"The flow of time is always cruel... its speed seems different for each person, but no one can change it..."

"The only constant in life is change"

These quotes reflect what is thought to be a basic axiom of life; everything changes eventually. Be it people in your life, where you live, the climate, and ultimately yourself- you will probably be in quite a different set of circumstance 3 years from now. As time goes on its brutal churn it will take your surroundings, routines, and perceptions and transform them.

But SC seems to be some kinda of enigma. Surely, eventually an online community seems bound to make some kind of change. New casts of people come in, leadership changes, the people change as time goes on. But in the unique cade of SC, nothing seems to ultimately destroy the core aspects of what you might expect on your average SC visit. In a world of constant chaos and change, a band of misfits set out to create something that never changes; a shitpost that never comes to its conclusion. Steadfast in tone, SC allows you to interact with a fixed cast of people that don't seem keen on changing up their modus operandi.

What can one expect from their average visit to SC? It's fairly consistent. Same people, same issues, same beefs, same allies, same attitude, and same problems. As shown in often discussed 'SC ideals', resistance to change is imbedded in the DNA of the forum. And while new characters may enter the fray to subsequently stir up new mini dramas before being eaten alive and running for the hills, the main cast is fairly consistent. Like a band that never changes lineup; the same signature style that you know and love, but not much new comes to the table. It is subsequently the allure and the fatal flaw of the forum; you know what you're here for and what to expect, and you eat it up. But if you're looking for something more than what you see, you'll be disappointed.

How this place stays so consistent despite having a wide array of relatively mentally turbulent people is anybody's business. It is odd how little people respond to hard lessons in life, never taking the hint as the same mistakes are made and the same flaws persist. Typically, one should constantly seek to improve and develop oneself. To lock oneself into any one conviction that never changes is to cease the honing for improvement that is paramount to a healthy existence. Perhaps it just isn't their time in the great energy machine of the universe to improve their condition. But it's just an observation.

Regardless of its repetition, people seem content doing the same thing ad infinitum here and that's cool, but it probably gets stale to a lot of people, and if anybody is interested in the advancement of the forum or keeping it fun changes ought to be made. Just a suggestion. People get back what they put in be it by mind body and soul. This applies to more than just internet existence. Maybe someday in existence these people will be ready to progress.

Is the cast really that consistent? I've seen two distinct iterations of this forum and they seem very different to me. I suppose half the reason I'm lingering here at the moment is in the hopes that the old iteration and cast might reappear, because that was genuinely fun and entertaining. 

This current version is honestly boring af, and I think my participation speaks more to a current void in my life than any specific appeal of this website lol

 Which iteration were you a part of then? Surely since I've appeared, it's been fairly constant in tone. I mean, it was novel to me then so I had a blast but over time I got sick of the repetition. But I do believe, there were superior permutations of the same shit; the present season seems particularly uninspired.

 Also, you're lingering here in hopes people you used to know to go here appear? Sounds like you're missing something; something you maybe had when you came here in the past; like going to a childhood home as a middle aged adult. There's some a certain bittersweet pleasure to it as meaningless as it ultimately is. Still can be nice.

Roughly the 2017 iteration, and returned mid last year.

It's definitely not just the lack of novelty that's making it boring. This version is far less interactive, feels more like 3 people monologuing to themselves. And vastly less active, I remember there consistently being 4-5 people active in the chat at pretty much all time.

If it continues this way, I'm probably gonna peace out and check back in another four years lol

 I came around the 2018 iteration. Can't speak to your time, but yeah agreed on the 3 people monologuing. Past versions did have the same 3 people doing the same monologues, but then there were other people monologuing, side characters, subplots, factions, character arcs, ect... There was a web-like complexity in the dynamics that the forum has since abandoned for monotony.

Yeah, I think it's begun the death spiral tbh. 

I don't expect this place to exist in 12 months time. 

Interesting things happen everyday, in other places and other forums. In here, not so much, but when it does, it puts a smile between our cheeks.

Luna's SC content wise was more extreme. For most of it's existence it was completely lawless, with the exception of CP.  ( CP brings ruin to lives simply by having it show up on one's screen ).

The Lawless SC, left room for more self exploration of the darker half. For me it's been a sharpening tool for tolerance and being more indifferent toward people and things I don't like.

Now, SC is simply about keeping tabs on people I can't trust once in awhile, or people who'd cheer at their own comrades downfall.

Other day my date told me about this doctor that gave her his card, and she looked him up and found he was on the news for sexual harassment charges. She showed me the article, and from the story we see how he made a comment to a couple about her riding her husband like a motorcycle, and another incident where he jokingly told a nurse to bend over his knee so he can spank her.

I then told my date how if a doctor did or said the same things to us, how we'd burst out laughing and lose no sleep over it. My date got really giddy and was like "I know !" This in spirit is SC's way. Mental strength, not weakness. I'm not particularly proud of SC, and I'm not very fond of many of you. But there are qualities found here the typical person can learn and utilize, because there is bullshit in the world. As for me there's nothing left here. The last thing I've learned from SC is that even my patience can be broken, but fortunately, this isn't forever so I'll last, until it's taken away again, one way or another.

 This is seemingly a common position on the forum by older heads. It became about occasionally keeping tabs on the regular members. I think the reason Luna SC was more extreme was that she went out of her way to make sure the place was generating something to keep the dynamics fresh. In that sense she pushed the forum in different ways like a puppet master with the goal of making it interesting and fueling forum use. She had fun with it for awhile then got bored of her own creation and dropped it.

 10 years ago Luna showed up at the Nabble forum which was hosting Socioworld's, or SW's forum.

That nabble forum was "thee" most vile thing to ever be online. 100% lawless. It was dark web. No moderation whatsoever. Make M.E. Thomas seem more of what she claimed to be. 

Nabble announced making that section of it's forums into a paysite due to it containing adult content and no one wanted to pay for it, so it was going to close. ( Over some time Nabble made the old forum public again, while not too long ago now, they finally killed it )

Luna, was a noob to the site, she came in a few weeks before it's imminent destruction. I boast when I say I told Luna she'd end up doing something great, before she created a new site for M.E. A lot of the original members weren't too keen on joining Luna's forum, probably because they spent enough time and energy smacking her around. At 17 Luna had a strong head and wouldn't flee from cold and ridged characters online.

The point I'm making.

Luna's SC was rough, because she wanted to please the community. She was young and wanted to fit in and doing the community a solid. We liked having this place where we could go out of bounds or push buttons and pull levers nowhere else would allow. SC was eccentric in interesting ways, for real. It was a genuine psychological study. Those who learned to enjoy themselves in such a place found peace in chaos, which I think is good cause the world is chaotic.

I do believe, if we don't learn to find peace in chaos in this life, we won't be prepared for the reality of eternal timelessness, which will be an endless saga of good and bad. When I say snowflakes go to hell, I'm not asking or demanding it. I mean the snowflake will find themselves in a hell, because there's no such thing as "truths" only the truth.
