Who else here remembers Experience Project?

10 years ago I found experience project and it actually changed my life. I think they said they shut it down because it just became too much to manage for the owner.. crazy that similar worlds came out of that (like way after they shut down EP)... I’m so glad that SW is here now but am just reminiscing how it all started with EP.. I don’t think I have any of my original friends. I did have the same screen now here on SW as I did EP,. Anyway.. fun times and potato salad right? Share with me how SW has changed your life!

I was in an abusive relationship and ep was my secret social life at the time. I met someone who cared about me and it gave me the strength to leave and start over.

@KuroNeko That's good to hear about.

@KuroNeko Ditto!

I discovered that I was slowly being disected!

It was talking with others, and getting close to someone, that gave me the perspective and strength to move forward!

Made me remember that I was worthy, made me see the stamina, determination that I did have.
And interestingly enough - made me see how scared and intimidated my then partner was, of any other human influence in my life.
Made me see I was the foundation and glue to the family we had. He was just the polish.

Makes me mad here now - all the stupid, expereince limited little 20 something shits that come here to troll and argue - becuase they are starved of imagination, creativity and personal zest.

They have to suck it out of others becuase they can't handle being stimulus deprived.

This place was built to replace EP, which was built for socially deprived people, especially tje disabled.

It too was ruined by the ' entitled' bored little wanna bees.

Funny how the world rotates 🤷‍♀️

@OogieBoogie If there is one thing you can rely on, it's that life will kick the shit out of everyone. I do believe that's why we come here, that's after all, how we learn and grow. So, with the knowledge of that, we don't need to worry about the newborns who don't have the life experience yet to have taught them any empathy. They'll get their's.
