First, I want to say that the idea behind SW is great, but the sites format is not. Not all content is right for all people so I feel it is important that a person has to join a group to gain access to the content of that group. If a person joins a group and does not like the subject, then they just back out. On SW you don't have that choice. Everything posted by anyone is put right up front for everyone to see whether in a group or not and this defies the idea of anonymous communication solely with people of similar interests.I have interests that aren't for everyone and others have interests that aren't for me hence the option of joining certain groups and not others.My opinion here is based solely on my experience with EP. I will state openly that I grew up with certain fetish interests that started around the age of 10 or so and I grew up keeping everything a secret and always wondering why I had these interests. I was terrified to tell anyone. I came across EP many years ago while doing internet searches about my interests hoping to find information. I joined because I was able to get into specific groups and "talk" with people with similar interests and get other people's perspectives on the subjects in CLOSED groups...meaning that only people who joined a specific group had access to that groups stories, questions, etc.Now, for SW this is not the case. You can join groups of people with similar interests but the groups are not closed. Anything you post shows up on SW's main page front and center for everyone to see. I know my reasons for joining certain groups is to be able to openly talk about things that are not considered normal for most people and I respect that, SO...I have stopped posting anything on SW partially out of respect for people who don't want to see or even know about such things and because I consider my stories to be somewhat private for those who share those interests.I hope that one day SW will follow EP's example of having to join a group to be able to see the stories rather than having everything open to everyone whether a part of the group or not. I know I am one of many who feel this way and if that format is changed, then I will consider using SW again.
