I too want to express my appreciation for you getting this set up so quickly so that none of us needed to enter therapy over the loss. By the feeling in the pit of my stomach when I found the NSBR was shut down, I realized that the board has become an important part of my day. And with how smoothly this transition has been, and how much nicer this board seems to be, we should have done a mass exodus a long time ago.

Thank you thank you. I too did not realize how important y'all are to me everyday even though I was mostly a lurker.

Thank you for setting this up and for your patience with what must be a little overwhelming. Hopefully users here will self-moderate and respect your boundaries as a non-paid volunteer who doesn't need to deal with drama/unending requests! You rock. Oh, I was hoping there would be some drama. I enough popcorn to share.

Thanks so much for getting all of this going. I'm still hoping for a political board. I'm all for diversity, but the political stuff is always arguing the same points over and over again. If you decide not to do it, I will accept your decision gracefully. But 10 threads of the same crap on the front page is going to get old. Thanks a bunch!! Didn't 2peas have a political section at one time? I agree with the above poster about 10 threads of the same crap at a time... But...it is your board and if we want to stay we will play by your rules. Thank you so much for setting this all up for us.

1200 members in 24 hours! Wow, you've really done such a great job finding us a new home. I love the new forum. I am quite happy to have all the threads on one forum. It makes me read topics I perhaps wouldn't normally be drawn to.

Thank you for taking this on. My heart sank last night when I clicked for my nightly peaing and it was no longer there.
I have gotten so much good advice, ideas, et. here.

I must say, this was an amazingly smooth transition for having no notice. You had us up and running so quickly! I nominate you to be in charge of the healthcare.gov website. And kudos to those who worked so quickly to get the word out on other boards.
Thanks!
And as an IT person, I would strongly suggest you appoint someone else to at least have partial keys to the kingdom for the ol' "in case you get hit by a bus" scenario. I'm sure you can appoint someone without giving away all the admin keys. It's always good to have a backup for a multitude of reasons and a gathering place for this community is obviously important to a lot of people!

You are my hero for getting this set up so quickly. Thank you for taking the time, and I hope it doesn't become too much of a burden for you.
Also, I know that there are some people who would have preferred a separate political board, but I am happy that you are going to keep everything NSBR in the one place.

Thank you so much for starting this board. I have been a pea since 2002 going to try to join in more instead of just reading.

Is this costing you money? Do you need to set up a paypal button for donations?

Thank you for starting this board. Just run it however is easiest for you. I am sure some people will complain no matter what you do, but most peas will be supportive.

As a 10-year pea with only 200-something posts I definitely read more than posted. However, I visited the NSBR almost every day, it was such an incredible wealth of diverse information - from breaking news to product reviews. The peas are the best source for it all. I'm so grateful that you were able to get this up & running so quickly!

Thank you so very much for setting this up. I was going through withdrawals.
Never knew how much these boards meant to me. I will certainly become a more active member than I was there.

The fact that I went from utter devastation to elation within 4 hours yesterday is still astonishing to me. I will echo what was said previously -- the transition from 2peas to this new group was super fast and smooth, and for that I am very, very impressed! Kudos to you, admin (whoever you are), and THANK YOU!!
