But what about all the sensible people who've hidden AIBU?

YABU because you didn't phrase this as an "am I being unreasonable?" question, when you EASILY could have.

Nope. Woollyhugs, housekeeping, baby names to name but a few, all off of AIBU. Mumsnet can be a very calm place away from here, so YABU Grin

General traffic is AIBU. It can include anything. And it does.

YABU we need to keep the Realationship board as well or Anyfucker will be homeless.

Could we just rename it general traffic. And then get rid of everything else.

Relationships. Chat. Baby names. They’re all frequently used. AIBU is incredibly harsh so if someone wants to query something they often go to another forum.

Please don’t remove Telly Addicts or Christmas without my permission either. Brew

I prefer chat.
AIBU is just ridiculous half the time.

There are other forums? Shock

Keep all the other categories and change AIBU to 'General goadiness'.
There are many areas of great thoughtfulness and help over many subjects, AIBU is not one of them.

If people didn't post everything in AIBU for traffic things might be different.

AIBU should be renamed.

First prize to the winner of the renomination.

AIBU is not as bad as people make out - I’ve seen worse on the politics forum / feminism / relationships / & even style & beauty.

It’s just the ridiculous crap that gets posted here.
‘AIBU to eat a cheese sandwich for lunch’ ......🙄

AIBU is the biggest traffic generator here just the same. So it will be going nowhere anytime soon.

You mean threads like “AIBU to ask if you like fish fingers?” isn’t a totally non AIBU question?! Grin In all the “AIBU to ask...?” threads, I always want to tell them they are BU for asking but that’s dickish, so I don’t.

AIBU to ask you what colour your bedding is
AIBU to ask you about living in some suburban town
AIBU to ask you if my DH is a dickhead
AIBU to have breakfast after I've had a shower

Hmm
