Any oldtimer MNetters out there feel like they are outgrowing Mumsnet?

I might be feeling maudlin and incoherent (chesty cold, stomach bug, and exhausted after several months of 50 hour working weeks) but having put myself to bed this morning and allowing myself the treat of browsing Mumsnet properly for the first in ages...I feel like I have outgrown Mumsnet 😱😱 I can’t seem to find that many threads of interest to read any more. I think I joined MN about 13 or 14 years ago and I used to love it, finding it a constant source of laughter, advice, and kindness between people in similar siutaions or just seeking advice. These days the threads seem a bit samey, people very quickly and easily turn against each other, and you rarely if ever come across anyone you ‘know’ for a laugh and a catch up.

Any oldtimers out there - am I rosetinting the old days or have I actually outgrown MN?

Fair chance I am just too ill and should just shut up and put away the ipad though 😂

Hi there all,

It's a tad ironic that a thread about how much kinder MN was in the old days has become a bit of a bunfight. As old-timers, you know what MNHQ's "peace and love" messages are all about, and we're sure you're all familiar with our guidelines, so please, grab some Brew and Cake and try and stick to them.
