to think that Off The Beaten Track was a mistake

[rolandweary]

this isn't a thread about a thread, it's a thread about a topic, and some of the threads in it

so hopefully not bad form

I think it was amistake - it seems to be used for all the wrong reasons. For example the shiney crew feeling they ought to post on there because people were complaining about them being a clique - that seems wrong to me, MN is public and nobody should feel they have to retire to a private area. And the BoM thread which is full of personal attacks and insults - people seem to retire onto that thread to make the sort of remarks they wouldn't make on the main boards

I think it should be got rid of. What does everyone else think?

? shiney? did you read what i wrote?

what was the BOM thread? someone pm me purlease.

That's what I was saying DM. But hey ho, maybe I'm just a dishonourable woman who is terrified that someone one is going to come and steal my cat and then my kids won't love me anymore. Talk about a victim mentality.

lol reality...i love the way you bounce onto threads all miffed!!
you've missed EVERYTHING....

I have no idea what the fuck is going on ...

i think so... yes. i didn't say anything bad at all, merely that if all the gang threads were otbt, the (very funny) people would maybe do more fun OPs on the main boards when they wanted a wider audience, which would be good for the rest of MN. i mean, i may be wrong, of course, but i don't think it's controversial? i'm confused by your aggression, seriously.

well drinking on the job wont help

but in all seriousness, if she is still hung up on your Dp then obviously she will be hurt to see her daughter playing happy families with him and his new girlfriend.

instead of taking things so personally why not try listening to what the "other side" have to say. If you try and hear what they are saying rather than reacting to it as if it were a personal dig at you, you may well get an insight into her mindset. this will inevitably help you deal with the xw in the long run.

cunty cunt holes

So, anyways op, are you pleased with the way this thread is going?

but there's no point in otbt unless all are using. which is probably why i only just found out about it, as it's not seemed so different to me (other than thinking i'd seen BoF around a bit more, and enjoyed that).

Somehow I'm imagining everyone on this thread in full-on Joan Crawford/Bette Davis "frightening glamour" melodrama catfight mode.

just a pm...that's all I'm asking for. Not that I won't sleep or anything.

But I am the 'other side' my DD has a step mum and I treat her with respect.

And no matter how hung up my DPs ex may or may not be on him that doesnt give her the right to treat me and her DD like shit.

piss faces

oh, okay. still don't know what that was all about tbh shiney, but consider me weirded out.

ok quick rundown.

Op posts saying OTBT is a waste of resources as teh shiney gang think they have to go hide there and the BOM people go there to bitch about everyone else.

everyone goes to look at the BOM thread to see if its true.

It is true. They all speak in some weird code no one but them can understand and then slag off quite openly other Mners.
They namechanged to take the piss out of other mners and everything. properly out of order stuff.

Mj came on an apologises that they fell under the spell of OTBT being seperate and hoped that no one would notice.

LadyT came on and was a bit of a twat.

some more of teh BOM people came on to try and defedn their pposition.

LAdy T threatened to leave.

LAdYT carries on posting sillyness.

Ok, so I'm feeling brave.... Was this thread created by the OP to out the BoM Ladies? After they'd disagreed on a SP issue? Thats what I have gathered....
