to that.

I prefer here than EP. Sure I miss the Old days when it first started but after creating an App. It went down hill and the environment from these App Users on EP or whatever they came from through the App is Fvcking Horrible.

I was afraid this will be the same result for here but I was mistaken. Through these new users it's not that bad I thought it would be. Sure you can see all these Butt Hurting Cat Fishes for Attention but nobody including myself don't even bother anymore.

We've been through a lot of BS from EP in the late years before it shuts down.

Lesson is learned.

@FreestyleArt

Same here. But after an adjustment I've come to enjoy it here for what it is. After the EP shutdown debacle people were left with this distinct empty and lonesome sense that lingered forever. After a while that became stale and I refused to wallow in that, so I found this fun place. Different but like I said I learned to roll with the changes.

i find this place SW just as good except no chat bar and most of us from EP are here too

I’m right there on the same page with you

SW-User

Personally I think its me that changed.

Back then in EP I wanted to have friends, even if they drop the conversation in the middle.

I have spoken to hundreds in EP.
Two of my BFFS are from EP. I had several of my EP Friends on my Skype / Facebook.

Right now, I have changed I stopped talking to people because I get depressed of getting ghosted.

In this mindset, even EP couldn't have helped me.

@SW-User don't stop being you. If people ghost you they never knew your worth from the beginning.

SW-User

@Jackson711247 Thanks.

Jackson711247 · 36-40, M

@SW-User You are welcome.

that's just how people in 2023, if EP exist right now it will also full of mindless zombies who are looking for cheap laugh

Jackson711247 · 36-40, M

I miss EP as well. But things change. And seeing that a lot of people on here was also on EP it shouldn't be that much different. From what i see on EP people were willing to open up more than here but it could just be my imagination. I think alot more people troll now than before on the internet. I do miss this live chat page that used to be called Chat Machine lol. Oh how the internet has changed/evolved.

EP was a great place until the last year or so. This place began where EP ended. In the sewer.

and when that algorithm rolled in, we're zombies in a house of mirrors.

AnExcellentJestt · 36-40, M

Hey...I resemble that remark! Really though...ep was so much better

PatKirby · M

@AnExcellentJestt
Orders of magnitude better.

Matt85 · 36-40, M

@canusernamebemyusername I miss Yahoo Chat.

canusernamebemyusername · M

@Matt85 @FurryFace My most missed is myspace. So many good memories of gifs and glittery backgrounds and emo culture.

Wallflow3r · 26-30, F

I feel personally attacked

TxOutlawTyler · M

Me too

familyfunguy · 56-60, M

I'd probably miss it too if I'd have used it. Maybe sue to try and bring it back? But wait, it wouldn't be the same, only the name. Too many people grew up, died, or moved on.
