#10YearsOfEden - Eden Brings Us Closer Together!

Contributor: Ansley Ansley


Last Thursday, the community (and then some) got together to celebrate Eden's 10 Year Anniversary in a rather unorthodox manner, at least by internet standards. We threw a party and invited the world to attend. It was rapid-fire and we saw some new faces in with the alumni contributors; a good time was had by all.


At Eden, there are a few different ways of keeping in touch with each other - commenting on walls, leaving private messages, or simply exchanging an email address when you meet someone you'd like to know more about. Until today, we've never had an official "friending" post that is common on other forums/blogs.

Normally, when we think about what Eden has done for us, it's usually on an individual level and we talk about how hanging out here has increased our scope of tolerance, or improved our personal relationships with our partners. But, how can we become more tightly-knit as a community?

Let's start with an easy one, if you are open to having new friends on Eden please leave a comment stating that you wish for others to contact you via Eden's in-house communications.

Don't feel comfortable with an influx of followers or wall comments and private messages? That's okay, too! Should this be the case, simply talk about how Eden has brought you closer to either knowing your full desires and wants or how it's brought you closer to friends, family, and partners!

This post is a great idea, Stormy!

I'm certainly open to making new friends on Eden. Anyone can feel free to message me on here, or to leave a comment on my wall. I'd certainly love to talk to open-minded individuals!

I agree with SMichelle, this is a great idea, Stormy!

I would love to make some new friends. It is always nice to communicate with others here on EF and be there for them.

Thank you for thinking of this Stormy . Like SMichelle and LusciousLollypop I would like to make more friends on Eden there are certainly many I've never communicated with that I admire for their insight and reviewing skills.

I'm open arms in meeting new people, making friends, swapping stories, ideas, or just having a good ole' conversation. I'm available here at Eden on my wall, private messaging, you can email me, or look at the other social options on my profile.

Great idea Stormy!

This is a cool way to bring the community closer together.

I might be a new member to the Eden community, but so far I love it! All the people I've spoken too are very friendly and accepting, it's stays true to its name. If anyone wants to message me or leave me a comment, I'll gladly respond as soon as I can, I'd love to meet some new people!

I love it when people contact me through the in house email, through my offsite email or through skype.

Reading a personal message on my wall here is such a special thing that I often remember people solely based on what they have written on my wall. It is a great feeling and I really want to say thank you because on some days it's the difference between a deep funk or a flash of sunlight to my day.

At any rate I always answer a personal message regardless of where it is left and I am always here to help. I love making new Eden Friends. Bring it on!

I don't mind if anyone wants to be friendly and message me or leave comments on my wall. I'm usually a loner on here and keep to myself most of the time. I'm nice. =] I feel totally comfortable talking to anybody on here, even if I don't really know them very well.

Eden has really taught me so much! I've learned a ton about toys but also to be more accepting of others. I thought I was openminded before but I feel even more openminded now. Me and my partner have a lot more fun too.

I love my Eden friends. Sometimes I think they're the only friends I have.

Awesome, I'm really glad you all think this is a good idea. Sometimes it can be scary to reach out to people we don't know.

I'm always open to messages, though I may not always be able to respond right away I will get back with people ASAP.

Anyone is welcome to contact me! I'm also on Facebook look me up under my profile.

I like getting PMs on Eden. It's like getting actual mail. I enjoy specific comments on my wall, too, like when someone mentions a thread or a review or asks about a specific toy or product.

I usually follow people back when I feel a connection to them. Either on the forum, or through PMs or on the wall with specific comments and questions.

Wonderful idea Stormy!

My virtual door is always open and all are welcome stop by. I have more online friends than real friends and rather like it that way. On site PM, my wall or emails (Address is on my wall), either way I welcome any one that wants to chat, needs advice or just wants to say hi. You can find me on Facebook too

I have thoroughly enjoyed being part of EF even for the short time I've been here. It's only been about the middle of of July since I joined EF. So many people have reached out and welcomed me offering to help in any way which has really given me a genuine sense of community. I look forward to paying it back in ways that create more community AND FUN!!! And that's what keeps me here. Oops, I forgot the toys, my bad. So here's to THE TOYS - YES!!!, fun, community, and another 10 years of wonderful surprises with EF!

Awesome post! I LOVE making new friends, and meeting newbies to show the ropes is just so much fun. That's one of the reasons I love the mentor program! Of course there are students who want to keep it all business, but it's so great when you form a real friendship with someone and show them how great a community this is.

So, weather we're already friends or you don't know me, I LOVE getting messages and talking to people. I also am open to any questions and such, and would love to help any users in any way I can.

I love making new friends! I'd especially love to meet a friend to actually talk to more then Eden. I'm open to exchanging messages for a while and eventually more. I've already meet one really awesome person here who I have exchanged numbers with, so you could be next!

I'm always willing to help. You can ask me questions about the site, products, or any of my reviews. I'm always willing to help someone with any issue. Please...I ask that all questions remain appropriate!

Anyone can comment on my wall as well! Even if you just say "Follow"...you will get a comment back from me.
