I have only been here for about five years and in that time I have seen the board evolve too...and in a good way. This is a great group of people! How has it evolved in your view? I love that my family references the Peas.... "ask the Peas." "what did the Peas say?" "did you post it to the Peas?" When I first was on the board there was so much ugly, nasty, trollish behavior. A lot of bickering and outright bad behavior. Not only on the political threads but on threads that were not that controversial. It entertained me when I didn't “know” anyone yet but started to grate on me after a while. The main handful that pulled that crap don't seem to be around any more and only pop up occasionally. It is just a lot more pleasant around here and that allows everyone to learn and evolve. It is easier to share different opinions without it turning into a brawl. Differences keep it interesting but trolling and instigating are a big turn off for me. It is a lot more mellow and humorous here now. I laugh almost every morning at some witty/snarky comment in a thread. I love all of the different points of view and have learned so much that I would never have known if I hadn't landed here. This is a nice place to hang out. |

I’m still a little hesitant to post much. But there have been days when you all are my best friends. I’m an introvert and don’t have many real friends.

Everyone's thoughts and comments are valid and welcome. I just love the board because someone is here 24/7 and it is a great feeling to know that somewhere in the world, no matter if day or night, sunny or snowing I can interact with another pea on any subject needed. Long may we log in and be here for each other in any shape or form as needed. |

Everyone's thoughts and comments are valid and welcome. Definitely true! And even if you think you don’t have much to add or that what you think has been said before, don’t let that stop you - we need everyone to participate to keep this place alive! 🙂 |
