I wasn’t around then but I’ve always been a bit confused about the old 2Peas. I’ve heard a lot about it being a place full of drama but I also have heard some of the big scrapbookers (Ali Edwards sticks in my mind) were part of 2Peas. Did the scrap celebrities participate in the drama too?

I love old 2Peas but I love it here. I loved the thread about the Swap Horror Stories. I miss that one so much, lol. I still think about that one post of the lady ringing the little bell for every LO she got done. I still giggle like a two year old about that. myboysnme I didn't like Pub board either. Left a bad impression on me for a lot of big names in the industry. I am all for people wanting to be successful but when you do it like a mean clique girl that shows your true colors. Now, I feel like I have seen a lot of true colors in this industry. There were some sweet girls on it too. I am sorry they got caught in that mess. It makes me wonder if it hurt their careers in this industry and we didn't get to see some true talent. I was one of the original's that didn't leave for LM, lol. I guess I am a creature of habit. Didn't you all abandon ship because the male owner of 2Peas was verbally abusive to a group of the major OP's? I am trying to remember. I was a regular but not major back then since I was over at Cricut and SCS. I love our stamping board. I am not saying that to be nice. I do really love it. I do miss the old stamping board. I think it was because a lot of us were stamper's with a long history of stamping. It was a different stamping style. We would talk about Crayola crayons and have challenges with crayons. I also knew family member's names. I do love our new 2Peas. We don't flame each other and bring up post counts. If we don't agree we have intelligent conversations about it and why we have those views. It is educational and not hurtful. I feel this board is more about sisterhood and no competition. I love that so much.

Did the scrap celebrities participate in the drama too? We posted at the same time, lol. Yes, the stars created drama and contributed their opinions to the drama's. There were the angels too like beautiful Shimelle who was always so kind and classy. A lot of us knew the stars before they were stars. When we talk about them now it is truly "I remember you before" kind of thing.

But back then it seems that to be anyone in the industry you were active on 2peas. It got so you knew who was going to be the next big name by how popular they were on 2peas pub board. Before the pub board the experienced and published scrappers got tired of new scrappers asking the same questions. They formed some kind of new to scrapping check here first type of pinned post. Then they started the Pub because they were so far advanced. What really turned me against them was the differentiation between 'scrapbook artists' on the pub board vs plain old memory keepers on SBR. For me it went downhill from there.

I was a more of a lurker on the boards, I loved sitting down every morning while my daughter napped and looking through the gallery, gosh so many pages of inspiration. I didn't venture off the general scrapping board and didn't contribute much as I got ripped a new one from someone on the NSBR board who didn't like what I posted, so I kept to myself mostly. I did feel that there was a bit of cool girl clique that ruled the board and decided to make the move over to Scrap in style TV (SISTV, remember that place) as it seemed to be a little bit more to my style in terms of scrapbooking but that place was even worse with its cliques so I headed back to twopeas. I do miss the volume and frequency of posts but this board has a nicer vibe.

I remember SISTV! They were on to a good thing there and then it just fell apart didn't it. I don't even know what happened? I think I actually talked on that forum. And I used to talk at SC way back in the day, I think I subbed there from 2007 to maybe 2010? But all the suck-ups did my head in over there. There were so many problems with ordering and SC wouldn't pay for more servers to cope with the load at release but all the idiots who would sit there saying 'it's only paper, don't stress' grrrrr! Drove me mad. So again, I would end up back at 2Peas, reading a lot and never saying a word lol!
Oh and man, I miss those magazines! Simple Scrapbooks, CK and that square one that was just pictures of creations with hardly any writing that I can't remember the name of. They would arrive and I'd find a place to sit down with a coffee and have a read for half an hour, it was bliss!
