Site stuff

I want tickers and avatars .... I appreciate others may have an opinion on this, which is lovely, and good for you. I'm not going to be dissuaded though.

The site is a smorgasbord board of pointless lary coloured sales pitch and bumph.

It's bursting with venomous spite and bilious stupidness some days (amongst the stalwart niceness soldiering on regardless) , so on those days I'd like to see a spot of cheer.

A unicorn crapping a rainbow, or a humorous meerkat picture with a whimsical caption.

I want kittens and puppies and flowers.

I want tickers telling me how long it was since the poster last handed out grips.



We've been told Mumsnet is moving on.

If it is, I want the the future to be sparkly and twee to the fucking max.

What would be nice is if we could have a choice of pastel background colours

And those cutesy emocions! They are great because if you are an adult woman, having a range of "don't take me seriously, I'm really just a kewpie" emocions is marvelous.

How about coloured thread titles so you could have a Brown Klaxon to warn against poo

Yes!!

I want sparkly, glittery tickers

It's been 7 minutes since I last rolled my eyes at a thread

It's been 4 minutes since I spotted a troll

It's been 11 minutes since I felt like a terrible parent.

I would like to be able to edit other people's posts and tickers

I want colour. And glitter. And sparkles.

It's been 1 hour since someone mention bullying or cliques or royalty

Tortoise, that looks disturbingly like comic sans [narrows eyes]

DrankSangriaInThePark · 22/05/2014 11:23

Actually, I think, on reflection, that all things considered, and at the end of the day, the whole site should have comic sans as its default, n'est-ce pas?

....and Tantrums, leaving aside the typos, if it's been as long as 4 minutes since you've seen a troll, then you ain't putting the hours in girl.

it's a well known fact* that comic sans can induce rage and hallucinations when used in the wrong hands.

Can we have hashtags too?
