Evil Netmums

Hi all!

Only my second post on here so far!

But...I really need to rant and wondered whether any of you fellow mums had a bad experience with Netmums?!

I've been using it as my main parents board lately (sorry!) but as soon as you express an opinion on there, the Moderators seem to be picking and choosing who they wish to ban and I was one of them! I think it's ridiculous that they create a 'public' forum, yet constantly edit and delete threads and posts?!

Grrrrrr ... Any other Netmums to Mumsnet converts on here...?! X

Why join a forum with an opening post slagging of another forum? Not going to win you any popularity contests is it?

LuisSuarezTeeth · 04/06/2013 10:08

Diary, what you need is a SPREADSHIT. Maybe borrow Maryz's?

DiaryOfAWimpyMum · 04/06/2013 10:19

It is more of spread shit, I was trying to be nice, keeping it to 0ne insult per post.

Sorry btw I am joking I have a fucked up weird sense of humour and have oh so much fun in my own head

DiaryOfAWimpyMum · 04/06/2013 10:20

"I guess I just didn't want to be on a forum where people are all yapping on about their 60k salaries and making me feel worthless & depressed !"

You better bugger off quick then, if you are likely to be offended by high salaries and people boasting. FGS, I was accused of flaunting it when I was considering buying two pairs of glasses once, and needed opinions on which to chose! How very dare I flaunt my riches and make other people feel bad and deprives. Why two glasses when I have only one pair of eyes.

usualsuspect · 04/06/2013 15:21

You should be happy with a monocle,having a pair of glasses is just showing off

Pagwatch · 04/06/2013 15:21

Did you use the 'I can never find the fucking things!' explanation Quint?
I have about six pairs of reading glasses. Sometimes I have a pair on my head while I am looking for a pair..
Grrrr

I could totally wear those.

I always think MN is for the more intelligent, gross stupidity ( unless you can laugh at yourself) and bigotry will earn you an arse barbecue on here

QuintessentialOldDear · 04/06/2013 17:13

No Pagwatch, I explained that as I had not bought new glasses in over 6 years, and had to make up for it! I think your explanation would have worked better. But I can see that in this day and age, I should be happy if I could afford a monocle and have good vision on ONE eye only.

crazynanna · 04/06/2013 17:28

I have been banned for life recently over there (too many run-ins). TBH I have always preferred it here, but felt loyalty to some interweb friends over there.

TheRealFellatio · 04/06/2013 17:32

I saw that thread Chrissie, but the deletions were so swift, including any responses to the person who took that stance, that I had no idea what had been said to who. That's what I hat about it. You miss all the arguments.

You don't have to register in your own name - I used a fake name. Who's to know?

TheRealFellatio · 04/06/2013 17:38

I have about six pairs of reading glasses. Sometimes I have a pair on my head while I am looking for a pair..

Pag I hate to break this to you, but you do realise that is an official sign of middle age, don't you?

CatherineofMumbles · 04/06/2013 17:38

Most of us dictate our posts and have our butlers type them.

Pagwatch · 04/06/2013 17:41

[sigh]

I think I slipped past middle age straight into batty pensioner.

Ilikethebreeze · 04/06/2013 17:44

I had no idea members of this forum were also members of that one too [naive me much?!]

TheRealFellatio · 04/06/2013 17:46

don't worry Pag, I do it too, although at the moment I only own one pair, and I was sick of retracing my steps all over the house trying to find where I left them last, so now they are on a string. Around my neck.

The shame.

Fellatio, I did re-register, with 3 different email add's, then my work comp, my iPhone, Kindle ... All were banned straight away and the reason given? Dual ID's ! How the heck they picked up on that God only knows as I hadn't even had time to re-post! All the IPs would have been different (well, 3 of them!) I think their mod's are bullies to be honest

Pagwatch · 04/06/2013 18:25

Hahaha. It comes to us all Fell. I bet on you it comes close to glamorous.

The depressing thing is that it is just one of a million ways in which I am turning into my mother

Ilikethebreeze · 04/06/2013 18:33

Who owns netmums? [cant be bothered to google it currently]

LuisSuarezTeeth · 04/06/2013 21:48

Katie I'm thick as a fuckin plank! Can I still join in?
