I miss the post count and react scores! Are they gone for good?

It was a much appreciated source of validation....
Yes, likes and the react scores are definitely confidence boosting and a source of validation ( and i've never had much of that). I guess because we are among like minded people. I 've never heard people say the things they say here anywhere else here (but i agree with those here). And then i say YES Wow i've never seen anyone say anything like that that i agree with and validates what i had been thinking as we can't discuss suicide anywhere else.! i agree or wow what a insightful comment that i haven't seen anywhere else then i can like the comment and that also is great. and i see a lot of good posts.

I'm pretty sure the post count requirement is at 200 posts, which is definitely not much and is just to make sure that the person has contributed enough to the forum.
Checking my post count for the 1st time since site changed format :pfff:
Seen some posts on twitter, with screenshots of my posts here.


For example


This post I had made was referring to how SS helped me put off potentially CTB dates. Their comment was how I am a cult member SS for posting. This is one of the first things on twitter I saw after getting out of the ward today...so yeahhhhh... I'd like to join in on the semi-private club. Tired of this BS.

They look at. Every. Single. Post. Borderline stalking. Hell, I won't be surprised if they post this. I wish I could ignore it, but I can't. I came here to find some peace from people like them IRL. Knowing they are taking my feelings and putting it on display for all of twitter to potentially see for their agenda annoys me. I don't want to have to leave SS just because of them...

and no fixthe26, even if I'm gone from SS, I would not be better off. I promise you that.

Same avatar on Twitter right? I think I've seen you and been loving your tweets, you're a fabulous advocate. Bravo

I think the new private area is where people are able to share more private things like where they get N, SN, or stuff like that maybe?
How can you get in i have not seen it anywhere in my profile

You'll probably get access within a month or two then. Don't take my word for it, though.

You have to sacrifice a virgin and chant "I am offering this sacrifice for the increase of power of SS admins." and send a video of the process to one of the mods.
I volunteer to be the ummmmm 'virgin' ... *coughs*

This reminds me of being on a forum years ago that had a general discussion only for people who had registered for a whole year, it was an infamous part of the forum. Maybe someday I'll see "The Sanctuary" but the telegram group is real chill and nice.

You won't get there over night. Stick around and answer threads that interest you. With taking part in games it's doesn't actually take too long.

Can confirm it's not 200 post. I don't have access and am way over :)
I think it also has a time thing. I've only been apart of this forum for a little over a month. Even though if it has felt like a year due to my bad mental health lol

How long do you have to be a member to gain access? Just learned about "fixthe26" and am extremely creeped out by the thought that prolifers are reading my posts (plus paranoia that my irls will find my account), would love somewhere more private to post.

You've been here for long enough. You just need 200 messages now.

Sounds like a place for a clique to talk in private which will destroy conversation on the public threads.

It hasn't destroyed anything.
100 more posts and you'll be posting there, too.

I might just be imagining it because I feel like I am seeing fewer and fewer familiar faces (lurking since July). I guess that is to be expected.

A lot of people are laying low or taking time off for various reasons, and there are some who don't feel safe posting in the open forums and don't post there at all anymore. Some are trying recovery. Others, like myself, are anarchists and post wherever we damn well please. :sunglasses:

I'm curious about the sanctuary too.. I've been a member since January 2019, but I guess I don't have enough posts, or a high enough reaction score or whatever other factors it is based off of.

I'm not a very social person, and even being on forums or talking to people gives me so much stress and anxiety.

But now that SS has gone completely private, I am forced to log in, Although I think making it private was for the best.. It still just makes me feel ill.

Regardless, this forum has helped me a lot even though I'm not a very frequent or active poster.

So thank you to everyone.
