I think it would make new people included if available for reading at their leisure. We all know most of those are bound to come up in threads and something available to review is helpful to "newbies" instead of saying, you had to be there, which would make people feel excluded.

I think it's a great idea to have a scrapbook or archive of our history.

Oh that's a great point! Not just for us but for peas- to- be. Great idea.

I'm torn... Do we really need to be dragging old drama over? It seems like it just perpetuates some of the negative.

I'm not worried about me reading it... ;-) Just seems that soon enough the honeymoon will be over and we'll be back to squabbling and fussing. I just hate the idea of having the old crap follow us here. Do we want to compound the usual issues with links to the old crap? My vote doesn't really count, it's just something to ponder...

The things I'd like to see saved are the funny posts we post every year like the baby Jesus post and the Turkey posts (both of them) Those are things we shouldn't lose

Hail yeah! It would be a shame to lose threads like the dogs eating Baby Jesus, the turkey lady, the official start of summer, etc.

I was only on Two Peas for about 9 months, and as a newcomer I loved those hilarious epic threads that everyone referred to. It helped me get up to speed and I felt more included. I'm sure there are still more that would be new to me.

I agree that we should bring them over, but only the classics and not the dog piles.

I voted yes. I didn't bookmark enough things. So it would be great to be able to read some of those.

I think it's a great idea for the epic threads like mentioned before... Baby Jesus, TGD Turkey, Once When I Was Pregnant, Mormon vs. Catholic kitsch, etc. Nothing polarizing, just the famous threads that are dug up every now and then. I don't necessarily agree that they need to be private, but wouldn't really care either way as long as I can read them.

I posted the links to Once When I was Pregnant and What are Your Favorite Smells(the infamous sack sniffer in there) on another thread on this board. I hope others have the good ones bookmarked. I definitely think we should have Giblet Gate to reminisce on. My sister in law wasn't a member of 2peas, but Gibletgate gave her great entertainment.

My thought is no. Reason being that this is a new board that was born of a need for continuity for a group of Peas. The thing is that in order to thrive we need new members! We don't want this site to be a huge clique where potential new folks feel intimidated to join. I often heard and read that non-Peas felt there would be no room for them at 2Peas or would always feel like outsiders. In time this site could well be comprised of half "new" members and it would be sad if we were to be split along the lines of old and new. Continuing to accentuate the differences in our origins may emphasized & promote a split more by keeping the old stuff around. So far we are open, happy and free here and there has been non of the cattiness that so often erupted on the old board. Let's turn over a new leaf, set the bar higher for ourselves and put the word out that this is not the old board but a new place where everyone is welcome! I agree with this post, though it won't let me vote in the actual poll. Aside from the risk of clique-y stuff, for me, I'd also like to put some of my worst Pea moments in the past and leave them there. In fact, if I could have thought of one, I as considering a new handle.

Ok, the vote was overwhelmingly yes so that is done If there are threads that need moving over to the new board, please flag them for me (report the OP using the dropdown next to the gear at the right hand side of the post)

I vote yes. Even though I was in the pod for 13 years, I still missed some of the classics and would love to be able to read them, especially if they are mentioned in a thread.
