To be getting a bit fed-up with the Mumsnet Gestapo popping up everywhere?

[BupcakesandCunting]

"Oooh that's not FUNNY"

"Oooh your username is RUBBISH"

"Oooh you SWORE"

"Oooooh you used capitals"

"Ooooh you used ... in a thread title"

"Oooh you have not posted in a way that I have deemed acceptable."

Who died and made you owner of the board? AIBU if from now on every time I see a self-appointed board police on patrol to link to and tell them to wind their necks in?

FromThe Farside made RebeccaMumsnet say... 'Mumsnet is lightly moderated FromTheFarside...'

This is what makes MN good; all the 'FFS' and 'BORING, check the Archives first' is what I'd term TheDarkSide

YANBU

Supertits!

The key there is what you said, rather than you. Which is allowed.

Yes but if someone or a group are continuously telling you you're talking shite, with no constructive criticism that's surely taking the piss?

Or you could just be talking shite?

To be fair, your username is a red rag to a bull in that respect: it's like walking round holding a big sign saying "I'm Always Right". You've got to expect people to pull you up on things if that is demonstrably not the case.

I do give a shit. And I'm not thick skinned, or over sensitive either, I'm just your average prick who bleeds, I wonder about peoples motivation to heap scorn on a seemingly normal poster for some small issue. Then I feel a bit sorry for them forget to infer strongly that they are a tosser.

We can all be twattable in our posting at times, if posters can't learn from it and move on than the only way the problem will be removed is when HQ query why they are being reported so frequently.

Yeah!

All this nonsense fair boils my vagine.

My username should have no influence at all, judge my posts but at least have the manners to tell me exactly what's so wrong about it.

I don't agree about usernames

If you meet a stranger on the tube who goes "See you I'm fucking fed up I fucking hate everyone etc" you tend to edge away.

If it's someone you know, you might say" There there are you feeling quite the ticket?"

Common sense.

Rational, you aren't the first and you won't be the last. Best advice is stay away.

I'm not sure why my username would piss anyone off. Shouldn't we all be rational? Why would that be a bad thing?

Stay away?

Oh, I think usernames do make a difference on some level. I can understand that you might not like that, but it's just reality.

Stay away from them boards what trouble you.

We should all be rational.

However.

That doesn't answer my questions about my username.

Boffy, did you know there's a real nutjob going by the name of boffyflow?

Wants everyone put in homes...

Last post directed at lebof.

I think the point Bof was making is that if you call yourself Rational, and others perceive you not to be, it may be infalmmatory

I've been here 10 years - am I Chief constable?

If they can provide evidence that I'm being irrational I'll happily accept that.

"Yes but if someone or a group are continuously telling you you're talking shite, with no constructive criticism that's surely taking the piss?"

Or maybe you are just talking shite.

I get what BOF means, on a subliminal level names to alter your perception, look at how popular the "Post what you think a poster looks like" threads are.
