Who else thinks ep was better?

It was way busier, with many people of many interests. Here, like 100 people are on it. On ep, there were thousands

Hardly.

With a couple thousand people, the probability you will find someone interesting to chat with, who shares your interests is drastically reduced when it's only 80 people online
It is even more noticeable when you have an unusual problem, on ep there would be many others with the same problem and you could connect which is really what ep was about. All the complaints come from people using the q&a for a social site which was not at all what ep was about. If you stayed in the groups addressing your issue you never even notices the so called trolls and such.
Quantity didn´t mean quality on EP, sadly.

I was there for many years. The early years were great, but it went downhill from there.

At the end it was run by trolls , rude teens and owners of fake profiles.

I agree. 90% of the posts here are by the same 20 people. It's not big enough to divide into groups and talk about common interests. It will die if it doesn't get many many more users

SW is still a new site. I think it´s growing more and more by every day. :-)

I liked EP a lot. I didn't like all the fakes but I met a lot of really good people there. Now I'm meeting some really good people on SW. I like it here just give it time to grow
I rather have 80 active members from different paths of life that positively contribute to the site than 100 profiles created by the same person as was the case on EP.

Maybe because EP was around for years and had time for people to discover it. This hasn't been around for very long.

Amazing how people don't use basic logic and consider this
I think ep was better, SW has done a much better job of execution of the technical aspects and is a better platform as a social media but as a help site it is not even close. Being a help site was the main focus at EP and all you have to do is look at the depth of conversation in areas devoted to help with serious issues especially health issues. So the answer to the question is really dependent on why you are here. For most people they will think SW is better.

Yes, because EP has existed much longer than SW. SW is still a new site, and I think it´s growing day by day.
But the really difference between EP and SW is, that on EP there seemed no really possiblity to speak with a MOD or with the ADMINS when there were problems - on SW you can do that!

There were certainly more people on EP, which does up the number of posts, comments and those with shared interests. I mostly use my phone and go crazy with all the scrolling here. So I miss the functionality of EP... But hope this gets better!

Hell yeh EP was much better n easier to use n easy to contact friends directly,here it's very hard to find the relevant people,
[c=#BF0080]I actually think the opposite.. I think SW is way better. I was normally bored on ep.. here I hardly ever am.[/c][/c]

@MrMagic

Basic logic has nothing to do with this being less busy than ep was.
It's fine if some of us miss the pace of ep.
And it's fine that this will take a while to get going.
Both can co-exist

It has everything to do with it. Population will increase with time
It was many years ago.

It became a cesspool in later years.

And SW will follow the same fate if they don't handle the pervs and trolls efficiently.

I was on EP for 6 years and it was actually best (imo) when I first joined, it seemed like it was eventually overrun by trolls. Hopefully this site will add more options but not become plagued by people just coming to spam or troll.
