I think that I will. It seems like a fresh start for all of us.
I was on 2 Peas for more than 9 years with various board burps etc but I was always a bit intimidated by all of the "Well Known" really active peas. While I miss 2 Peas, I really hope that more of us feel free to post and interact with each other!

I hope that everyone, lurkers especially, will post more. That's what makes a board really great. When it is constantly moving, with new information.

Lurker here...I have read this board for years and always felt a little intimidated to actually post anything. I feel like I "know" so many here and no one even knew I existed! Hell..I was even nervous just posting this!

I'm going to try! I read pretty much every day for years, but had very few posts.

Hell..I was even nervous just posting this! See, but you did it! I understand the intimidation because board validity seemed to tie in with post count. It's now a clean slate for everyone.. at least for a few days!

Hell..I was even nervous just posting this! This...I posted a little but to be honest, some of the more prolific posters were kind of intimidating and sometimes not very nice. I am 100% okay with people disagreeing with each other about politics and anything else but there were some that were quite nasty about it. I suspect there were a few posters who were medicated, self-medicating, or in desperate need of medication. (Nothing against medication at all...I find it helps me a lot.

I'm really going to try! I agree with the others, that it can be a bit intimidating here. I'd say I'll stick to the non-controversial posts, but around here, anything can become a fight, so I guess we'll see how it goes!

I will try! I lurked since 2001 and when I heard the news of Two Peas closing I literally cried. (I'd already had a really crappy day and that was just the icing on the cake.) I posted sporadically, but not enough for anyone to know me. I'm willing to give it a go.

When I have something to add sure. 2peas was always the place for me to go to get the news. Without it I would never know what's going on in the world

I'd like to. I lurked on TwoPeas for a long time before I even registered, and I registered 12 years ago! I posted quite a few layouts and read daily, but just couldn't bring myself to post. It always seemed like somebody has already said what I was going to say, or there was drama.

I think I posted a few times but recently much more of a lurker - lunchtimes at work were spent on the NSBR thread so I was very glad to see this new board open up - and even better my work servers are letting me into it!
I'm hoping to post more but of course being over the pond we've got the time difference to deal with. Plus an awful lot of the questions that get asked are about American terminology for things that as a Brit I just don't understand - but find very intriguing... like the whole schooling and college system for starters!

Another lurker here. There was a bit of a panic with the news yesterday - wondering where I'd get my 2peas fix!! Since this is a new beginning, I'm going to try my best to come out and participate. Even as a 2peas lurker, it's comforting to see so many familiar pea names here already.

I lurked the last few years, so I've already posted more over here in five minutes than I posted over there in five years. Lol

I have been a lurker on the NSBR board but a poster on the stamping board. So here I am and I am going to join in! Thank you very much!

It's funny, a couple of you on this thread are pretty well known to me (in a good way!) and I wouldn't consider you lurkers. I guess maybe we're more well known that we thought!

I've been mostly a lurker for a little over 5 years, and I agree, I always felt a little intimidated to post anything. I am kind of shy IRL, and I've made it a goal to start commenting more, not just here, but on blogs and stuff. I really ❤️ the Pea community!

I would go in phases with lurking and posting. We'll see if I end up posting more here. I do read frequently, so I'm glad this board is off to what looks like a great start already. Hopefully we don't lose too many people with the switchover.

Ive probably have posted more on here the last 20 hours than I did for the last 12 months on 2peas.

I definitely will. I had been on two peas for 12 years and posted occasionally. I changed my user name because I want to post about family problems and brag about my children. My mom knew who I was and I knew a few local people on TWo peas. When we would post who is from where and where do you shop/ crop. The days of the LSS
In fact one of the hated/ mean peas- radical politics -- shows up as a friend of friends on my facebook.

I'm really going to try to post more now. I guess I don't always value my opinion as much as I should.

I sure hope so! For some reason it seems less intimidating here.

I'll try! I posted more when I worked, but now that I'm going to school/not sitting in front of a computer all day I tend to post less.

First of all, let me say I love the message boards and while I thought I was going to take a break for the summer, I have quickly been sucked back in! I had a few reasons for lurking. If someone (or a few someones) had already posted what I was going to say, then I didn't see the point in being redundant. If there were already 50+ responses, then chances of someone reading what I wrote seemed slim, so I wouldn't bother. Sometimes a thread wasn't about what I thought it would be about, so I'd read & run. And then there were the controversial threads. I may think a good game, but I never wanted to get into a battle w/someone so I was definitely keeping up w/the posts but wouldn't put in my 2 cents. So basically, who knows? I might not post any more often here, but I'll definitely keep comin' back!
