Similar Worlds

It's the only site of it's kind really. But it is no Experience Project. It's been in decline for while. Admin are great, no complaint there. The problems are user base.

Where to start -
Older or middle aged adults who act like they never left middle school. Some kindergarten. The arguments, accusations, name calling and dramatic over sharing to name a few. Tiny mole hills made into mountains of drama. Who did what and when, who blocked or bullied or stalked and on and on. How do they even handle REAL life crisis? Victim mentality is high. But you never hear the other side of it.

Then the other extreme is toxic positivity or a few, who go around with over sweet flattery and "kindness" like a passive aggressive narcissist trying hard to be liked, lolz. It oozes fake. Then the prima donnas - with the "I deserve" mentality.

Then there are the sex starved where the minds are stuck in a deep rut of titties or other body parts. Objectification of women is extreme. So boring.
Mental and emotional illness is at an all time high.

Sure there are few decent peeps and some writers keep the place attractive. But many are leaving. If there were more mature users and substance the site could be really good! Don't know how to get them there.

I found Similar Worlds after "Yahoo! Answers" shut down. It's a much smaller community, so you get to know everyone well. It's a fun environment to hang out, chat, and laugh.

There are some poor reviews on here, but no site is perfect. There's always going to be a few bad people, no matter where you go.

It's good to have a sense of humor and not take anything or anyone too seriously.

Whoever said that those bad reviews of this cesspool are dishonest has no idea what they're talking about.

SimilarWorlds is absolute garbage. It is full of overly aggressive users and admins and mods who defend them at any cost. Before I left this horrible website I had several friends banned from there just because they got in arguments and fights with some of the admins's favorite users, who seem to constantly be in contact.
There's a huge mob mentality on this website... oh and a lot of diaper fetishes.

A. V. O. I. D

The only redeeming feature of this online forum is the solid backbone of veterans from EP. Without their input and participation, SW would be nothing. Many refugees from EP have left. The admin(s) are of poor quality. Gangs of bullies travel this site causing mayhem and are allowed to cause trouble. The ongoing influx from other sites means a younger crowd who mostly is depressed and afraid and wanting attention with relationship problems. Quality postings are few. This site continues to deteriorate. It is like the lesser baby brother of a glorious star, EP. I spend time on SW only to see my friends and chat in pms with them. Limit your time here. You have a better life offline. Complaints are ignored. People are falsely accused of wrongdoings. Warnings are placed on profiles often incorrectly. That is all. PoetryNEmotion. 2024-01-04.

SimilarWorlds, a recreation of the old site Experience Project, brings together just anyone from anywhere. I've never met such a cosmopolitan group of users with people from all walks of life, political viewpoints, and parts of the world. It can be a weird place to get into but so many users are amazing people.

SW also has amazing community and administrator policing of exploitative content. The problem exists as it does on all social media, but people really band together to stop bad actors from hurting people. I've been there for years and hope it lasts for so much longer.

It used to be for members of experience project but the got kicked to the curb adms admin nuno and Andrew deleted and deactivated all there personal groups. They could care less what there members want and just do it there way. Many e pets have left. Many just leave after a few days. If u have autism u are picked on Dailey. Only reason I'm there is I have friends there. I wish someone would start a good social media site

This app seems to work alright but it has a tendency to crash when posting a story or comment. Otherwise it's easy to use and fun

And insignificant. It's mostly a mecca for angry Trump minions and older men trying to groom young babes. The site works pretty good, but the quality of users is terribly lacking.

You're only free to express there if you are a leftist. It's a crybaby woke site filled with child molesters and LGBTQ.

I had been on SW for 6 years and constantly harassed by a group of scammers that scammed me out of some money years earlier. They followed me there after my bank helped me get most of it back. They began ripping my account apart by deleting photos and my best stories. I've been hacked by them for years. When I finally decided to expose them to the community and administration * jumped on saying nothing was happening!? I was shocked and surprised by his hurtful comment. Earlier I had sent him names of these hackers, but he never responded. I hung in there for another year or so untill my account was ruined by them, so I at last left. You will also lose your counter views if you complain, they will all slow way down. The counter views should be eliminated because they pit users against each other, lots of jealousy over that feature. You also have to pay for blocking after a certain amount last I was there. I left almost a year ago after being bullied and data removed. I recommend going to sites where your data can't be removed, AND where you'll be treated with better respect than I was. I'm much happier since leaving.

This is an amazing site where you can give or receive support as well as make posts, comment on those posts or share private messages. You can happily surf the site too. It's under constant development and whilst not perfect so many here would miss it deeply.
Like the real world and the internet in general there are strange or obnoxious people but also decent and caring people.

This site has NO standard of fairness or enforcement of moderation.

For example:

I received threats from a user over her many multiple accounts, and because she and her various cohorts are fairly popular...

When I grew tired of being harassed and reported it. Guess what.

Admin turned it around. Defended them. Ignored my evidence and promptly banned me. Without question.

Apparently she's someone's favorite daughter or girlfriend. When it's like that...

Decent users don't stand a chance.

