Originally, EP was setup as a social media site for people with shared experiences to support each other. From the Wiki page on EP:
[quote][i][b]"The nodes of the network were "life experiences", such as starting a new job, battling depression or surviving a divorce. Members who had listed experiences in common were automatically connected. Reversing the "f.r.i.e.n.d.s." concept of traditional social networks, in which connections are made between known individuals who then may or may not share experiences, on the Experience Project, connections were made based on shared experiences. The site emphasized anonymity to promote more authentic conversations that would otherwise be quelled by fear of recognition or embarrassment."[/b][/i][/quote]

It was here before here. Original here. Bigger, better here.

Slightly more perv infested.

This site is not a support site, it's essentially a social network, at least EP was mostly people who were there to comfort each other, This one is rude by comparison and yes there were trolls on EP but christ....

it was easier to ignore them too...

EP a cesspool of perversion. So much fun

It was basically this site... but there was an app.

Groups were used more too. People could hide in groups and their posts wouldn't hit the main thread.

It was like a fairytale full of professional trolls and tigers and bears oh My!!!! There was so much Drama. Kittychannel even spiked up the drama it was awesome. Then you have kikzkiz or some religious troll. I think she's doing better now but damn. She was feisty. And then there was Gem going off on the Confession section. That was something else

As a platform SW is way better, in terms of users, EP was way better. To me at least, cuz I miss lots of people who never moved to SW.

<3 so EP or Experience Project was a site rather like this one that had similar experience groups but seemingly a stronger community feel you could post in topics and feel supported more than you might be here. some people hold a lot of nostalgia for it. Although this site did its best to clone what EP was I think for some it is not the same. EP struggled with data provision requirements and the desire to keep users personal data safe. regulations in the end forced the Experience Project to close down

Similar to this but I formed more real friendships. There were trolls on EP but not as many. I think theres also more people on SW with multiple accounts. I dont know if its just me but EP was the first site of its kind that I knew. I still like SW. But when EP closed some people never joined this site.

I liked EP... a lot more...it seemed less prohibitive. I wrote some stories for friends. We exchanged emails but... you know how that goes. You were able to archive everything in the end. I can't remember whether I did, though, EP was a very similar site. The guy that originated it, became a millionaire. He suddenly pulled the plug with about a month's notice. Goggle or search... "the experience project"> Hope that this helps you.😊

Nicer. More pervs but also more decent people, and easier to tell the difference.

The mother of SW ...

for me, big difference was ep had many more people writing longer pieces, stories, sandals reading... but you know that is important interest for me

Instead of sounding redundant, I'll add something else... It was sw but with more people............... Both good and bad........ And an anonymous board area where you could post stuff you didn't want people to know...... God, I miss that... I LOVED trolling the fugg out of it... Still, was nice to get some things off your chest.. Moving on... ┬┴┬┴┤¬ᴥ¬ʔ

It was original similarworlds, had a friend who was a couple years older from canada, live in scotland transition, her name is or was chantelle, she died in early-2015. Only ts woman who gave me great advice about friends, transitioning and essence of womanhood. Never saw her but, i deeply missed her in real society, genuinely sad.


Was some engineer in sandhurst military barracks in uk military

It was the forerunner of SW . It was something completely different back in 2008

ep was.. sw with less absurd posts and apparently more pervs

Something like SW but larger with a very wide variety of people. I enjoyed it for several years, made some good friends there, a few of which I still have. Some EP people came here when it closed but not all.

It was a place sprinkled with fairy dust and carpeted with land mines and I still miss it and some of the friends who didn't embrace SW as much

Its over... Move along...

plus on EP you could hide in groups so only people who were interested in what you were writing about tended to find your content instead of notifying the whole fucking site.

I missed out, I guess. Even though I made an EP account back in 2015 I didn't really use it. I didn't like the format, especially compared to Spring.me

Similar Worlds might be even better than Experience Project, except Experience Project had more members. I do wish that Experience Project had been kept online.

Pretty much the same as SW. less about questions and more about sharing experiences.

It was called the Experience Project.

Similar to SW however the original was better in terms of really connecting with people.

It was a forerunner of this site, it closed about 3 or 4 years ago.

EP was a crazy place. I met some really good people there though

The previous version of SW, almost.

Experience Project (EP) was the site that predated this one; it was around from 2006 or 2007 until it closed in 2016. SW was established by some former EP members. Many people wax nostalgic about the days of EP.

The best experience ever!
