To think that MN seems to have had quite a lot of newbies over the past few days?

[Pioneer]

Is it just me?

Seem to have opened up a lot of threads where the poster is new to MN. Not that this is a problem of course - I think it's lovely. Though I am almost certain it has something to do with the massive amount of free advertising MN has had from the Netmums v Mumsnet battle !

I think I registered on NM ages ago but was repelled by the lack of intelligence amount of tripe on there

It's gone quiet

Has she gone??

I am new too :)

And dare i say it......i came over from netmums!! i do like netmums and have been on there for years but i came over to be nosey after the whole 'war' thingy and liked it here so i stayed lol, hope thats ok!

and i like the fact i can say fuck without it being starred out lol

Welome dingdongmrs!!

Slice of cake? :)

I'm fairly new, haven't posted a lot here but have found myself visiting more often recently.
I use nms as well and although there are a lot of huns and text speak there are also some lovely, intelligent, helpful people there.
But I have developed a bit of an addiction towards AIBU here now I've got the hang of the site!

Thank you Harryan, i love cake! :o

I don't understand why everyone says MN is harder to navigate. I went over for a look round and can't work it out at all!

i guess its what your used to. im used to nm's so here is quite different to work out lol but im getting there!

im also trying to get used to not saying hun! and putting kisses and all then im also trying to work out what kind of thing is the norm here like 'lol' ect. oh and getting used to be able to swear is quite fun! theres quite a few rules on netmums which have been hammered into me now, i have to untame myself lol

I like the straight talking on here, i'd never heard of netmums before I saw it on MN! I went to look at netmums but like dingdong said its got a very different layout so I came straight back here :-)

Personally,I think it's great that there has been a new influx of posters.

I think thesecondcoming has been abducted by the hunnis

whats c'n'p'ed??!! god you can tell im new pmsl

i like monkeys lol

whoops x post

Oh no she has been brainwashed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i do call everyone hun on netmums, i think its because everyone does, it just turns into habit more than anything. i call my husband hun and he tells me off saying "im not a netmum" lol, so yes i think we do do it too much!!

its ok though cos in a few hours/days i will be like you lot lol

seriously what is c'n'p'ed?!! lol dont get brainwashed, that would be just my luck, i join you all here and you all bugger off over there!

look into my eyes dingdongmrs look into my eyes

you will no longer say "hun/hunni/xxx/lol"

lol

copied and pasted dingdongmrs

cut 'n' pasted I think dingdong

Agree with poshwellies

haha i never did 'hunni' doesnt look right! it should be spelt honey, but then thats too affectionate for strangers online! see im quite fussy!! pmsl

thank you alcrowley

PMSL at "I'm not a Netmum" from Dingdong's DH. Newb here as well. I only got preggles recently so needed some sensible support. I hadn't heard of Netmum before the silliness. Looked at it, all the colour scared me.
