I realized yesterday that I'm free  with this new site. I've had at least one person IRL that was reading things I said on the bucket. I suspected at least one other and really, I know some nosey ppl that would probably could have found me that I always wondered about. It's like a clean slate. It wouldn't be hard to find the new site (we all did) but I doubt any of them would search too terribly hard once they saw the site was gone. |

Yes! I stopped posting because the ex knew who I was on the board and I never wanted him to find anything out about me. I doubt he would have taken the time to search for me there, let alone keep searching for a new site if the old one is gone, but now I feel like with a new site I can be a little more open again.  |

Yes! Funny thing is, I don't know why because I'm sure there are peas here that I either didn't get along with or that I had blocked. But, so far, everyone has seemed to be much nicer. at least for now. LOL They may scare me back into my hole later, though.  |

There's something about a fresh start that kind of resets everyone to the same spot....it has definitely been freeing!

I do...I just hope it will last. I was a Pea for several years but my post count never got above 1000. A not so nice Pea sent me a pmail once letting me know that I was the target of "the blog" over a seemingly innocuous post I made once and after that I didn't post much. I lurked everyday. I feel like I know so many of you guys (relieved to finally see you on a post here Kiki, I was getting worried) so having the refugee camp has been very "freeing".
Freebird, how are your chickens doing? No more trouble with the neighbor's dogs I hope...

Everyone seems to be nice and very honeymoon-ish now. |

I do. I know of an online stalker I have who knew about 2peas. So glad to have this new place to chat. Of course using the same name isn't really hiding oh well lol

I really like proboards. The privacy settings allow you to make your profile and posts available to registered users only and you can block your posts from users if you choose to.

For me it's a little different, I felt freed being able to have an opinion and voice as I please (respectfully). I came from a place where it wasn't ok to have your own opinion, if you didn't agree with those in charge you were scolded, your post was deleted or told to be quiet. It's refreshing being here!

I've probably posted more in here already than I did on the old site in 9 years! So far it is much more cuddly and fluffy. Oh and the plus that my ex would never find me is a bonus over other sites I use.

I am enjoying the clean slate feeling for sure! It is like when you get a new email account ... for a few days your email is so neat and clean |

There was one pea yesterday that I noticed and she was already making bitchy comments so I blocked her. Blocking on this site is MUCH better than blocking on 2Peas. They are really not there! I don't see that she posted at all. Love it!! Someone even quoted something she said and I didn't see the quote. Awesome!! |

My issue at 2Peas, was I could still see her posting and every once in a while I would unhide a post of hers just to see what rude thing she said. I really shouldn't have done that because she really got under my skin. She was just downright nasty to everyone in her path. She's no one to me, so I don't need that negativity in my life. |

I'm liking it too. This board is also more user friendly I think. Not so complicated to post pictures, a "like" button, emoji, etc.

I agree, it seems nicer here and it will be less restrictive too, such as being able to share scrap sales info etc, which the TOU prevented in the bucket.
I guess some of the mean peas will find there way here the way we all did, but I'll enjoy the harmony while it lasts. And there's always the blocking facility.
As for being found here - I was a bottom tier pea who no-one will even remember, let alone worry about. And nobody in my real life knows about this place (or the bucket for that matter). I hope those of you who have\are being stalked can be safe here. |

I was more of a general scrappin board poster but I was an everyday NSBR lurker and it feels more light and sunshiney over on this new site.

How do you make your posts only visible to registered users please? I like the sound of that. Go to Profile Edit Profile (small gray box on right corner) Select Privacy Tab Go to Activity Change the setting in drop down box to registered users Below that is "member block list" if you need it |
