But this is the second time in a month that somehow someone who has been discussed has been brought here mysteriously (the first being the poster who posted about her sister's 4th of July float) I missed this, what was that about? I saw in the thread people saying that SDeven and Bella's account were deleted, is that related? Sdeven is gone... bella and Belia are still here

Changing your name is not that effective. I can hover over your current name and your original user name pops up. I'm sorry that you are feeling so uncomfortable here. I'm not one to let the paranoia and what ifs get to me. Just abide by that rule that we teach our children, don't post anything here that you wouldn't say IRL to people and you should be fine. She's right @teedoobieone...pops right up yup, I see that. I made the mistake of making my display and user names the same. I went ahead and changed it back. I am just not going to worry about it. This morning was just really eye opening.

For the sake of the OP in that other thread, I think said thread should die. She's probably praying it will. (I've wanted to post that request "over there," but it would have been counter-productive, so thanks for the opportunity to say it here. )

I don't tell any of my friends or family about this board. I am not on Facebook, either. DH could find the board on my browser history, but he doesn't care what I post and would not look.
I never use real names. Other than that, I am going to continue to post and share.

OP, please don't go away. I would miss you. If you want an untraceable name, you could close down this account and start a whole new one. Let's see if I recognize the new you.

Eh, I don't think I post anything I can't defend, but I also don't post anything too personal about people.
You all know that I am a teacher, but I never come here while at work. If I am peaing on a school day, I've either taken the day off or it is a scheduled day off.

We can say that there has only been an instance or two but let's not ignore the fact that 99 percent of the people here are from NSBR at Two Peas where we know that stuff like this happened several times.

As I posted in another thread I am seriously reconsidering my participation here. I prefer to keep my private life, my pea life and my other social media lives separate and it is clear there is at least one pea here who has no problems crossing those boundaries and connecting them if she decides she doesn't like you. I try hard not to over share but I am sure at times I have over shared a snippet here or there that could bite me in the butt spectacularly in ways I didn't imagine when sharing, should a pea decide I am a "bitch" and unworthy of common courtesy. I Have currently removed my avatar and am exploring whether my screen name can be tied to me. my question is, is there a way blocking can be set up like fb... Where if I block someone not only can I not see their posts but they can not see mine, either? A few posts on that particular thread have made me question the sincerity of a few posters and wonder if they were the guilty parties and I would rather they not have access to my posts, should I stay. I really don't want to leave butthe siuation is weighing heavily on my mind. To be honest I don't recognize your name, I might have recognized your avatar though. I am not sure who you are referencing, and I am not sure what the situation you are referring to is, BUT, I kind of concur. Having been here for so long I have been around where peas have used information to wreak havoc on personal lives of peas. That's why I will not answer all those probing questions/threads such as "what is your real name"..... "what state do you live in"..... "how old is everyone here".... "what are your pet names".... "How many kids do you have, ages, names" etc. They have all been asked in various degrees over the year. How easy to compile information. SaveI agree... Why does anyone care how many kids ( actually I have a kid , who because of their profession, has no online presence at all, I avoid mentioning anything about this child), etc. I sometimes think people post to up their count, not because of any real curiosity

I do believe it was a family member who had inside knowledge about the event that ousted the pea. You said that on the other thread as well. The person who came to the board specifically said it was someone that he did not know. It was pointed out more than once, before you made the above statement and again after.

I felt kinda the same way OP. I went and changed my profile and deleted several posts with pictures and was re thinking the whole participation in this board. I also dropped out of the Peas facebook group. That thread was crazy!

I stand corrected, well clearly Carblover should delete all her peafriends from facebook as she can't trust one of them. Shit is crazy!

Like I own it.

I agree, it really sounds like Annabella is the one who outed Carblover.
There are some really evil people who come here.

I didn't even know that there was a Peas Facebook group.
Even though I couldn't count the number of peas who know my real name and address on both hands and toes - that ship sailed years ago - I wouldn't want to share my FB stuff with the group. There is too much of my family connected to my FB page for me to feel comfortable with that. But, I'm old and am picky about who I friend on FB.

I read some of that thread and understand your concerns. I did a reverse google image search last night of my avatar, and also searched my user name. I got no hits. Have you tried searching for yourself to see if that makes you more comfortable? I'm a little curious though. And wonder if a "pea detective" who has no connection to me, can figure out who I am. If you're up for the task and want to PM your search results to me, I'm all ears! I just googled your photo and google had you under "cute hairstyles"

There are about 6 peas who know who I really am. I hope I can trust them. I think I can.
I went back and looked at my posts, I'm ok with them I think. Not proud of some of them but they are mine. I'm still getting more benefit from here than not.
Ps if I've ever quoted something any of you would rather delete go ahead and pea mail me with the thread link and I'll empty the quote.

i guess each person has to weigh the pros and cons i won't leave or change my info but i do think about what i post...especially in the heat of the moment as a general rule - if you aren't an asshole...you shouldn't have much to worry about gina I have to question the last statement, though. I admit I have a terrible memory, but I don't ever remember Carblove being mean to anyone. That's part of the reason why I'm so shocked that this whole thing happened at all. I just don't recollect her being one of the more "controversial" members here.

I call it my "scrapbooking group" because I know DH won't be remotely interested in it! (says she who hasn't scrapbooked in over 10 years, but still has lots and lots of supplies!).

My hair drives me up a freaking wall.
