When I realised that EP was coming to an end l became an “archivist”.
And started to copy and download everything, because I knew there was never going to be something similar ever again 😁
There was a Golden Age and I probably arrived at the end, but EP staggered on for another five or six years.
What l never understood was the number of members who had massive numbers of contributions, posts and friends and had had an incredibly dense existence…who had then walked away from the whole thing.
Didn’t delete or announce anything.
Just never returned.
Like the Olmec walking away from their civilisation and returning to the jungle 😳
One member l was just becoming obsessed with announcing she had just changed her password to something random and was going to enter it and then log out so that she could never return.
I sometimes look at the stuff I have kept.
I was another person in a different world 🌎
