What would you bar on MN

[Happyeachday]

Lighthearted obviously .

So if you could bar anything emojis a topic etc on mumsnet what would it be.

I would bar all grammar checkers you know the ones that quote you and tell you to go back to school instant bar.

The constant treads about child maintenance.

And the double standards that women are always right on here.

What would you bar on mumsnet.

The words 'grim' and 'vile'

Fake misunderstanding when someone spells something wrong or uses a wrong word.

Sometimes it's just eye-rollingly rude.

However, sometimes it's downright vile. Will never forget the poor poster who posted that she'd been punched in the face by her partner and she was panicking about finances because they'd just "brought" a house and all her savings were used for the deposit.

A very regular poster posted in the second or third reply "I'm confused, you brought your house? Where did you bring your house?"

Every time I've seen them post since I think of that thread and how much of an utter thundercunt they were.

"Americanism"

Just because it wasn't common place in England when you were a kid doesn't make it American 😂

Especially things that Scottish and Irish immigrants to America took with them and still happen in Scotland and Ireland at Halloween

‘Can you link the data for that’🙄

Transphobic posts. Honestly it's disturbing and anyone with a fairer viewpoint is shot down on flames. I would actually get rid of the feminism board. It's so extreme. It's far from supporting feminism

Yes!!!

The ‘Terry’ or ‘Jimmy’? baby names posts 🙄

Saying ‘my husband thinks…..’ and then saying something that ten people have already said.

"I have a friend I usually go to dinner with, we'll call her Beryl".

No 'we' won't because I don't feel as though I had any say in it and if I did, I would've chosen a different name" 🤷‍♂️🤣

Oh and all the (m) and (f) in brackets.

I (25f) and my husband (26m) etc.

Well yes, we know he's '(m)' because the clue is in the bloody word 'husband'! 🤦‍♀️

The “You do know…” and then stating whatever they think the OP should know but is too stupid to figure out. “You do know that not all (fill in the blank)”

Take in ironing
Sell stuff on eBay
Become a childminder
Move to a cheaper area
As suggestions to how can I make money quickly

Also the words vile and grim!
Sorry just seen you beat me to it @ImFineItsAllFine 😊

Threads moaning about VAT on public/ private schools 🙄

Posters who are clearly out of touch but think they’re the expert in something because their precious offspring are barristers or doctors etc. Embarrassing

I'd ban using Chat GPT. If we wanted to put our answer into AI and get an answer we'd not bother coming on Mumsnet.

Yep. Women's rights are transphobic and feminism's about taking care of men's feelings. I think that's been made amply clear.

============================

I'd also ban everyone who manages to insert 'transphobia' into every second thread ...

First post nails it. Fuck off, you’re boring.

Also wow just wow and anyone saying Hubs/Hubby

Threads which descend into a “which celebrity would play which character” in the scenario in the OP. Instant ban

Am I missing something?

Said with wide eyed fake naivety

Posters rushing over to say " This is why I didn't have children" when some poor mum is struggling with a baby or toddler or SN child. Not helpful.

I would ban people, that moan about people, that quote the OP.

They very obviously actually are the type of people that quote the OP. 😁

Lighthearted, lighthearted, lighthearted...

How about the 'how clean is your...' (anything) threads. I just don't care.

Actually they don't need to be banned for everyone, just removed from my feed. That would be fine.

Trolls, perverts, narcs and ppl who resurrect Zombie threads.

People that have an opinion but won't allow others to have one.

The use of words like mother in law/in laws/husband when you're not married.

You do realise you just did a wall of unbroken text!?!
