There was a thread about what the peas would do if Two Peas shut down and I will admit I thought you were all a bunch of doomsdayers. Luckily I had read enough of that thread to know that something else would be set up. So I googled and found another message board that had a thread about where the peas moved. I was here by the end of the first day or second.

Early on our number appeared under our avatar and then someone made a Refugee Sprout badge. I don't know when that was or what the cut off was to be a sprout (haha!) but if you go to the members tab, click on date joined it will put everyone in order of when they joined and you can count. I am surprised how many people got here so quickly! 4 hours after it began there were already 300 people signed up. ginacivey who will forever by gina vinci to me, was the first member after admin.
You don't need to count, if you go to your profile your number is at the end of the URL (after /user/). If you're on mobile you may need to click into the address bar to see it.
carolynhasacat yours is 2250
Wow! Thank you for that. Makes it really easy vs counting hundreds of names, lol!

I got an invite from a pea when 2Peas was closing.

Did a search and found it. I love that they still have the board. I miss the store though too.

There was a thread on the old board about starting this one since the old board was closing.
I don't think that's right - I was one of the very first to sign up here, and the old board had already been closed down for a few hours before this one was created. That was one reason it was so shocking I think, the old board closed down with no notice, so none of us could make plans for where we'd go. (Thankfully they did leave the PM system working for a while)
agreed - all the announcing happened via a 2peas group on FB

Like some of the others, I think that I saw something on the 2Peas board about this site, or on another site that I was checking out as a backup.
this is now about the only place I hang out

I evacuated to Reddit, and found out about this pretty quickly. I hung out for a bit and joined a day or 2 later. This really is a great little spot, isn't it?
