I joined 2Peas back in 2000 and then left, then came back recently. Always enjoyed reading the posts on the board but didn't post much myself. Someone always seemed to say it better than I could!

I've been a lurker for most of the time at Two Peas, but I feel that this new board is a fresh start! Everyone is "new" here and I'm hoping it will give all of us lurkers a fresh start! Very well said! I totally agree! I'm another lurker, and I definitely plan on posting & commenting more.

;)I was a major lurker! Less than 800 posts in 14 years! I'm trying to be more active on this board and help keep it alive, otherwise I won't have anything to read in the morning!

I've been lurking for five years (just over 300 posts). However, I use to come to 2Peas every day (more than once a day usually). I loved that place. I loved the threads and the great wit and humor of so many people. There were literally times I was sitting at my desk laughing so hard I was crying at some of the posts. I was shocked when I found out they were closing down. As soon as I found out, I headed to 2Peas and could not for the life of me figure out why no one was talking about them closing down until I tried to start a thread and realized all the buttons were gone and we could only read. I'm so glad to have found this place and see so many familiar people, although there are still so many missing. I will try to do my best to be more active in order to keep this place moving along.

When I first joined in 2001 I used to participate all the time. Someone asked if there were any stay at home Moms that wanted to form a group that would chat daily and I joined that. We were called the "Homey's" We had stay at home moms, Grandmas and just single gals that wanted to become part of a smaller group, so we moved over to the board that had scrapchat, swaps etc... We still participated on the other boards, but not nearly as much. We talked almost everyday on our little group. We put together a trip and all of us that could, met up in real life. Over the years the group had gone from about 20 to 5. Life has a way of just taking over and some gals just didn't have time to keep going in the group. Unfortunately one of our members (Joanne) passed away. The last remaining 5 of us still go on trips together. 4 of us live all over the U.S. and one in Canada. We pick a place and every other year we meet up for vacation. It's been 13 years! We now have moved to facebook so we can see each other's stuff easier. I think I am one of the only ones that still lurked daily on 2 peas. It's my go to spot while I am on my lunch at work. I usually only post on posts asking questions about trips to the area I live. It's just easier to keep my mouth shut and read other people's opinions than to get into a heated discussion about any topic. Some people can fight about anything! LOL

While I was a long time pea, I was a big lurker. I hope to change that here.

I was also a loooong time lurker, but I loved reading through the boards, getting ideas, tips, inspiration and a great sense of online community. I think I finally was brave enough to post when my husband was about to have brain surgery 3 years ago. I will miss 2peas but I'm already linking the looks of it here!

I joined 2peas in August of 2004 (but had lurked for the previous year), in that time I had a whopping 310 posts. I suppose it's like when someone calls you the wrong name and you let it go, they continue, and then you realize you've let it go for so long it'd be uncomfortable to mention your name? Does that make sense? I've read nearly daily for TEN years- I recognize so many 'faces' and know the stories behind them, that to join in and share my familiarity would creep them out (I sound like a psycho, lol!). In my *real* life I'm an introverted- extrovert, in a familiar small group I can be the life of the party (I like to know my audience) but in a larger group I worry that I'll offend someone.

I was mostly a lurker but feel like I "know" so many people. And I don't mean that to sound creepy. LOL I decided that I got in on the beginning of this one and I am going to truly be a part of it! looking forward to getting to know some of my fellow "former lurkers"

Mostly a lurker here. I would like to join in more, though. I loved reading through the boards and will really miss 2peas. Glad this started up, I will join in more to keep it going.

Yes it definitely happened long before yesterday. I saved some of the tutorials but will miss seeing the beautiful photographs and posters. We are here now so will make the most of it :-)

I was almost strictly a lurker on the NSBR. But it was my go-to place for years. I started out on 2peas in the pub and then the photography board, finally landing my lurker status on NSBR. I'm so glad everyone has found a place to land.

Don't wait to long and not get them. :-) I freaked out ...I was on and had gone out for a few mins. came back and couldn't get in at all. So I figured that as soon as I could I get them as soon as I could.

I lurked for a year or two before I decided to jump in. I can truly say it was one of my best decisions. I made friendships there that are priceless! Please come & join us!!!

I use to be really active but the last few years went into Lurk Mode. Hoping to be a better pea again!

Long time member, but I didn't post very often. Hope to change that if time permits. I gained a lot of knowledge reading all the posts.

I'm another longtime lurker, occasional poster. I am kind of a lurker in real life too - I hang out with friends, but I don't do most of the talking.

I kind of feel like one of those people who calls a radio talk show: "Hi, Don. Love your show. I'm a long time listener, first time caller. Here's my question..."
