@MrGomco me too

@MartinII What kind of interests and opinions are considered unacceptable?

@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!

@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.

@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!

@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.

@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.

Got it 👍 I noticed the other day that the new table cloths go from top to floor . Imagine the possibilities 🤭@HotMessExpress102

@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 🤩

Sounds kinky ,let’s do it 👍. 😂😂@HotMessExpress102

@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.

SW having an app would go some way to helping in my opinion
@Adaydreambeliever

@GlueGun What you see is a perspective and not necessarily the rightful version truth. But again you are free to form to your opinion

@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

@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

@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😂

@JRVanguard Regardless it's always a pleasure to interact with positive people. Let me see if I can message you privately.

@SW-User I’d enjoy that😊

@Myocite AAh! How is it going for u so far?

@SW-User Well I'd have to say I've met a wide variety of people just as in the real world.

@Myocite well the good thing is many are quite comfortable expressing themselves without revealing their identity

@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,,

@jackrabbit10 Hahaha ! I would take this comment and a few others stemming from personal experience of this app. Therefore, point noted.

@SW-User CAnt disagree on that. Atm it's something is better than nothing but will soon explore reddit

@SW-User Yes better than nothing.

@quietwhispers101 Good observation in a brief period

@quietwhispers101 I have replied to your private message

@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.

@canusernamebemyusername Ok worth exploring. That's what even the founder of EP suggested on Quora

@SW-User Lol nicely expressed metaphorically

@solitaire Hey I just saw your message. Contacting you privately

@Carlisle Thank you dear

@adorbz Oh genuinely, I haven't found anyone that crazy enough. You guyz seem to be jovial making lighter conversations amidst everything.

@ShadowWorker Who doesn't

@SW-User very true.

@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

@swirlie A game of trivial pursuit. Apt description.
