Where is it ?

@MartinII What kind of interests and opinions are considered unacceptable?
MartinII · 70-79, M
@SW-User Well, let me give you one example. People of my generation in the UK frequently experienced corporal punishment at school. (It doesn’t happen now, but still does in some US states and in other parts of the world,) Some of us found it helpful to share our experiences, which was what EP, as its name suggests, was about. A friend of mine, a respectable lady and a grandmother, described how she had been caned at her school, 50 years or more ago, at the same time as some younger girls. She later posted a fictional story based on her real life experience. She was accused by the management of paedophilia and given a final warning. Naturally she was deeply hurt and left. I left too, in sympathy, but returned after a while, partly to keep in touch with a few friends and partly to make my opinion of the management known to anyone who will listen!
SW-User
@MartinII As long as she portraying that as a fictional story, it seems strange that the management could take those actions. Given that I'm well versed with my country's constitution and the legal system, we are allowed to make statements as long as it doesn't directly intend to defame an organisation.

I transited right from EP to SW and yes SW now is the closest match for EP. The difference is not in the app but the people. Though SW has all the features of EP, the people of EP were more matured, had quality time to spend on EP, respected one another and so on. Stories on EP connected a lot of people as one had tome to write, and also read stories of others. But here nobody bothers about stories and most just come to show attitude on one another.

But definitely SW is not as bad as during the time of its inception.
MartinII · 70-79, M
@in10RjFox No. EP had a dedicated feed, quite separate from other posts and comments, which contained everything one’s friends had said, and nothing else. There is nothing comparable on SW.

As to the second point, my friends are far less active than they used to be even six months ago. And you can certainly blame SW for that!
in10RjFox · M
@MartinII I get it. But I do remember SW having it but they may have taken it down to prevent trolling. It's now as replies within whiteboard of users, which I agree is quite complex.
MartinII · 70-79, M
@in10RjFox Just to be clear, it was a single feed containing everything all ones friends had said. Here you have to look at each friend’s profile individually. The consolidated feed we had on EP has never been available on SW. I have been complaining about it since day 1 (or perhaps day 30 or so, when I joined). Many people have supported my complaints, but the management have never replied.

Enter with an open mind and heart.

This is nothing like EP.

Keep your expectations low and hold strong to sharing who you are and you will soar.
SW-User
Got it 👍 I noticed the other day that the new table cloths go from top to floor . Imagine the possibilities 🤭@HotMessExpress102
HotMessExpress102 · 41-45, F
@SW-User This is incredible news! You know what that means....?

I’m going to whip that table cloth off and turn it into a superwoman cape 🤩
SW-User
Sounds kinky ,let’s do it 👍. 😂😂@HotMessExpress102

I wish you luck with that, hopefully you will find what you seek here. This site was always intended as a replacement for EP - many on here were originally EP'ers... I wouldn't say it's quite the same as EP however. [i][/i]
SW-User
@Adaydreambeliever Yeah but honestly it's the closest I found to EP and I am really like the old members are here. Hopefully I cross my paths once again with those wonderful honest people.
Rusham · M
SW having an app would go some way to helping in my opinion
@Adaydreambeliever
this sounds so much like sarcasm i can't bring myself to believe it.
SW-User
@GlueGun What you see is a perspective and not necessarily the rightful version truth. But again you are free to form to your opinion

Welcome to the site, and I'm sure you will enjoy your stay, and find some friends! Don't take it too seriously, please... sometimes it's more of an amusement park, and sometimes it's just a madhouse! 🌷
SW-User
@helenS Hey thanks for your kind wishes. Fortunately, I am serious when it's worth the effort and fun loving with immense capability to have brainless conversations lol
SW-User
Oh rats! Thought you were going to say you found another platform besides here.

EP user base was far superior. Best wishes.
SW-User
@SW-User CAnt disagree on that. Atm it's something is better than nothing but will soon explore reddit
SW-User
@SW-User Yes better than nothing.
RubySoo · 56-60, F
In the early days it was bery similar....but not anymore.
Totally different.
SW-User
Welcome aboard. You will have no problem fitting in attall. 😊
MoonlightLullaby · 41-45, F
Welcome. We could definitely use your empathetic aura here.🌷

Just a heads up...
We're going through some major changes atm. There isn't any reason to send friend requests. Unfortunately that feature was stripped and we're all a bit lost in the confusion, so excuse the mess.
SW-User
@MoonlightLullaby I am new here atm so haven't really explored much. For the time being, group interactions gives an opportunity to know more about how is everyone doing
solitaire · 41-45, F
My life for the past 15 years has seen a pattern of one heartbreak after another. It affects me and sucks the life out of me - right now I'm on the verge of a breakdown. How do I break this cycle and move ahead? I'm afraid of being alone and dying alone
SW-User
@solitaire Hey I just saw your message. Contacting you privately
ABCDEF7 · M
Same reason, why I am here too.
JRVanguard · 26-30, M
Welcome to SW
Hope you find what you’re looking for
JRVanguard · 26-30, M
@SW-User I look forward to it too🤗
If you need a guide to some of the features hit me up
I’ve only been here 4+ years😂
SW-User
@JRVanguard Regardless it's always a pleasure to interact with positive people. Let me see if I can message you privately.
JRVanguard · 26-30, M
@SW-User I’d enjoy that😊
adorbz · 26-30, F
welcome! we aren’t as crazy as we look except sometimes when we’re crazier 😌

you might find some of these useful! https://similarworlds.com/groups/new-sw-members/3813508-Useful-links-for-SW-newbies-and-non-newbies
SW-User
@adorbz Oh genuinely, I haven't found anyone that crazy enough. You guyz seem to be jovial making lighter conversations amidst everything.
was a E,P member 6 years,,hear 5 years,,all we now,,🌹
SW-User
@jackrabbit10 Great to meet an EP member :) Feels like a reunion
@SW-User right now your like fresh bait in a small drying up pond,,
SW-User
@jackrabbit10 Hahaha ! I would take this comment and a few others stemming from personal experience of this app. Therefore, point noted.
Myocite · F
Great that you're here 😇 Angel!
SW-User
@Myocite AAh! How is it going for u so far?
Myocite · F
@SW-User Well I'd have to say I've met a wide variety of people just as in the real world.
SW-User
@Myocite well the good thing is many are quite comfortable expressing themselves without revealing their identity
ShadowWorker · 61-69, F

@SW-User Lol nicely expressed metaphorically
SW-User
@canusernamebemyusername Isn't it paid for? I usually like to spend a few days before I pay for anything. I like to know if it's worth the expense
@SW-User This one actually is the closest. But some bad updates have been messing with the site lately so it's def not improving sadly. Yet it's the only website I have found other than the old EP that had a format that was more like a chat room.
Although I do like reddit as well. It is good for finding certain interest groups or hobbies.
SW-User
@canusernamebemyusername Ok worth exploring. That's what even the founder of EP suggested on Quora

@swirlie Interestingly, I have got this heads up from users with several comments below. I hope we find a platform that at least closely does a job as good as EP
SW-User
@swirlie A game of trivial pursuit. Apt description.
