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?

I got a I think your grammar is awful once on a post with a link to a sarcastic but they thought it was witty link , TBH i dont 2 flying frigs who thinks my grammar is awful ,

...and not just for fucking Ulysses.

i visit another forum

where one poster

always posts like this

not sure why

perhaps to give her fingers a rest in between

or perhaps she thinks the readers are incapable

of

digesting

one

full

sentence!!

"No paragraphs/ too long- cba to read, sorry"

Yet you clearly could be arsed to post to tell us all how you couldn't be arsed to read it? Are you too thick to work it out without the nice fat gaps?

Just get to fuck you snidey-arse cunt.

Its them people what gently and politely point out that you are messing with our ocd tendencies putting non-aibus in aibu and so on. Followers of our leader Trillian who is unfailing nice but correct about it.

but they are arsed to actually post they are not arsed. arseholes!

Paranoid, I'm sorry are you on MNHQ payroll? No? So why does it truly matter if someone puts a thread in a place you disagree with? I mean TRULY matter, who does it harm?!

Bupcakes why are you telling us what to post! Are you mumsnet police or something?

One of the longest arguments I ever had on here was with one particular poster who is a bit of an arsehole posting immediately after my AIBU question with "oh I can't even be bothered to reply to this" But you obviously could, couldn't you, bitchface?

I am shocked. Just shocked. Horrified in fact.

I love this. So so true.

There's a lot of snobbery in here from the "oh I'm so popular you recognise my username" crowd.

You are popular... On an online forum.

Well lots of things don't truly do harm, or really matter, but one can still have an opinion on them.

And actually, in a small way, it does matter. People put loads of things in the wrong sections because there isn't enough traffic in the right ones, and then there is even less traffic in the right ones. Topics will dry up until everything is in AIBU, which gets the fight club responses. People who should really be in relationships for example where they would get kind and useful advice instead get aibu answers like "where's the fucking paragraphs" and "I'm not going to give you advice instead I'll pick apart your post and call you a troll" type stuff.

But mostly I'm just anal about neatness in these things. I can't be bothered most of the time, but occasionally I'll mention it. But why would that bother you if it doesn't matter what and where people post, surely the same goes for me?

Wasn't me was it Buppy?

Agree with your OP (and love the clip!). There are extremes I can't abide- the r word and graphic porn in an OP might make me double take- but otherwise well we're a grown up site (alledgedly) and it's ahem- directional approach has always been it's USP.

'Too Long'. - Op had warned it was long, had included nice paragraphs, what was the problem? FFS

It wasn't you Peachy, of course not! I've never seen you be an arsehole!

what the not like the ole days crew,mn gorn to the dogs...

or folk who do calls out to their pals to pile in when they dont like how threads progressing?

im kinda oblivious to it

i expect
spelling pedantry
rehashing of ole grudges of yore (im a bad un apparently)
and the fickos to say fuck ioff when no one agrees with them
and :( humphy faces
all part mn pagentry

It doesn't bother me...I just wondered the motivation. It's the paragraph hunters that irk me!

"But mostly I'm just anal about neatness in these things. I can't be bothered most of the time, but occasionally I'll mention it. But why would that bother you if it doesn't matter what and where people post, surely the same goes for me?"

OK, that doesn't bother me that much (advising on correct places for threads) It's more the picking on stuff that is a matter of taste that irks me. Not everyone agrees that it is irritating to put "..." in a thread title so why should anyone stop doing it because it personally offends you?

The thread redirection thing (although I don't really care but can see why others might) is just because it might upset the flow of the board.

totally agree

and i just love the AIBU police - what is it with them and their utter determination to either blast anyone who has done an "this is not an AIBU" or if it is an AIBU (in their eyes) then they feel the need to get aggressive. just hilarious!

and the people who feel they need to use MN expressions to be "part of the club" such as "Arf", "What the actual fuck" and "fuck the fuck off and when you get there etc etc etc"

i think a lot of people take MN just a wee but too seriously.....

Just a bit!

yes the gratuitous wee in mn phrases and conspicuous not a newbie you know

all smack of trying too hard...

how does a couple of words indicating that its not an AIBU (when it really obviously isn't) translate into being "determined to blast people and/or get aggressive"?

Projecting some major ishoos of your own right there. Like I said in another thread, some folks do insist in assigning so much emotion and intent to others, completely unwarranted. You must have some superpowers to know what randoms at a remote screen think or feel from a few lines of bare text.

ooh i hate the use of "newbie" too

it's a public web forum FFS, the length of time you've been posting means nothing, it's what you have to say!

my posts are generally meaningless crap, mind you......

Android I didn't explain myself very well

what i meant was that either one is blasted for being non-AIBU compliant OR

in event it is deemed to be a proper AIBU, there are always some posters who seem to want to raise the aggression levels

but seriously, you are guilty a bit of it yourself when you have immediately accused me of having "major ishoos". Notwithstanding the fact I did not perhaps explain myself too clearly, i find your approach a bit inflammatory.....