I've had fun here but it's now a dead website, find somewhere else.
It's always been semi toxic now it's boring as well

Don't be surprised if you find this site to be an unfamiliar world to you if you're normal.
You will like it if you like shallow conversation discussing your latest mental state. Depression is an often high point of discussion. Sexual perversions get good responses. Naked boobies pics are a highlight on Tuesdays.
If you like sitting at a bar drowning your sorrows away you'll have multiple chances for shallow conversations with the sad sacks sitting with you.
If you choose to open up and expand a conversation with a person from another country you'll probably be cut down openly by a wanna be expert that sits proudly amongst their participation trophy's from the high school debate team.
Low membership #'s will leave you talking with the same group of board house wives if you're into that.

Informal, friendly banter. There lots of different topics to discuss.
No matter where you live around the globe. You can join in day or night.

While there was once a sense of hope, that SW would evolve, sadly, it has followed the demise of its predecessors.

Writers have abandoned the site enmasse, leaving the feed with just sadness and occasional dramas.

The site abandoned efforts to preserve the individuality of members. This included eliminating the EP inspired features that use to support many with depression and mental health issues.

Currently it appears to be downsizing to something akin to an aimless social blog.

It has some interesting design aspects and lots of troublesome content.

While originally habit forming, the designer has drifted the site towards a highly locked down european centric paradigm, lacking an essence of the american experience.

This leads to a high turnover of new members and alienation of existing members.

Membership growth appears stalled, with an obvious long-term trend to less serious writing and reduced interaction.

Wall Street should eye this venture cautiously.

New members should dabble, test it and follow their interest.

If you are seeking friendships, romance, humor, alternative points of view and discussion... this is not the place.

Recent design changes have made the site lame.

Overall, I recommend avoiding it altogether.

DO NOT go on this website before you read this! So I was just needing another site to share my experiences, and I was asking my questions about why and how I'm curious about something. Guess what?! They were attacking me for being the "s" word! Even the admins and mods are doing their job the wrong way! Be careful when you sign up for this pred prone website! People there are fake! All they do on their profile pages for examples is lie about their "g" word, put false pictures that are not theirs and write up creepy messages when I never asked for them! AGAIN: DO NOT go on this website before you read this!

I used to be a member of EP and I remember it as a place to vent and be yourself (kinks, fetishes, whatever you wanted to post about really). It's become a watered down site full of crybaby whiners who get offended easily and judge others for what they're into. There's a gang of women (and some whimpering simps as well) that mass report you and have you banned if they don't like you or find what they deem "offensive". They'll gang up on you and all their little friends will follow suit until you either leave or are banned from the site. If you want a place where idiots post selfies constantly, political posts run rampant, there are hundreds of simps kissing $#*!, women posting pics of cats and coffee or cry about their past abuse and you have people there offering fake love and support, can't post anything on your mind or that you're into even if it's mildly taboo or you'll get attacked by the gang of condescending women who'll have white knight idiots run to their defense, you're pretty much stuck having to be a kiss $#*!, a boring $#*! who posts about music, food, or how cute puppies are, yeah that place is for boring basic people with no concept of true individuality. You won't fit in unless (as I stated before) you kiss the more popular users asses. If you don't you'll be bullied and admin won't do anything about it. If you defend yourself you'll get banned. Save yourself the aggravation and find a place with more open minded people, not that boring super restricted $#*!hole those stuck up, uptight women made it

I have enjoyed interacting on this website. The friendly staff has made it quite easy to connect with others who share samiliar stories.

I was a member a very long time ago. I was booted for a very absurd (and many users thought so as well) reason. I DIDNT EVEN violate TOS and I was gone for over 2 years. I decided to give the site another try. DivineWind77.

Everyone I spoke to liked my posts. Nobody and I had ANY arguments. And guess what. INSTANTLY booted. No explanation. No review. No justified reasons.

Talk about a bunch of petty people. The moderators apparently hold grudges and play favorites just like children.

If you want adult interaction and fair play. Don't look here. Apparently if they don't like you. They ban you FOR LIFE.

It's the only social media I like using. I started here aged 13 and now I'm 20. People open their hearts here. They are family. Not nice people join but Similar Worlds sorts them out very quickly. You only have to send a message to the organizers. They want to keep this site family friendly. They seem to be there 24/7 ready to leap in to protect you.

Lovely website that makes a difference!
I do really enjoy Similar Worlds,
I've made a lot of great friends there.

There are lots of kind, interesting people on this site,
But yes, a number of trolls as well.

The Admins do seem to handle them fast enough though.
It looks like most of those bad users who got permanently banned. Cam over here to leave fake reviews about similar worlds!

I really haven't been on there long. I heard about the site through a friend on Facebook and I thought it would be a good change of pace, compared to Facebook.

The first day I signed up I noticed my posts wouldn't show up on the main forum of Similar Worlds. And a few more posts after that, same result. I wasn't visible on the site. So I was basically shadow banned. I contacted the admins of Similar Worlds, and got no response at all. Eventually I closed my profile. Clearly my expectations were a little too high for that site.

I tried to make a review about this on Trustpilot. But they took it down, Trustpilot said that my review didn't seem genuine. And wanted evidence. Like... what? What evidence are you looking for? My posts literally got no interaction for the time that I was there. So I sent them screenshots of my posts. They have yet to get back to me on that, and I doubt they will.

Because it looks like there's favoritism going on. Smh.
